Harry Potter Finale Breaks Another Record

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows won't materialize in bookstores for another three months, but J.K. Rowling's final installment in her boy-wizard series has already broken a second record. (Click here for the first.) According to Barnes & Noble, pre-orders for the 784-page title have exceeded 500,000, making it the publication with the most advance requests in the chain's history. Sheesh. Hope they're using recycled paper.

My friends are all buying theirs at midnight. I can't go with them, because I'd read the end right there and tell everyone in the store what happens. I try not to tempt the demon inside me.

Yep...I already told my husband that he's going to be taking care of our 3 1/2 year old all day on July 21st, because I'll be too busy reading!

I'll be picking mine up at midnight. Woo-hoo!
