Squirrelhunter91 Posted July 18, 2005 Report Share Posted July 18, 2005 Anyone else reading this? I got the book on the 16th and I am up to Chapter 12. I know that I may be a little too old for the book series, but it was something I started reading back when I was 9 and I have to finish up on it. I can't leave myself hanging. Just wondering...

Tominator Posted July 18, 2005 Report Share Posted July 18, 2005 Re: Harry Potter & the Half-Blood Prince My oldest son Joe, (Joe's 11), ordered his book back in January, got it Saturday around lunch time, finished it yesterday around 3 p.m. Want to know how it ends? LOL, my son the book worm. 652 pages in a little over a day. It would have been a day, but I actually told him to put the book away Saturday night around 10 and go to bed. No wonder he won't play football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HuntingInMaine Posted July 18, 2005 Report Share Posted July 18, 2005 Re: Harry Potter & the Half-Blood Prince I picked the book up sunday afternoon and finished it at about 10 pm. I haven't been disappointed with any of her books, but didn't care much for her decision to kill off the person she did in this book! I don't think you can really call them a kids book when it is over 600 pages! (at least that's what I tell myself...) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tedicast Posted July 18, 2005 Report Share Posted July 18, 2005 Re: Harry Potter & the Half-Blood Prince My wife bought it on Saturday. I'm trying to wait patiently for her to finish it, so I can read it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCH Posted July 19, 2005 Report Share Posted July 19, 2005 Re: Harry Potter & the Half-Blood Prince Here's my prediction for future books: Snape is actually a good guy. Hagrid is a bad guy. Neville Longbottom is supposed to kill Voldermort...not Harry. Dumbledore and Sirius come back for the final book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
preacherman Posted July 19, 2005 Report Share Posted July 19, 2005 Re: Harry Potter & the Half-Blood Prince never read or watched any of the Harry Potter stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deershed Posted July 19, 2005 Report Share Posted July 19, 2005 Re: Harry Potter & the Half-Blood Prince Can't say I ever read any of the books either.Sure glad they finally hit the book stores. I work where for the last couple months we've been making them.For security reasons all doors were closed and it got hot and sticky in there. If your book falls apart it must be one somebody else made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tedicast Posted July 19, 2005 Report Share Posted July 19, 2005 Re: Harry Potter & the Half-Blood Prince [ QUOTE ] Im gonna wait for the DVD [/ QUOTE ] I have read all the books, and seen all the movies, so far the movies don't even come close to being as good as the books.

HuntingInMaine Posted July 19, 2005 Report Share Posted July 19, 2005 Re: Harry Potter & the Half-Blood Prince For all you harry potter fans who are done with the book and waiting for the next, try reading Eragon by Christopher Paolini. It is a like a mixture of Harry Potter and The Lord of the Rings. I read it the other weekend while camping and it was great. Couldn't believe a teenager wrote the book!

Snape made an Unbreakable Vow with Malfoy's mom. Either he follows thru with protecting Malfoy or he dies. I think Hagrid is a harmless giant with a big heart. Neville, that's possible..... What are you talking about Dumbledore and Sirius come back? Dumbledore disappears at the end of this book? Sirius is dead. He died at the Ministry at the end of the 5th book.

Palssonater Posted July 19, 2005 Report Share Posted July 19, 2005 Re: Harry Potter & the Half-Blood Prince Jenn just picked the book up yesterday. She gives me flak about spending money on shotshells and then goes and buys this huge expensive book! I must admit. The movies are good. I should really read the books. Maybe I will borrow it after she is done. She'll have it finished before noon today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
