Let's see.... got the book at 1 a.m., read until 3, and read at least 6-7 hours 2day? So awhile. Wow, the end was confusing, and the epilogue a bit cheesy i must say.

I got home at 1:30 am, started to read at 1:45, and at 4:00 am I had finished the book.

VAGUE SPOILERS AHEAD

I read it again this afternoon. I enjoyed it both times, although the epilogue was a bit disappointing for me and I felt some of the articles and passages from 'books' could have been cut down. Also, the time Harry, Hermione and Ron seemed to waste during the book was a bit aggravating to me, but otherwise I enjoyed it a great deal.

Hmm...picked it up at 2...started reading about 3 I think...I'd say it took me about 5-10 hours but I don't feel like thinking too much about it. Too spaced out. But I finished it in less than 24 hours, not constantly reading.

A week I guess.I'm a slow reader when it comes to books,but Harry Potter is an exception.I read more than half of HBP in abt 6 hrs(which is a big thing.)Since I've got other things to do in my day too I guess it would take me some time.But when I'm consistent I can read fast.Who knows I might read it earlier than I'm expectin.

I was still reading HBP when I got #7 (as my interest in Potter only returned after watching OotP)... But I finished #7 in about 8-9 hours probably, I can't say I counted the hours.

It took me about... 10 hours or something. But English is not my native language, so I have a damn good reason to not read as fast as you guys big grin
