We just received our pre-ordered Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince books. They are sitting here in a stack, looking at me.

It is a great, great temptation.

Well if you give in to that temptation, don't spoil it! (I can tell you if I had that stack next to me I think I might give in...)

Well, there was that oath in blood we signed, promising on pain of death not to distribute or read the books until the 16th...

Dude. That's pretty cool. Whose blood did you use?

Mine, of course. What I won't do for books these days...

Too bad it wasn't yesterday we needed to sign it. o_O

*gasp* How'd you guys get them early?! I pre-ordered mine, too, but it isn't here yet!

Don't give in. *stern look*

Hah, we're special. Bookstores and libraries get them early, so we have time to get them out to the public--you mere plebans--on the proper day.

Wherer did you order them from?! And how is it that "they" let you have them early?

I'm a librarian--our book jobber sends them out early enough for us to have them ready for the shelf by the 16th. =)

I would give in. Jail time would just give me more time to read!
