went into town at 4pm after work, thinking 'shame, they'll all be gone' only to find that every shop had them discounted - a tenner in Waterstones! HMV had piles of them and I gave in and bought one in Tescos for £9 - what happened there then?

Oh, and because she gives money to the labour party. I will not be buying anything else of hers if she's just going to give my cash to them.

Because hp was very badly written. Good plot, but she should have got someone else to write it.

I'm sure her adult one will be just as bad.

I only ever bought Harry potter book discounted. I never buy hardbacks only paperback but I didn't realise she had a new book out.

The over-hype about this is incredible - on the front of the Times it says 'Rowling to revive the novel?'

Having read the reviews I think it's definately one to get from the library!
