Who's buying it or getting it this Saturday when it comes out?
I certainly am, myself! I just paid for the pre-order at the very last hour (before the bookstore I am getting it at closed for the evening), before the prices go up tomorrow (here in Canada anyways) to normal price.

Gonna wait a few weeks, I planned 2 mini vactaions to chicago for the next 2 weekends anyways.
i was going to preorder it... then i realized i went on a wild goose chase for the last book and didnt read it till last summer... :-/ I may go to one of the shindigs...my hogwarts uniform needs dusting off
Ah, the 5th book! That's the only book that I bought both the Canadian and American versions of!
I've read that at least 5 times through!
The first time I read it, which began on the Saturday morning it was released (which was incidentally also my ex-girlfriend's birthday), it took me exactly 3-½ days to read it!

I ordered it on Amazon about two months ago! :) Now I've got until Saturday to prepare myself for 672 pages...
I so badly want the American version of HBP even more than the Canadian version, which is saying a lot! The cover artwork looks much cooler, and I'm sure the chapter illustrations will be just as good, if not better than those in book 5.
The Canadian editions feature no chapter illustrations, which sucks

i got the english version of the order of the phoenix...my mother was like "Thats ugly...you flew over here to get...THAT?"
I preordered it online...1 MORE DAY!!
i'm downloading it right now :)
My girlfriend is extremely lucky. She works at Barnes & Noble and she got today off, even though they were going to extend working hours from midnight until 2a.m., and possibly 3a.m.
The store I'm getting the book at is located in the City Centre Mall East, and so they won't open until 10 A.M. on Saturday morning, but that's still earlier than what time most of the other stores are opening in that mall (bar the food court downstairs, McDonald's in particular).
I envy the webmasters of MuggleNet and The Leaky Cauldron, because they get to interview J.K. Rowling, with 6 winning questions from message board users on both sides having been picked (with two alternates just in case, I think) by website visitors, for the release of the book.

Really? Where did you fly to to have her say that?
