Potter 7...

Bloody hell!

Nah, I'm *not* happy with the news - the Book 7 release date of July 21 2007. I could've well waited 'til 2008 or 2009. Especially not with the OotP film coming out at just the same time - it's way too much Potter at once, and I won't be able to savour and digest either properly. And fandom probably won't be either.

Am also in distinctly two minds about being at Sectus while it happens - I prefer to bury myself in a room/secluded spot and read through a new book, and wouldn't that be a waste of time, in London with so many people to chat to? On the other hand, it could perhaps even be fun? So hard to imagine what it might be like...

Still, it's way too bloody early! I don't want speculation to end yet! *wails*

I'm thinking that, after all, there could be no better place to come down from DH than among Sectus friends. But I'm still emotionally wrung out by the idea of it being here so soon, AND the idea that the end of my lovely England trip is going to be all waiting to get the book and reading the book and sobbing, instead of the fun touristy things that I was planning for those few days. I'm entitled to be wrought.

Exactly - it's just too soon :). And of course hell *either* on the touristy things (on which I'd also hoped at least a little bit, combined with book-shopping) *or* on the fandomy side (and to be honest, I can't see myself not reading the book at the earliest opportunity, or hope to get out unspoiled even if I had that much restraint... Damn! Timing really sucks here.

But... whee! You're coming after all!?! The last thing I heard was Anne making hopeful noises, but nothing for sure! *squees*
