I just know one of you douchebags will post the ending in a thread title, so as of tomorrow, I'm not going on AT forums (or any other forums) until I'm finished. I've waited 7 years for this dammit, if someone spoils it for me I'm going to kill them!

Why? The book won't be released until Saturday night. Why not stop posting Friday?

leaks?

I really doubt there will be any. This is the seventh book, it'll be locked down harder than any of the other ones.

There are already scattered reports of leaks getting out according to mugglenet.com, some of which may be legitimate. Even if they're not, I don't want to hear anything.

You won't have any reason to believe them since no one can verify.

If I say... Cho Chang kills Harry Potter!! OMFG!!111! Will it have ruined the book for you? No. Even if that's the case, you wouldn't realize it until you've actually read that part in the book.

The trucks Bloomsbury will use are fitted with satellite tracking systems costing up to £1,000 pounds, which will reveal whether any of the vehicles deviate from their intended route. The books are on sealed pallets fitted with alarms to prevent tampering.

A spokesman for Bloomsbury said: ?we have a litigation specialist poised 24 hours a day, seven days a week to deal with any breaches. It is our intention to enforce the embargo vigorously and seek an immediate injunction if required.? While experts put the cost of all this at £10 million, the lengths to which publishers have gone are not surprising.

Yeah that's a pretty weak postcount for joining two years ago. Come on, pick up the pace.

I just fail to see the logic to avoid something so long before the release. Are you not going to leave the house? Browse the web at all? Talk to friends? Talk to ANYONE?

I can't wait for this Harry Potter crap to be over with, but as long as it has Americans reading, I guess it can't be that bad.

It's tough for me to take the threats of a Harry Potter fan seriously.

Oh, and BTW, MikeyIs4Dcats is right; Hermione Dies!

It's nice and all that you want to go read your book w/o any spoilers, but Why TF did you feel you needed to make a thread about it telling us. Who is going to even know you are gone? Seriously, I wonder what goes through people's head like the OPs when they decide to tell everyone something so trivial as this.
