Personally, I'm planning to visit my local bookshops at the midnight openings, and see if there's either some nutter in costume, or assholes who plan to spoil the book for me to beat up.
Hopefully, it'll be more lively than when the PS3 got released.

I will buy the book eventually, I wanna know how the story ends and all, but I'm not that big of a fan, and anyway, midnight here would be freezing cold.

I just hope no one spoils stuff for me >.>

Haha... I got Half-blood Prince at midnight, I'll probably do the same for this. I hope this one's longer.

...As for being in costume.. We joked about me pulling my high school graduation robes out, slapping a fake tattoo of Harry's scar on my head and sending me out as a genderbent Harry, but we also talked about it last time, but I have a bit too much self respect for that.

I'm dreading it because Half-Blood Prince was...not quite as satisfying as I had hoped it would be. I can't help thinking that this is going down the same negative route, and I'm not a negative person in the least so to get me actually thinking like that is enough to set off alarm bells. That, and the English cover really puts me off. xD I know, I know. Don't judge a book by it's cover, literally, but you can't say that the monstrosity on the front of DH makes you want to read it more.
Nevertheless, I will be buying it. Not going at midnight for it because I am lazy and I don't like fighting through hordes of far more hardcore fans for it. I'll just pick on up at Savacentre or ASDA or something.

Are you kidding? We get THIS:
Crap, huh? What the hell is Hermione doing? I wouldn't recognise her as Hermione if it wasn't that it'd be really odd to slap some other girl on the cover with Ron and Harry...

(The reason they're long is that they're wraparounds, one big picture on both the front and the back. Like the front of the book with the title is just harry, you don't see Voldemort unless you look on the back.

...So THAT'S how they're selling these worthless crap books to us! I haven't enjoyed the series very much since Goblet of Fire.
And yes, for the record, I'm going to get a copy just so I can finish out the series. Damn me being a marketing pawn.

I've been enjoying the books less (they peaked at Azkaban, I think), but I still like them a lot. I think I'd like it more if I wasn't absolutely terrified of its fandom, though. The sheer volume of rabid HP fans terrifies me. o.O
They're good books... just overrated.

Ooh, and for the record, the UK covers have been very crap of late. The HBP one:
GoF's was crap, too. The only really nice one was OotP, since that just had Fawkes on for whatever reason. Yes, I know it was the Order of the Phoenix, but it's not like he has a main part, is it?
Haha Phoenix. God, I'm pathetic.

You're right, there's a dizzyingly vast array of deranged Potter-heads out there, and they do tend to freak me out with how seriously they take everything...

Ooh, Gringotts is a good idea. Judging by the cover (and how HBP left off) jewels and coins and such are going to be important, so Gringotts would be a good place.
Plus, I think Diagon Alley will be of some importance, simply because I think Ollivander's going to be some evil guy in the end.

Up until the Epilogue, it was awesome and probably my favorite in the series.

We looked around, quietly picked it up, and walked off.
You may have a leaked copy of the book, but I have a giant Harry cardboard cutout.

I rather thought the ending was a bit anti-climatic and confusing. I agree, though, the epilogue seems like something out of a really shitty fanfiction.
