David you are not alone!
My local bookstores are not even going to stay open till midnight, so 
I have to wait until 8:00am the 21st, but they are going to have a 
party there.
I want to get in, buy it, and get out as fast as I can.
I need alone time to read and enjoy. I don't want to stand around 
with a bunch of people even if they are, like me, huge fans. Mainly 
because first of all, I'd have to wait some more to start reading 
(the horror!), and secondly (heavens I hope not) overhear some 
discussion about it, or someone reading out loud! I want to have the 
chance to get it and read it myself first!
Parties should be saved for later when everyone has comfortably read 
the book, and CAN discuss it and socialize and have fun.
That's just my opinion of course.

Of course, if there were a party later on, I still probably wouldn't 
go because I'm mostly anti-social (some people say shy for politeness 
sake) all the time anyway. Unless there were some pretty darn good 
door prizes, or free goodies of course.
