[HPFGU-OTChatter] Heralding in the HBP

[Sherry Gomes]

Last time, I had two friends over my place for the weekend to read the book.
We went to the store at midnight.  I picked up my audio book, and my friend
picked up her print book.  we went back to my place with hot chocolate and
cookies and started reading the audio book.  We spent the weekend reading.
well, I disappeared when the Umbridge parts got too bad, and I couldn't
handle them--the quill and all.  But we did not much but read that book all
weekend.  I would like to do the same again.  Right now, I live with friends
who have four kids. the mom and 2 or 3 of the kids are big fans, and I've
already talked to them about us all going at midnight to get our books.
I'll also invite a couple friends again to read, read, read!

I have a question for everyone.
 
How will you herald in the Half-Blood Prince?
 
I asked this question of my 11 year old son last night while we were sitting
at the movies waiting for it to start.
All of the previous books, I have read aloud to my kids (they are -now- 22,
19 and 11).  I call my daughter long-distance and put her on speaker phone.
They love it when I do the voices.  I also have some former co-workers who
want to be in on the next book.  Well, here is the next book.  I am going to
read aloud again.  I want to make something special out of the whole day and
night of reading and was hoping to get some ideas.
 
How will each of you be celebrating?  Will you be reading alone?  With
others?  A special room?  By candle-light?  Special foods?  Music in the
background?  In your bed with the covers over your head and your flashlight
out (like at the beginning of POA)?
