Oh dear, I'm going to sound horribly HP obsessed here.
Well, at least I'm in good company for a confession of
this sort. :D

I've got all but Order of the Phoenix in hardcover,
Canadian editions (thanks to an ex-coworker who
absconded with my copy of OotP), the US hardcover
edition of OotP, a Canadian paperback of OotP with a
printing error that has the back cover copy reading
the synopsis for GoF, both schoolbooks, PS and PoA in
Russian (hard cover), PoA in German (hard cover), the
first 4 paperback editions in French, PoA in  Spanish
(paperback), PS in Polish (paperback) and a paperback
edition of OotP in Portugese that was gifted to me
(and signed) by the translator. 

I've also got a couple copies of SS in paperback (US,
obviously) and a US copy of CoS in paperback. I've got
additional hardcover copies of the first 4 books,
Canadian editions. I take a copy every time I go to a
big HP gathering or conference and have people write
in them for me. It's fun to back and look at books
I've had signed a couple years ago and remember the
fun that accompanied whatever event I was at. 

Oh, and, no, I don't read any of the other languages
aside from English and French and my French is so
unused and rusty that I need a French/English
dictionary handy. :)

No wonder my husband says we need an addition to the
house for all the HP stuff (because, you know, there's
lego and toys and figures and such). ;D

Sheryll, not at all obsessed - why do you ask?
