I have a friend whose kids received the first three books for Christmas a 
year ago.  When I had knee surgery last March she loaned them to me to help 
pass the time during my recovery.  I must have read them three times through 
in the week I had them!

When GoF came out I had arranged to borrow it from another friend who had 
pre-ordered it from Amazon.  I had this INSANE notion that I could wait the 
day or two it would take her to read it.   But the closer it got to midnight 
the more I knew I couldn't wait even another minute and so found myself in my 
car, driving through a nasty electrical storm, to be among the first in line. 
 Naturally, once I had my own copy of GoF, I simply could not rest until I 
had 1-3 as well!
