[the_old_crowd] Re: So how will you be reading?

[JoAnna Wahlund]

My 6-month-old daughter is spending the night at Grandma's; if all goes 
well, I'll have the book read before we go pick her up Saturday morning! I'm 
tempted to stay up all night and read as I did OotP (took me from 1am-6am), 
but as I don't know how long Elanor will be content to stay at Grandma's, I 
don't know if I'll be able to sleep in... so better safe than sorry.

At any rate, I should be able to get the book read before Saturday is over; 
my husband has promised to care for the baby while I read. :)
