I fell asleep for about an hour around Chapter 10, dreamed (dreamt?) fitfully about Harry Potter and imagined it was all part of the book before waking up and just reading. I kept pausing but didn't feel tired, so I kept going on. At one point, I looked out my window and noticed the dark blue sky...so I fed into an impulse, threw a scarf around my neck and drove to the beach to watch the sunset...book in tow.
It ended up being quite poignant because I read about a random sunrise in the book while the sun was rising (this is not a spoiler in any way, it was just a sunrise). That was a pretty neat feeling. Plus, I got to sit on the lifeguard chair! woo!
I don't think I'll ever be awake early enough to see a sunrise over the ocean ever again (unless its winter and then it will be much colder) but I am glad I did it last night.
Even though right now I am so tired I have no idea how I will work 8 hours...

So, how was it?
My cousin had a copy today at a family gathering. I glanced at the last page for less than a second. It said something about somebody smiling. That's all I know.
It was really good, really involved. I felt drained at the end, but enjoyed reading it the entire time. Beyond that I will not say because my blog is an HP spoiler-free zone!
Brilliant, and beautiful photo.
