Just finished it. Picked it up around 1330 yesterday, started reading
it somewhere around 2300ish, and done by 0830.....
Pretty good book, although I wouldn't recommend it for younger children
(ie pre-10ish). And I'm not even going to put in spoiler space, since
there's nothing I can say about it that wouldn't spoil it for someone,
so you'll just have to wait until either you read it or someone
inconsiderately adds a couple of blank lines of "spoiler space".....
Oh, and for the record for those interested in putting in things like
"spoiler space", my screen is 32 lines long, so you'd need to put in at
least 32 blank lines for an adequate amount of room.....

Ah, I was wondering when someone would post about that. I started
reading at 12:30 am and finished at 7:00 pm, having not slept at all
that night. And you're right about the spoilers. I can't think of
anything to say that wouldn't give away at least a little, except that
I was shocked, and I can't wait for the next one, though I have a
pretty good guess of what's going to happen.

Yesterday around noon.
And I have it on CD for the week, so I'm limited to how fast I can "read"
it. Plus, I'm not sure my room mate would want to listen, and I've no head-
phones.
