Oh. I still can't find it, so I'll just have to wait for that YTMND to discover the humor of it all.

Does that rule about lycanthropes even hold true in the Harry Potter universe?

Hasn't it? I feel like it's one of those things that was explained that I totally forgot about 2 pages after I read it.

If it's not they should be burned.

I'd spent 15 minutes fighting people off it...

They kept trying to steal it and read the last page :P

Hug your friend for me. Tell him somebody from the internet you've never met wanted you to do so.

Are you joking? I was at a release (I didn't get a book but my friends did...the only reason I was there is 'cause I was at a party nearby that got busted so I went with them) and it was no problem.
Then like two days later I was in a store and saw shelves and shelves of them.
Is it just that nobody in Atlanta likes Harry Potter?

More like when you print many millions (I think it was 12 million?) copies and "only" sell 8.5 million of them, you've still got a few million books floating around

I refused to leave the house or turn on the computer until I had finished. Though now, I realize I would've been just fine.
