Theaterbaby,

You're killing me. As an avid reader I can't stand to hear people say they would rather watch the movie than read the book. The book is always better than any movie version it spawns. Characters are more developed and have more dimension in a book and, one can get lost in a book and imagine the world they are raeding about. That's more fun than having it shown to you. As much as I've enjoyed the movies bcause they were true to the book, I am very glad I read the books.

Anyway, I've read the other four books and now am spending sleepless nights staying up to read this one.

LOL I used to an avid reader; I don't know what happened!? Wait, yes I do....television and DVD's happened LOL
It takes me days just to finish reading a magazine (every article). How sad

Actually, I do pick up a Shakespeare play from time to time, or a Biography...but even with Biographies, I tend to read half and then move on to another book. I never finish what I start, even if I'm really interested in what I'm reading.

I got it finally today, I didn't go at Midnight because some clueless moron employee (who was wrong by the way) said only the first 300 ppl who reserved the books would get them at Midnight. So we "reserved" ours for the 50% off deal, but they never called back at it and got it 50% off today when we went.

I haven't started reading because Im too wrapped up in Wicked. Im at the very of the 4th section out of the 5 sections. It's now starting to include some of the Wizard of Oz characters. I think I'll save Book 5 Christmas Time. I've been waiting 3 years for it and I really don't want to speed read it and end up waiting again for a 6th book so fast.

I finished it two days ago. It was so dark with quite a few twists. As far as the character who dies, I have yet to find someone who guesses the right answer. All I will say is that it's so horrible that I cried.
I will echo someone else by asking how long we'll have to wait for the sixth book. PLEASE not another three years.

Give us(or at least PM me with a hint). Is it a main character, or a supporting one (and were they in the first 2 books, because I only saw the movies?) lol
