I'm not reading the epilogue this weekend.
Not because of the content - I'm fully spoiled for the general info in it - but because as long as I don't, the series isn't over for me.

There will still be more canon for me to read.

Anyone else doing the same?

Frankly, I'm considering just not reading the book...returning it to the store after my husband reads it and waiting to skim it in the library when the demand is over if I feel compelled to know any details about it.

Anyone else doing the same?

No. :))

I kind of want to do that. *_*

I want to, but my curiosity will not allow me to do so.

Wow...I'm not the only one who's thought of this.

I admire your patience. For me however the struggle simply will be to keep from getting frustrated I'm not reading fast enough tonight and skipping to the epilogue when I'm only halfway through book. If I make it to the end I'll be happy and read right then. As long as I still have friends to chat, squee, read, and meet in random train stations lol then the series and fandom isn't over for me..... I hope *meep*

There will soon be a third fandom - the third fandom ends before the epilogue. Personally, I'm with the epilogue as far as it goes, which isn't very far, in fact. But I am thinking I'll identify with the sans epilogue fandom most.

...as long ass I don't?

I think you mean as long as/s you don't!

Yay fandom!

No. But now I wish I had done that, it would have been a good idea to have something left to read!

Once I get that far I don't think I will be able to stop. Though I am reading very slowly instead of on a tear. We read Ch 1 & 2 out loud and then David and Lissa went to bed and I can't sleep. But I am not reading Ch. 3. I mean I read the title, but then I put the book down. The little drawing has me so curious!

It's too late for me to do that by now.

It's not, however, too late for me to read the book a third time after my family has finished with it.

Hi Heidi! I'm sure you have never heard of me before, but I just wanted to say I love schnoogle and fiction_alley and what you have done with them. I used to post fanfiction on schnoogle way back when, five or so years ago. The site was very kind to me in helping me with my editing and such-even though I was very young and inexperienced. I'm not sure if you run the site anymore, but I remember you were one of the top names involved with it. Anyway, I thank you for mantaining such a friendly, easy to use, and fun site!

On to your post...I am doing the exact same. Actually, the entirety of book seven I am reading extra slow. Usually, I finish the Harry Potter books in a day, a day and a half tops-simply because I can't put them down.:) But this one, I just don't want it to end at all, so I only let myself read a max of seventy pages a day.

It's worked so far, but now that everyone else seems to just be finishing, I am getting antsy. I don't know how long I'll be able to use my self-control, or how long before someone spoils it for me (I work at Hollywood Video, and since we are all geeks there, everyone is always trying to spoil the ending for me:().
