A Million In A Day

I'm laying out in Central Park yesterday and a guy comes up to my towel and says: "That's a huge book! Talk about summer reading."

First: Guys, when approaching a girl, let's try to come up with something more creative then that?
Second: If you haven't bought the book of the summer yet, what are you waiting for? (Acceptable answer: My roommate/sibling/friend bought it and I'm waiting for him/her to finish it so I don't have to drop the 23 bucks.)

According to this, more then one million copies were sold on the first day! Yes, I'm talking about Harry Potter.

Only for kids you say? Well tell that to the five people I saw at LaGuardia Airport on Sunday night who were so intently reading it they didn't notice their own luggage at baggage claim (all of which were well over 24 thank you).

Don't you dare to tell me what happens. I'm only on page 200 something. And with 759 pages, I got a ways to go. If you haven't started yet, it gets really good about oh say, page 2.
