15. Found a different one in a Texas paper (I think Texas)

told more details, including the ending. Leaving me with the question of "why?" or perhaps "huh?" I'm hoping reading the book will clear that up.

Suffice it to say, some predictions were right. (deep, eh?)

Found one big mistake,

What A Cliff Hanger-----WOW

Remember 10 Million copies in the first 24 hours means that Harry Potter sells more in the first hour than Da Vinci Code sold all of last year.....

a younger son as well. And a husband that travels alot. I'm not able to get out the way I used to. This is a wonderful escape for me, and I'm still able to manage my responsibilties.
