Poll question: How many books are you reading right now?
Edited on Mon Aug-22-05 05:31 PM by mvd
I'd reading 2: Lisa Scottoline's Killer Smile and 9/11 Revealed: The Unanswered Questions. Hated ending Harry Potter and The Half Blood Prince it was so good.

11. Hi, flamingyouth!
Great! You're a fellow HP fan. Book 6 is my fave, even with the unanswered questions, which are natural with book 7 next. What's your favorite HP book? :hi:
