I ordered it. It came today. It has a kinda' blah cover (see below) and was slightly smaller than a library/book club edition. I'd hoped that it would come with the cover art depicting Harry and the Hogwarts Express - see below). Its arrival made me decide to re-read it and I'll probably get to the midpoint by bedtime and finish it tomorrow.
Well I finished reading Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone today, and like I figured, that reading has made me want to read another Harry Potter book, so I'm starting a re-read of Year 2, Chamber of Secrets.
