Slytherin home after a long wait . . .

From international correspondent Sari Maw:

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows smashed U.S. sales records by selling 8.3 million copies in the first 24 hours . . . that’s over 345,000 books sold an hour, nearly 5,800 books a minute and almost 100 books a second. Some early buyers stayed up all night to read the 750+ page book in its entirety. Many expressed disappointment in the conclusion, learning that the entire series was a dream of a Chicago psychologist.
