This thread is a focused discussion group. Please see the first post below for the current topic and upcoming book discussions. While natter will inevitably happen, we encourage you to treat this like a virtual book club and try to keep your posts in that spirit.
By consensus, this thread is reopened specifically to discuss Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. It will be closed again once that discussion has run its course.

Excuse me? I'm not the one casting aspersions about people either being forgetful or having it in for the thread.
I'm just being very upfront with you. I disagree with you. Big Fucking Deal. I frankly don't care if the thread stays or not.
But you made a statement I could disprove so I did. That doesn't make me overwrought. But I would like you stop sniping at me.
I think more than one person is being terribly overwrought, and the accusatory tone on all sides can stop now. Sound good?
Bureaucracy is where we get accusatory, people. Photos of cute baby butts notwithstanding.
But I would like you stop sniping and namecalling.
OK. Does this run both ways?
And if nothing else, the high post count will get people to poke their heads in here to see what's going on.
I'd love to try the Guttenberg approach.

It does take some of the hassle out of getting the book. And it pretty much guarantees we'll be discussing a classic (or at least an old book.)

And possibly FedEx a six-pack of mice and some milk to the thread.

She may be arguing with you, but I haven't seen her insult you. "Someone here is terribly overwrought" is a pretty direct aspersion at kat. Her request of you is fair.

Chocolate chip muffins, please.
Her request of you is fair
And replied to.

Yes. Especially as I haven't actually called you anything, I'm certainly willing to continue to not do so.
Actually, there's an easier solution for me.
Also, if I were eager to close the thread, I'd bring it up in Bureau as an actual proposal.
