Why isn't anyone discussing this?
I first read the first four Harry Potter books when my wife's German grandmother who lives and works in Spain came for a visit and gave my wife and me the British editions. There really aren't that many differences, a word here, a phrase there, but just as a matter of principle, I'm waiting to get the British edition of the fifth one.
I ordered a copy from amazon.co.uk (the UK version of Amazon), and as it turns out, it's cheaper for me to have the British edition airmailed to me from England than it is to order it from amazon.com (the US version of Amazon) and have it shipped here from their nearest warehouse which is only one state away. But if I had wanted it to arrive yesterday from the British site, I would have had to pay extra. I'm not sure if that's because I waited until early last week to order it...
Anyways, it's marvelous. Rowling has, once again, surpassed herself - this one is even better than the last.
Glad to hear it! And I look forward to talking about it once I get my copy in the next week or two.
