In case anyone in the bingo online world didn’t know, the latest and last instalment of the Harry Potter series of books went on sale over the weekend and all indications are it is about to become the fastest selling book in history. The previous fastest selling book in history was the previous Harry Potter book to this latest one. However,"Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" may not be the retail jackpot iit seems with some outlets like UK supermarket chain Asda having to sell the hardback version at a heavy loss. This has not stopped the sale of up to 97% of stock being sold with more copies being ordered. quot;The nation really has gone Potter potty," said spokesman Ed Watson, according to a report in Reuters. He added that "Deathly Hallows" has sold twice as quickly as "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince," published in 2005. Speculation has been rampant, including some guessing in online bingo hall chat rooms, about the demise of some of the characters in the Potter saga. As for me, I’ll wait for the movie to come out to find out who dies. (two films are scheduled for release before 2010). And, no, the boy wizard doesn’t indulge in online bingo games hocus pocus – JK really missed the boat on that one.
