They're here

That was fast--I ordered them day before yesterday. A boxed set of the first 6 Harry Potter books, in paperback, on sale at Amazon.com for $32.09 plus a few bucks for standard shipping. God, what awful cover art.

I won't start reading them for a while; I'm currently reading "Saving Fish from Drowning" by Amy Tan. It isn't what I'd call a "page-turner"--more of a 472-page rant on the stupidity and cluelessness of American tourists in Asia, thinly disguised as a novel, sometimes humorous--as when she's making fun of the Americans; Okay, Point Taken--sometimes grim, as when she's describing the horrors inflicted on Burmese tribes by the military government. I have no idea how to punctuate that sentence; please insert punctuation of your choice.
