I enjoy a research challenge. Ned makes note of the immensity of the upcoming Harry Potter book. But Amazon doesn’t list the hefty tome’s weight. The Canadian edition, printed on 100% post-consumer recycled, processed chlorine free paper, is 768 pages long and weighs 2.09 lbs. The Royal Mail in Great Britain is promising overnight delivery of the 1kg (2.2lbs) book, printed on extra-light paper, and is prepared to cope with the demand. In the U.S. the 896 page book tips the scales at 2.8 lbs.
