I just finished the latest Harry Potter book tonight....I made myself go back and reread all 5 of them first before I would even allow myself to buy the 6th. And I am really glad that I did..it made it so much more intriguing...I could remember all the things that were referenced from one book to the next...and believe it or not, none of them were boring! It's really hard for me to read books again after I have read them once because I start to remember what has happened and lose interest. But not this time...granted, the first one was a little dull but I still lost myself completely in them...
I was bawling earlier...I completely did not see Dumbledore dying coming at all...I thought Harry would try to do an inaudible curse or whatever they are called, the ones they can do without speaking and learned all year, and get Dumbledore's wand back to him. On the second chapter, where Snape makes that Unbreakable Vow, I had to put the book down, I was so upset!! I called my friend in California who had already read the book to tell her how upset I was already. I didn't read it at all yesterday because I was mad!! Silly I know, but I've always been a huge reader and when I read a really good book, I get so lost inside it....it becomes so real to me...
I gave a sigh of relief when Snape came up the stairs and then he did the unthinkable...I looked around me and could not believe that the world was going on like normal, like nothing had happened...(Told you, I get REALLY into reading!! I know, I'm a dork!! )
I hate finishing the books though....now I feel like I have lost a friend...I guess I can look forward to rereading all of them again when the final one comes out. I don't want anyone else to die though... Except the bad guys of course! Poor Harry, he keepls losing everyone he loves....it's too much I think. At some point JKR has to give us a completely happy ending....at least that is what I would like to see!
