    I am blessed with the right genes, so that I read very quickly, and well. My brain just processes words quite adeptly. I can literally read a book a day, if I have the time. I have no problem reading for hours at a stretch, and when a book is really good, I'll read when I should be doing other things (like sleeping) and WHILE I'm doing things (like exercising). It's completely genetic, nothing I can take credit for - all my sibling are that way, and most of the next generation is as well.

    For the record, Ma was a writer and and English teacher. Dad is an engineer, but brought a thick stack of books home from the library every week to read while he was at work.

    I may not be able to walk a balance beam without falling off, or win a tanning contest - but I CAN read.

    It was several years ago - a friend who knew I love to read emailed me the text he found online of all four books. Unfortunately, they were mislabeled, when I read them I figured out that the ones labelled 3 and 4 had been switched, so it took a bit of catching up. They were just plan text files that I got emailed, I am sure they are out there on the web somewhere ... though not legally, of course. And as I had the files on my machine at the time, I could just type in "Stopped here" into the text, and delete it when I picked up again!

    If you have a library card you might want to check with your local library. Mine has this partnership with a nationwide program that has ebooks and all sorts of other nifty documents (like the SAT study guide.) The ebooks has mostly just common titles, so I'm sure Harry Potter would be on there.

    It's completely free for anyone in my county with a library card. You just have to go to the library to set up your account for the ebooks first.

    There's a small fee for those with out a library card.

    Please, if your dog is arthritic look into getting it Elk Velvet Antler. Look up my posts on it, PM me, or look it up on a search engine; but please if you love your dog and want it to live many more years consider this option. I've seen so many posts on here about dogs needlessly suffering. I can't make a new post about EVA every time so this plea is going here. EVA also helps with other ailments such as anemia.
