So how do I rank the books? Prizoner of Azkaban is definitely first, followed by Half Blood Prince, Goblet of Fire, Order of the Phoenix, Philosopher's Stone, Chamber of Secrets and lastly, Deathly Hallows. Why Deathly Hallows, you say? Well,
I read the book right after it was released, and I admit I did rush through it a little bit. The first time I read it, I loved it. Doesn't mean I don't love it now, but after I read it a second time and a third, I seriously over-analysed it and realised that some parts were just... uh, weird, to say the least. The most annoying thing to read is when Hermione revealed she found a couple of Horcrux books simply because she said 'Accio Horcrux Books'. I mean that, was somewhat horrible. What also got to me was that for pretty much half of the book, the trio were just hanging around, camping? Before the book was released, I had expected a dangerous heart-wrenching mission to find the rest of the Horcruxes, and although it was dangerous, it was even somewhat boring. And every single time it picked up pace, Hermione saves the day and they're back in a tent (the Bathilda Bagshot scene was quite awesome, though). Now, I still like the book as a whole, but some of those parts just make me cringe a little bit. Besides that, there were some very good parts in the book, namely The Prince's Tale chapter. The back story was just very well done and I'm sure everybody wanted to rip their heart out when Snape said his last words in the previous chapter.
I have a lot more to say about the book, and I would like to, but I'm pressed for time.
I'm sure everybody has heard about the Harry Potter theme park they're building in Universal Studios, right? They're aiming to open it between December 2009-March 2010 and I'm excited for it. I would so make a special trip out to the US to take a look. x:
And I was saving something for this post, but after that paragraph, I totally forgot what I was going to say. It was good, too.
Edit;
Oh oh oh oh and I watched Enchanted last week. I seriously enjoyed it, though the cinema was packed with kids. x: It's a very sweet fairytale and I would recommend it, but uh it can get a bit cliche. But hey, it's a fairytale so what can you do? And James Marsden is the shit. <3
