[fandom] harry potter book seven

So that's it, that's the end.

What's the next big story?

Best thing about it all? Eating frozen blackberries while reading. (And managing not to get any purple stains on the pages.) Frozen fruit rocks.

Possibly thoughts later. I'm enjoying reading all of yours.

[fandom] Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

I waited until late morning to buy it. No midnight party for me. Book five was my favorite party, I worked at a bookstore then, and got to do the face painting, and my friends J and M were running the photography, and everyone dressed up, and it was just awesome. (Which is kind of sad, because OotP is my least favorite book.)

Last time, [livejournal.com profile] thestalkycop called me when she got hers (since she's in England and all) and read to me from it while I was waiting for it to be midnight.

This time, I walked into the store and walked out two seconds later with my three reserved copies. (One for me, two for my mom, one reading copy and one saving copy. I also need to order her British editions tomorrow.) I had pretty much decided if I couldn't be in England with Sarah, I wasn't going to deal with hordes of people. Very much the right decision.

I spent a relaxing few hours reading in the sun outside on the porch swing. Good times.

There are spoilers, of course. )

So now I avoid all the wank which is sure to follow because the HP fandom is so big and split into so many factions.

I'm watching Buffy season four/Angel season one, and I'm going to bed soon. More later, likely.
