Ahhhhh . . .

Twelve hours after I started it, I finished it. It was worth every hour, every minute, indeed every second. I finally went to bed at 3:30 am. The next morning I re-read the last two chapters to answer a couple of nagging questions. I'm anxious for everyone else to finish it so we can talk about it. I know Cherlyn's already reading it again, as am I.

My take on it? I thoroughly enjoyed it. You'll get no hints from me as to the books' innards.

It's Finally Here!

At long last. Harry Potter book 7 will be here within half an hour or so. Katie went down to town to pick me up a copy since the ones I ordered didn't arrive on time. She's going to a bbq with Emma after she gets home, Mike's at work, India's at school and Disneyland and I will be completely alone. I will be totally and utterly alone to savor and enjoy the book. This is a series I put right up there with Lord of the Rings and Chronicles of Narnia. I've got some oatmeal cooking on the stove so I will have something to "stick to my ribs." Maybe I'll even make some tapioca later on. I'm really going to enjoy the solitude.

Ted is SOO lucky to be reading it while he's in London. That would just be too cool.
