Wow I'm doing a great job with posting here. I am still working on my great HP re-read and I think after that I'm going to read the leak of Midnight Sun, since it was planned to be a book and who knows when it's going to be out now. So I have downloaded the PDF and I'm going to read it. And it will be awesome since PDFs are way easier to drag around since I can just put it on my phone.
I'm currently on Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire took me the longest amount of time. I think it's because books one two and three are all about getting Harry into the Wizarding World and setting up the back store. Book's five six and seven are all about the future and the challenges Harry and crew are overcoming instead of the things they're learning about. Book four is very much the bridge between the two parts and I value it for that, however to me on my third or fourth read through it I found it a little dull and hard to get through. I was waiting for the action to begin. The Triwizard Tournament is awesome and everything, but it doesn't do a whole lot to further the plot. Although I will argue that the DA formed fourth year only know one knew it, when Hermione Ron and Harry would practice hexes in classrooms so Harry would be prepared for the third task.
Anyhow now that I've made it to OotP, I think I'll be moving through them at blazing speeds again. (Book's 1-3 took like a week and a half, GoF took up the rest of the last month, lol.) Then Midnight Sun, then finishing The Host, then finishing Calamity Physics...and then I have a ton of other things to read, lol. YAY!
5[9]/50 (I'm not counting HP unless I have to to reach my goal, lol. I guess that means counting this re-read I'm reading 57 books in a years time. Still not a crazy thing to ask of myself.)
