The Best Part Was At The End Where Harry…Psych!
Last night we finished listening to Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. And I’m emotionally wiped out. Is that sad? That a series of books has gotten me so involved in the lives its characters that I spent the whole time on the edge of my seat? It was such a good book! I won’t give out any spoilers, because I’m sure not all of you have finished your copies yet. And I know you all have copies by now. If you don’t…SHAME ON YOU! GO GET ONE RIGHT NOW! I checked with my local library to see how many copies they have and how long the wait for the book is if you put one on hold. They have 21 copies of the book on CD and 220 holds. They have 109 copies of the regular book and 531 holds! Even with the 2 week rental periods for new books, that’s a really long wait! By the time hold number 531 gets their copy of the book, everyone else will already have read it and spoiled it for them! But now that I’ve finished the book, I can finally get back to doing more than just sitting on the couch, spell-bound, taking only occassional breaks to do things like feed children. My only problem is, what will I read now that the series is over? Sigh.
I am dying to read it. Problem is I need to first read #4, 5 and 6. I’m with you, though. When I read, I can’t get anything done, which is why I can’t snuggle up to a book these days!

Two copies of HP in our home and I’ve not read either one. What’s wrong with me?
