I totally feel you.<br />I'm not sure why I picked it up and tried again as a kid, but I did, and now I absolutely love the whole series. I've actually read the first book the most - particularly for the whole ending sequence! It makes it hard to enjoy the movie because I'm acutely aware of all the missing details. Not so much with the other books.Mosby Hardinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11147641013530536554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7030930816434676365.post-39870685176252143972014-11-03T15:48:04.847-05:002014-11-03T15:48:04.847-05:00Thanks for stopping by!

I'm buying them all used so it's not as easy as ordering the next one from Amazon as soon as I'm ready for it.

I love that you are collecting the books! But why wait to read them?? I cant wait for book number 2! The third book always has been my favorite and I cannot wait to get to read it again. It was the one that really drew me into the series and made me fall in love with HP! I am also a big lover of endings and seeing everything brought together. If you loved the last movie you will love the last book!Mosby Hardinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11147641013530536554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7030930816434676365.post-71674969010553049892014-11-03T10:16:41.550-05:002014-11-03T10:16:41.550-05:00I read the first three books and then stopped beca...I read the first three books and then stopped because they were making movies...I was THAT 11 year old. Oops!<br /><br /><br /> I'm making it up for it now! I'm collecting all of the paperbacks and when I have them all, I'm going to begin reading them. So far I have three or four of them. <br /><br /><br />I'm glad you enjoyed book 1 and can't wait to hear your thoughts on book 2. At the time I read them, book three was my favorite. Of all the movies, I think that the second part of 7 is my favorite. Everything just came together and it felt really good to know that we'd finally "all" grown up!Mosby Hardinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11147641013530536554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7030930816434676365.post-55964257064156176032014-11-03T10:13:20.244-05:002014-11-03T10:13:20.244-05:00I was so stoked to link up...even if I did not fol...I was so stoked to link up...even if I did not follow all the rules:)Mosby Hardinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11147641013530536554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7030930816434676365.post-51882976082610790602014-11-03T10:12:58.244-05:002014-11-03T10:12:58.244-05:00You definitely should re read!
