You-Know-Who

I really have to stop reading Harry Potter before bed.

Last night I barely slept because I fighting Voldemort and looking for Horcruxes in my sleep.

It spills over into my daytime, too. Because I am so engrossed in the book, and I'm usually exhausted to boot, I sometimes really believe that I am able to perform magic. For a brief moment yesterday, I actually thought I could conjure up a sandwich without getting off the couch by simply uttering, "Accio sandwich!" (It's a Summoning Charm, for all you Muggles out there.) If only it were that easy.

  1. I love Harry Potter...I'm afraid to read the books first because it ruins the movies...they end up leaving so much out of the movie...is the last one sad?

  2. Wow, I think of it the other way around. I feel like the movie ruins the book if I see it first. Yes, the books always have SO much more detail than the movie, which is why I like to read them first. The last one isn't sad yet, but it is scary. :)

  3. I think that it's because I started with the movies not the books...we always fight over who gets to read it first...I think that I will have to break down and read the book! Do you read Janet Evanovich or Diane Mott Davidson? Those are two of my faves!

  4. No, I haven't read those authors. Thanks for the recommendation!

  5. Janet Evanovich writes about a fictional character Stephanie Plum...You need to start at the first book(she has 13 out in the series) and Diane Mott Davidson writes about a caterer named Goldie and she includes recipes for all the things that she makes in the book
