Oh I think I’ll tag in for this one! At least until I can’t stay awake lol.
This is my favorite book. Is that weird? I loved the games and the clues and stuff.

I probably won't make it after all. I've been under the weather recently and am completely wiped out tonight.

This is another book with a somewhat boring first chapter. Rowling has issues with that. I know it's so she can set stuff up, and it works out in the movie, but it's always a struggle for me to get through.

I have to say, I don't really care for the whole Nagini used to be a witch thing that got added in Crimes of Grindlewald. I like her better as just a big snake.

And I really miss the Weasley's picking up Harry. I would have loved to see them blow up their living room.

Harry really just gets thrown into it with Wizarding transportation every book. Floo Powder, the Knight Bus, Portkeys.

Also, one of the many things I hated about Cursed Child is that Cedric would have become a deatheater. He's much too noble and pure of heart. Cursed Child will never be my canon. I definitely had a thing for Cedric as a young adult. Or as my college roommate called him, Sedgewick Diggerman. This movie came out my freshman year, and my friend and I went to the cities especially to watch it. |

Also, they should have had the Weasleys in the box too. How else does Barty get Harry's wand? Makes no sense.

And I really enjoy the part in the book where the Bulgarian minister pretends not to speak or understand English for the whole match.

I love how this is really the first time that there is the awareness of other countries having magic and wizardry too. I remember reading the book for the first time and being like “oh, yeah I guess the rest of the world would have magic too lol “

The Death Eaters here are terrifying. And so true of how terrorists work, taking something fun and infusing it with fear and horror. Yes. It's definitely got a sense of realism. |
