You,,, you, you, neva? neva? You didnt finish Harry Potter!???
But alas, before you throw a bludger in my direction to break my skull, please remember that this was long, long ago. I must have been 5, 6, or 7 reading these books, so please do not scream at me. I too am at a loss for words, reprimanding the old me and screaming, HOW COULD YOU BE SO FOOLISH?
I remember sitting in my room PRETENDING to read them, BUT WHY cute little baby lily, WHY? because I saw a movie once where a kid pretends to read a book but is actually doing something else behind the pages. When his mother walks in the room it looks like he is reading a boring book about a cat and a sock, but in reality is looking at a picture book. Little did I know that the harry potter book in my hands was far, FAR more interesting then coloring in a picture of a cow.
So it is true my friends, the old me never got through the fourth book, and honestly forgot the other three. But do not be too upset, because now, NOW I have awoken! I have awoken, and changed and will merrily read the books. all of them, then see the last movie.

But theres a problem. As there always is, because I am in France. And I could only find the first two books in my house before leaving my home land. And Ive just finished reading them... and am jumping off the florr in excitement to read the next five... but I dont have them.
LILY WANTS HARRY POTTER BOOK THREE!!! wahhhh, and then four; and then five, ane then six, and then seven. So please. Just take a moment and feel sorry for Lily. Who will have to wait until september, unless she finds her hands magically on the next few books, or atleast just the third one. Just, take a moment, and feel bad. Cry a little. Yes, shed a tear.
That is all.
You may go now...

Hey! I didn't finish it either. Or maybe I did... But I read them all out of order. ;)
ReplyDeleteI've seen the last movie before finishing the series, so I feel ya. But it's AMAZING!!! I just started the fourth one :)
ReplyDeleteHave fun in France :)
The same thing happened to me. I got to the Prisoner of Azkaban (sp?)and it scared me because I was so young and I was literally scared of everything. I may go back and read them if time allows :)

blasphemy!!!!
ReplyDeleteBut it sucks, now that the ending is obviously in your face everytime you open the tv or pick up a magazine. :/
ReplyDeletei'm trying to read them again, as well. on the first... i'm with ya!! really cool post, Lilly. thumbs up :)
ReplyDeleteFrance? SO JEALOUS! Love france... Never been there... but I wanna go. Good luck with the series. :)
ReplyDeletetis better to have stopped and restarted than never to have started at all
ReplyDeleteI have the whole series. If you would like me to, I could write each book a sentence per comment box.
ReplyDeleteOkay, here's the first sentence of book three:
ReplyDeleteHarry Potter was a highly unusual boy in many ways.
Nice blog
ReplyDeleteWho is this Harry Potter? What types of pots does he make? Why is he so harry? Maybe he should shave, or get a haircut... just a random thought.
ReplyDeleteI've read the last book..! its amazing..!
ReplyDeleteOh wow... you've only got through Book 2 and you think you're excited NOW? I know you're "back from France" now, so tell me, DID you get your hot little hands on a copy of Prisoner of Azkaban and beyond? As I die-hard Potterhead, I must know. Because, in my opinion, Book 3 is the big turning point, it's the one that lights a fire under you and sucks you in, no turning back. So, as I said, dying to know... have you progressed passed 2 yet? (new here, btw - love the joint. keep up the good work) :)
ReplyDeleteThank you everyone for the comments! You are all AWESOME! AND YES, I DID. AND I ABSOLUTELY AGREE. I'm on the fourth now! Almost done. OHHHHHH IM A DIE HARD FAN TOO just a tad bit late. BUT IT DOESN'T MATTA!!!!
ReplyDeleteIt's never too late! That's the fantastically wonderful thing about books. Welcome, Lily. You're in for a hell of a ride! :D (when you get to 5, let me/us know. some people love it, some people not so much - personally 5 is my favorite, but it's always so great to hear from someone who's reading them with fresh eyes!)
