I love how you get to see the growth that the characters have made and that they are becoming adults. A great set-up for the final showdown! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

My sister texted me very upset this morning because she is only discovering Harry Potter now and she read how Dumbledore dies and now this. RIP to Michael Gambon
I remember just after I finished re-reading A Monster Calls, I saw a missed-call from my sister and I called her,she told me that my grandfather died,after I hung up I saw that the call was between 12:00 and 12:14.The Monster visits at 12:07
Anybody else has weird literary coincidences?
“Let us step into the night and pursue that flighty temptress, adventure.”

Another day, another audiobook completed!
Potter while I telework. I couldn‘t take it anymore and switched to the web version of Litsy. It‘s not terrible on your phone folks! The photo editor is not user friendly if you‘re taking a pic though 😂😂🙃
I started my reread of this series almost a month ago (amongst all my other ongoing books) in preparation for this upcoming themed trivia night. That being said, I have less than a week to read the last 2 books in the series. Will I finish on time?! It is goning to be a close one lol. 😬
"And now, Harry, let us step out into the night and pursue that flighty temptress, adventure," the ancient wizard says in chapter 3 of The Half-Blood Prince.
I thought I would share how cute my Harry Potter Sticker theme came out! I love this color on my Kindle!
I listened to the audiobook of this book. I also have the physical copy of the book. I love this book, because how much the characters have grown. I rated this book a 4 out of 5 stars!!!
Anyone Participating in Deweys 24 hour readathon tomorrow?

Dumbledore travels to number 4 privet drive to collect harry from the Dursley‘s.
It‘s my house pride day!! #gryffindor woohoo 🦁
I started this book last night but I only read the first chapter. Tonight, I read chapters 2 and 3.
In this book, Harry is given more responsibility and starts to act more like an adult than a child. This one is really interesting to re-read knowing the major twists at the end. I remember reading this book at my great grandma's house, completely absorbed and ignoring everyone. It's a shame you can't erase your memory of books and read them again fresh. I remember this one being really suspenseful. Still very compelling even though I know the end
Up next on audio! 🎧

I've read these books countless times and they hit progressively deeper. At the end of book 6, my heart both longs and aches for the wizarding world. This time through the series, I'm appreciating the complexity, beauty, and value of the characters' relationships to each other.

".....how often this happens, even between the best of friends! Each of us believes that what he has to say is much more important than anything the other might have to contribute!"
Dumbledore accurately explains my depraved nature once again.
I'm pretty sure this one is my favorite of the series, not in the least because I really love Harry and Ginny together. But the comedy and drama balance out SO well, too! #childrenslit #reread
"....that they were still there on either side of him...not shrinking from him...was worth more than he could ever tell them."
❤️ ✨What matters. What keeps us. What sustains us.✨❤️
Harry and company will continue on. I hope he goes out for blood in the last book.
This was a treat to read as I haven‘t read it in probably 15 years. I am rereading the whole series which I started when I was a kid and then had to wait years for each new book to come out. This go round I‘ve been able to read without breaks and it‘s nice to go through the story continually. I enjoyed this one. I still stand my the third book being my favorite in the series but this was a nice reread treat.
At last a solid thumb‘s up. After really enjoying the start of this series, I found books 4 & 5 rather disappointing. #6 got things back on track!
Sometime you just need an audio hug from Harry. Also trying to forcibly manifest spring with my iced coffee. Come on Mother Nature it‘s almost may!

As the penultimate book of the series, this was always about setting the pieces for the grand finale. There is a lot I love nevertheless- Slughorn, the increasing sexual tension (although a Weasley twin would have been a better match for Hermione), the horcrux and Dumbledore‘s true affection for Harry. Not sure how Beatrix will cope with the final instalment - so many deaths! She cried and cried at the end of this.
I think this is my favorite of the 6 I have read thus far. Such a ride!! There were so many moms that left me speechless!
I still love these books, despite Rowling‘s ickiness and the books themselves being problematic in so many ways. I‘m so happy to share this world with my kiddo. We finished this morning and hope to watch the movie later this week, then it‘s on to the end. There will be tears.
Oh the palpable excitement I experienced as I impatiently waited for each of these books to come out! Reading them again as an adult, I don't have that same "feeling;" in fact I find more to criticize, such as, how many times and different ways can she tell us that Poor Slughorn was portly?! ?. "His belly proceeded him" "he lingered at the Great Hall during meal times" we get it the man was FAT
JFC Ron is such a slut shaming asshole midway through this book (to Hermione and his sister). That fight with Ginny! Ron is horrible but so is she. Ginny is so mean, poking right into Ron's insecurities. Can you imagine movie Ginny yelling at Ron and shoving it in his face that everyone around him has kissed someone except him? Ouch. Not that he didn't deserve it. Also, where did he learn to slut shame but from his mom, who does it to Fleur?
Finally making progress in the #ThingsInCommon challenge.
Finished 2 books and am working on the third one.
Saturday is for reading, Litsylove, and being cozy at home. 📖📚💌📝📬🛌 ☕️

I‘ll be honest, I never really enjoyed this movie as much as the others, but after reading the book… WOW! This book has by far been the most intriguing and kept me hooked the entire way through. Getting more insight into Voldemort‘s past was my favorite thing about the book. This book had me questioning more about the characters and their motives, especially Snapes. I definitely need to go watch the movie again. I loved this book!
I have all seven now, and they are all special edition!!!🧙♂️🧙♂️
My family went to Build-A-Bear today. ❤️ The kids got their animals, and I picked out this precious Hedwig. You could say I‘m Harry Potter obsessed. 🤷🏻♀️🤣 Love it. 🦉❄️🤍
