Finished the 7th book and didn‘t want the story to end - Hopefully this isn‘t a disappointment!
pickAhh, it was wonderful being back in this world again! While the story lacked the depth of the novels, which stands to reason as it's a play, I did enjoy this follow-up with HP & crew as grownups, raising their own children. I also liked the use of the time-turner & enjoyed how the plot took the reader back in time & illustrated how changes in time affected the present-day world. Word of advice, read before you see the play! 4/5⭐️

pickI didn‘t want to like this book considering the hateful thoughts of one of the authors. But it was received in a book swap from a friend, so I read it. Did we need another HP story, probably not, but we have one. I love this universe and it‘s characters and I‘m a sucker for alternate realities. (It was also nice to get a bit of redemption for Draco Malfoy). So here we are.
This was a really cute screenplay. #ScarathonDailyPrompt #TeamSlaughter @Clwojick “Curse”
pickI finally saw Harry Potter and the Cursed Child on stage in May (originally bought tix in 2019 but Covid delayed it for years) and it was INCREDIBLE, especially the way the magical elements were conveyed. I‘m glad I saw it before I read it. It probably would‘ve been difficult to follow the text if I didn‘t already have a visual in my head. I felt like I could hear the characters — particularly adorable Scorpius — as I was reading. #teachersoflitsy
pick🌟🌟🌟🌟
Play format so I flew through this within a day. Was nice to read about familiar and beloved characters from my childhood. Only major complaint was that Ron after developing so much became one dimensional in this. He deserves better.

pickSaw Part I and II yesterday and it was AMAZING 🤩 The special effects were stunning and I don't even want to know how it was all done. If you get a chance to see this, do it! I actually can't put into words just how good it was...the moving stair cases, the magic, the Dementors...the cast were outstanding 👏👏👏

so-soQuick, easy read because it is a script. I enjoyed knowing where the main characters ended up and I love that a Potter and a Malfoy became friends, but some of the dialogue was odd and it left me wanting more information.
Totally fan girling over here. Love love this!! #potterhead #cursedchild #poc
so-sokinda felt like reading a silly little fan fiction
I am posting one book per day from my to-be-read collection. No description and providing no reason for wanting to read it. Some will be old, some will be new - don't judge me, I have a lot of books.
Day 61th
Join the fun if you want!

A candle in my window for The Shrieking Shack's return, so I can hear their reaction to the drill hands trolley witch.
(The Shrieking Shack is truly an achievement and I recommend it highly and yeah, I'm sad about their announced hiatus. Please don't be the end!)
When your brother has a soccer game but the book you wanted just came in at the library.
pickIt's good. If you are obsessed with Harry Potter like me I'd definitely read it. Not much is about Hogwarts and it is a screenplay so keep that in mind. If your don't love HP I don't think it's necessary but it's good. It'll only make sense if you have read HP though.
so-soThis was different from what I remember the 1st time I read this years ago. I didnt find it as enjoyable this time. A lot of the dialogue felt stilted & in some cases characters say things that doesn‘t sound like them. I wish Harry Potter had been left finished with Deathly Hallows. Of course I would love 2 learn more about the HP universe years later, but not in the form of a story that felt forced. I would still see the production bc it‘s HP
so-so⭐️⭐️⭐️💫 finally got around to reading and finishing this one. I did enjoy it, it was a nice quick and easy read.
Brief break from audiocrafting to hear from these guys, the actors from the Broadway show of Cursed Child.
These two arrived today✨ I GOT THEM FOR FREE🤩 Story time: I first ordered HPATCC by accident and it was with reward points from a website. A month had passed and there was no update on the book‘s shipment. And I ordered from that site during the beginning of the pandemic and all was good. After sending an email, they reply saying they‘ll refund my reward points and could keep it if it arrived! The other was with a $5 Amazon gift card!
Act One, Scene One
King‘s Cross
A busy and crowded station. Full of people trying to go somewhere. Amongst the hustle and bustle, two large cages rattle on top of two laden trolleys. They‘re being pushed by two boys, James Potter and Albus Potter, their mother, Ginny, follows after. A thirty-seven-year-old man, Harry, has his daughter, Lily, on his shoulders.
...not exactly just one line lol.

so-so⭐️⭐️⭐️/5 I reread this one and it was... disappointing this time around. I‘m sure it‘s a brilliant stage show but it read like Harry Potter fanfiction!
You guys! Is it true?! Says Nov. 2023
I forgot this book was written like a play.. not my favorite way of reading, but it will go by quickly!
pickI laughed, I screamed, i even related to some aspects. It was just absolutely perfect.
panAbsolutely no!

so-soBook #5 - I included this one in my Harry Potter reread (even though it reads like fan fiction to me) because I finally got to check seeing the play off my HP bucket list this past January. The play is so good!!
This is like eating Mc.Donalds.. parrappappapa I‘m loving‘ it! It feels like home, it‘s familiar and it‘s remembering younger days and MAGIC! 🧙♀️🧚♀️
panFinally read this play and was very underwhelmed and unimpressed. It all felt very hasty, pointless, and lacking in character development. I did like some aspects of it, primarily the time traveling, but it‘s really not good. Honestly feels like a cash grab trading on a famous name. #catsoflitsy #kittensoflitsy #petsoflitsy #klausthekitten
pick#wintergames #the filthy animals #24B42020 Spent a great “day” reading these three from my TBR list. I didn‘t really enjoy “An Anonymous Girl” - the story didn‘t capture me and the characters fell flat. I adored Alice in Wonderland, illustrated by Salvador Dali (simply stunning.) The Cursed Child was great and I‘m seeing the stage play in January so I wanted to re-read the book! What a great way to close out 2019!
Dumbledore:- We cannot protect the young from harm. Pain must and will come.
Harry:- So I'm supposed to stand and watch?
Dumbledore:- No. You're supposed to teach him how to meet life.
Today was one of those very fantastic days, where real life is paused and a new, magical world awaits. We spent the majority of our day in a theater, watching Part I and Part II of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child and it was exceptional. The stage design, production, and illusions were breathtaking. The cast disappeared, transformed, and flew, and the time-travel effects were a treat.
