I‘ll be starting this one tonight or tomorrow. It‘s been so great to read these again, and listening to them is fantastic. I‘m sorry that it‘s coming to an end. ❤️⚡️ #7 #Seven #NovemberByTheNumbers @Tiffy_Reads @JoeStalksBeck

TheNextBook I cannot wait till January! I‘m reading the illustrated for Prisoner of Azkaban right now with the kid but I‘m ready to dive back in from the beginning! 7y
GypsyKat @TheNextBook Why, what happens in January? 7y

78 DAYS UNTIL I REREAD THE HARRY POTTER SERIES!

If you've followed me for a while then you know I reread the Harry Potter series every January! Next year will be no exception. By this time of the year I am gearing up and excited about the reread. Everyone is invited to join and read along. #HarryPotterNewYear

Next month is the like the prequel cause I'm reading HPPOA with the kid! So ready. And yes, next year will be a digital read.

MyNamesParadise I was doing the #hpchapteraday challenge that a lot of ppl were doing here on Litsy, but when I got a full time job in June I just totally abandoned it. :( so maybe by the time I start up again I‘ll be reading along with you! I‘m part way through Goblet of Fire. 7y
Notafraidofwords I never finished the series .... 7y
TheNextBook @MyNamesParadise Yes! I dedicate January to HP and I knock out all 7 and start my reading year off right! Keep it in mind. Believe me, I'll be posting about it. I love January. 7y

TheNextBook @Notafraidofwords what?! 😳😂 It's okay! They aren't going anywhere. Where did you stop? I know quite a few people who never finished. Not everyone is addicted like me! I couldn't detach from the novels if I wanted to, even though I have pretty much rejected everything else. (edited) 7y
Notafraidofwords @TheNextBook lol I know, I don‘t tell a lot of people because I‘m scared of the judgement. The second one I finished when I was teen, but don‘t remember anything. I‘ve never watched the movies either. 7y
mcipher @Notafraidofwords I've read them all (years ago) but only seen the first movie all the way through. @TheNextBook I really want to re-read and then do all the films. Maybe January is a good time for that! 7y
TheNextBook @Notafraidofwords don't let anyone judge you for that! Girl! I'm a fanatic but thats me! I've learned that everyone wont have the same relationship with the books that I do. If you haven't fallen into the fandom thats fine too! Read what you love! I love HP novels so I always read them 😂 ok I'm a little obsessed but I respect that you aren't. Just dont judge my crazy! 7y
TheNextBook @mcipher I love reading them in January. The first chapter I read of the year is "The Boy Who Lived" and it feels like I'm coming home! ? I've never been a fan of the movies. I own them all because thought I wanted them and nope. I watched the behind the scene stuff though. 7y
Notafraidofwords @TheNextBook 💚 exactly, but I will try to get to them soon. 7y
TheNextBook @Notafraidofwords you can always hop in for a book every January with me! I make these re-reads fun! 7y
MicheleinPhilly 🤔What is your typical pace for these? I've never read past book 3 even though I have the snazzy set in the trunk. 😬 7y
TheNextBook @MicheleinPhilly I usually finish the first 3 in a week. And then a little over two weeks on the rest 7y
readinginthedark Fun! I've been rereading them via audiobook lately--it's a different experience! 7y
TheNextBook @readinginthedark whenever I actually try audiobooks I am going to start with Harry Potter. I feel like that is the perfect place to start 7y
TheNextBook @GypsyKat The countdown is real! 7y
GypsyKat That‘s awesome! 😆❤️💛💙💚⚡️ 7y

So I don't know about anyone else but despite all of the mess going on in the world, I'm actually managing to get reading done! Starting the year off with #harrypotternewyear always helps. #keepingitshort is off with a bang as well. If you have a hard time getting through short story collections I would definitely recommend trying this! My first nonfiction of the year was amazing with Blood at the Root which I also recommend!

Another year. Another reread. Extremely worth it. I said when I started this reread on the 1st that it always feels like coming home. It's true. This story will always be one that I love and come back to.

Until next year's reread...

moranadatter Thanks! It was so much fun to talk HP and read along with you. Also, who figured out how to destroy the cup and sneak into the Chamber of Secrets? #RonIsMoreThanTheSidekick 8y

TheNextBook @kmdartist I mean!!! And he punched Draco in the face. Can we please save that hashtag because we may need to bring it back out! I'm glad you read along with me! Seeing your post and being able to talk about all the things happening was really nice! 8y
moranadatter @TheNextBook Definitely! I think I need to start reading it annually. I'm going to read a few HP-related books and listen to the rest of my HP podcast backlog this year. 8y
TheNextBook @kmdartist we can always join me for #harrypotternewyear next year! I've been going strong for a few years now. 8y

"Simultaneously they walked forwards and hugged, Harry gripping the still sopping back of Ron's jacket."

Ron's story arch should not be overlooked. He is one of the most fully realized characters. He is deeply emotional and is trying to find his individuality within a large family with a famous best friend. This was the ultimate turning point for him.

#ronismorethanasidekick

moranadatter I loved that exchange. And how he found his way back to them. 8y
TheNextBook @kmdartist It says so much about his friendship. It says so much about how much Dumbledore watched over all of them. 8y
wanderlustywriter Happy tears at this whole part! 😭 8y
TheNextBook @wanderlustywriter these books can just make you emotional! 8y

"How strange it was to see himself represented in stone, a happy baby without a scar on his forehead..."

When Harry reflects on the life he could have had while heading to Godric's Hollow it breaks my heart. And then this happened. I just... it's just incredibly sad that one person's fear of death could cause so many others to lose their lives...

ScorpioBookDreams This is one of those scenes that breaks me! 😢😢 8y
TheNextBook @ScorpioBookDreams everytime it hurts... 8y
KCorter I cry during this scene every single time. Also, side note, I always look forward to your posts about Harry Potter. :) 8y

TheNextBook @KCorter this has always beeb one of my favorite moments. And I love the chapter art for it! I'm glad you like them. I was worried I would over run the feeds at first. I'm almost to the end of my journey with Harry for 2017. It'll happen again next year! 😉 8y
KCorter Post away! And I'll keep spamming your notifications by liking every single post! Haha. I will probably join you for #HarryPotterNewYear next year. :) 8y
TheNextBook @KCorter yes. I'm proud of myself every time I make the entire year without reading them again! Even though I might cheat and try on audiobooks. I would love it if you join. I really needed them this year, especially the last week or so. It felt like covering myself in a comfort blanket! And spam away! 8y
MyNamesParadise Great way to phrase it!! Ugh Voldemort 🙄🙄🙄 8y
KCorter It's all I can do to not join in, especially with everyone posting about #hpchapteraday. I literally *just* read them last year and listen to the audiobooks with my boys every few months. I know I need to move on to other books... but the Harry Potter stories are just PERFECT! They are the epitome of a well-developed story. J.K. Rowling is simply astounding. 8y
TheNextBook @MyNamesParadise there was a documentary about Rowling centered around finishing and releasing this book and I highly recommend it. She mentioned all of this. 8y
TheNextBook @KCorter The books just make me happy. They are so well done, it's my favorite series and alot in my life has changed since I was 12 and these first came out and I love that have been such a constant part of me and my life. Love them. Keep this in mind for next year. I start on 01/01 every year! 8y
MyNamesParadise @TheNextBook what is the name of this documentary?!? 8y
TheNextBook @MyNamesParadise JK Rowling: A Year in the Life... https://youtu.be/p6-6zaa4NI4 I watch it when I finish the series! It's really good. (edited) 8y
hlgreenfield This is one of my favourites moments! ( My absolute favourite only comes later in the book!) 8y

If you were ever unclear of the weight and responsibility left on Harry's shoulders just read these statements:
"The last words Dumbledore spoke to the pair of us?"
"'Harry is the best hope we have. Trust him.'"

Trust him! He's 16! ? He hadn't even turned 17 yet...

#neithercanlive

moranadatter It's definitely something to let sink in. Our best hope against tyranny is one sixteen-year-old boy? He's not quite right though. Harry had help. Lots! Voldemort goes down because of the efforts of many people. 8y
TheNextBook @kmdartist People willing to fight... this book is so damn amazing. I love the way she ended it... 8y
