This book is so good but also making my stomach hurt.

This is the first of Carrie Fisher's books I've read and I'm only halfway through and I want to read everything else she's ever written.

As something of a drama nerd, I like reading scripts and it was cool to read an HP story in that format. And both nifty and slightly disconcerting to see Harry & crew as adults my age. What I love most is seeing how this story tackled flaws--flaws in its own new protagonists, in the old protagonists we know so well, & in revered "wise" characters.

Harry is 37. I am almost 37. I don't know how to feel.

This book is nerd perfection. The way it pulls back the curtain on the creative process and creative choices made to shape a narrative hits all the right buttons. It would be especially illuminating for anyone writing historical fiction.

Pretty sure this book is where I learned the word exasperating.

From ELIGIBLE by Curtis Sittenfeld, which seems not to be in the database yet but is maybe this untitled one.
