[闲聊]Harry Potter新书

有谁在看或者已经看完了吗？

周六参加一个婚礼，没时间去买书。周日去我们买牛奶那家超市，到处找找不到，问人，说是已经卖完了。又跑到Walmart, (my machine was corrupted and rebuilt, it is weird suddently I cannot input Chinese)didn't find it first around the shelves of books and almost gave up. Finally found it close to the door.

It is a thick book again, 600 pages. I have finished the first 200 pages and so far so good. Much better than last one.

Did anybody see the new Harry Potter movie? Is it worth to watch?

I have not read HP7, but its plot is available in wiki. Seems to be interesting (and back to the reality) - each time the trio would end up with "narrowly" escaping from the trap.

HP 5 was my least preferred in the last six versions, but the movie is a little bit better - not as dark as the book but also missing the details (just as HP4). I wish they could bring in the director of HP3 back for the movies....

I was afraid Harry might be dead at the end. Someone suggested before that because of the connection between Harry and the Dark Lord, the only way to kill Dark Lord for good is that Harry has to be dead too.

So after I picked up the book, the first thing I did is turning to the last page, and saw Harry is still there, and felt relieved. Other than that, I don't want to know any other plot to ruin the reading.

Yesterday it was raining here. I went to buy the book and grocery shopping and quite a few my favorite drinks and snacks. Came back sitting in the cozy living room to read the book with my favorite snacks at my fingers, and really enjoyed it.

I am about half way through the book, but I have already read the last seveal chapters

. Love it :)

The movie is way too short, the shortest movie out of five, but for the longest book. The most exciting part of the movie is Luna the girl, she is soooooooo much different (in a positive way) than how I pictured her in mind.

Luna is the opposite in the movie - I almost thought there was a romance follow-up between Potter and her if I did not read the movie

you meant if you did not read the book?

I would think she's a better fit for longbottom

I find Harry's romance a little relunctant in the movie, and in the book. But I take anyone for him, even Ron.... Or, being what I am, should i say, Ron is even better
