Well, our beloved Ms. Umbridge was the the festering reason I started to get pissed at the book, but then that one simple little twist is what sent me over the edge. And yes, that character is my fave character, Ringwench. Been so for a very very long time. but I prolly will continue on and finish the books. Hey, I don't want to turn into a "Boone-freak" here, do I?
(no offense made in the direction of Boone-fans, just making a reference to the psycho Boone fan who wrote the letter to TV GUIDE.)

OK, I'm so freaking excited!
Less than a month until Half Blood Prince!!!!
I read an article that claims to spoil who dies in the book (don't worry, I won't say who), and I was kinda pissed about it being spoiled at first (if it's even a real spoiler, which is kinda dubious) but now I can't wait, as I think that person's death will be a HUGE catalyst for MAJOR plot development!
Not to mention more darkness and angst which I can't seem to get enough of when it comes to Harry Potter.
I'm so taking the day off work on July 16th so once I get my copy I can rush home and attempt to read it all in one sitting  _________________

Wait wait wait! I have a better one!
There's ANOTHER one?
I'll probably borrow the book from a friend as soon as they're done with it, or get a copy from the library. Loved the last ones, but just not worth paying lots of money for If you can't tell by now, I'm a cheapskate. My parents taught me that at a very young age.... it's why we can afford to live on a golf course, they say >.< But I'd rather NOT live on the golf course I say!  |

There's a FREE copy of HBP online!
http://dda.mail15.com/
Someone transcribed it and I checked it out and it seems totally legit. Not sure how long it'll be up until the law gets wind of it though so check it out (might want to save it) while you can!
I bought the book, however. It cost me $40. With how freaking awesome it turned out though, I would have GLADLY paid double!
I've started on my second read already.
Seriously, it is THE BEST HARRY POTTER BOOK EVER!!!!!!!! It's better than all the previous 5 books combined!
Go! Read! Now! _________________
