Today is the second-year anniversary of the fifth book's birth into
bookstores all over the world. (Or it will be in less than an
hour - give me some slack.) I'll always remember it because eight
hours after we picked it up at midnight, my parents were married.
Or actually, that's a lie - five days ago, I just remembered their
anniversary because the fifth book's anniversary was coming up, and I
had a Yahoo!reminder sent to me.
Anyway. I am a faithful reader of
daily_snitch, and I've read a
lot of essays and rants and discussions and things on...a lot of things
about the books. Not necessarily just the fifth book.
But on this anniversary of the fifth book, and as we pass into the
final month before the sixth book, I would like to conduct a little
survey. Especially relying on how many of us are re-reading the
fifth book, in preparation for New Canon.
What are your favorite passages,
quotes, scenes, etc. from the fifth book? What you liked the
best, thought were the most profound, thought were the best written.
