I’ve got this friend who’s stuck at home with a back injury, so I brought him some books and movies. He was reading Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban so I gave him Goblet of Fire and Order of the Phoenix, and he likes guns and weapons, so I also gave him the first four Aubrey/Maturin books.
He just left me a message thanking me for the books, and he said, “That fourth Harry Potter book is really thick, so I’m gonna read Master and Commander first; it looks like a faster read.”
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! *gasp* *wheeze* Faster read! Than Harry Potter! *wipes eyes* Oh, this is just precious! *dissolves into giggles*
