I finished HP. It was very emotional. And no, I am not the slowest reader ever. I read the first 24 chapters aloud with Lara and Janine (her mom), and that was fantastic. I wish I had read every book that way. But then I had to leave to come back to the states, so now I'm here. I read a big chunk on the plane, but I didn't want to finish there, so I waited. But as I read on the plane, I kept crying, both because of what was actually happening in the book and because I kept thinking about how it was the last one. I cried so much that the old British man next to me felt the need to awkwardly pat my elbow and say, "uh...there there, don't cry...", which was very un-British of him.
Also, I decided that there is just no way I'm not moving to England as an adult. When I arrived in May, I felt like I was going home. When I got back to the states yesterday, I felt like I was visiting a foreign country. So there you go, that's definitive proof that I should move.
