Not dead yet. As much as they may try, I'm still here.
And now I'm of the opinion that HBP is a better book than OotP:
- less annoying overall (ie: no Umbridge)
- less HarryANGST! (though evidence of it still remains, selfish little prat)
- more hilarity (canaries)
- Snape as a genius (one must admit that even his DADA classes were good, as long as you're not associated with a Potter, and even Harry had to admit that part of his knowledge of the bezoar came from Snape's Potions class)
- and Dumbledore being himself. I like him better this time around, not that I know why. He's manipulative, but very polite about it.
I would have enjoyed Reading Week if not for all the stuff that needed to be done for school. It would have been nice to go to the bookstore again, or rather, to go much of anywhere, but both time, school, and my ear infection are against me, leaving me huddled in bed for a week, reading and typing and going insane. Meh.
grad school,
