Another short one on DH

[nico1908]

I finally remembered that I'd forgotten to mention the major aaawwww! moment I had when Harry got a magic razor for his birthday. Our ickle Harrykins... old enough to shave... *sniffs*

Then I re-read this extremely interesting piece in Red Hen's "About the Potterverse" series about what might occur in the last book and was blown away by how spot-on

you remember the part when Hermione jinxed Harry's face and he looked into the mirror at Malfoy Manor and he saw practically a pink blob with hair down to his shoulders and a shadow around his jaw? that made me like ackackackackack!

Actually, I don't. Hehe, I'll have to re-read the book at some point and pay more attention to the details. I was too busy skipping over tedious tidbits and contrived circumstances in an attempt to not let all this "more of the same" get to me too much.

You skipped? I see it often: people saying that they only leafed through parts of the book. I don't think I could do that. I'm a slow reader - it took me the whole weekend to read the book (all right, I only remembered to search for it Saturday afternoon because I thought it would be another half day until it is officially released) and I tend to skip to conversations but then I always go back and dutifully read the parts I skipped when my curiosity is sated.

re: shadow around the jawline: It wasn't really clear for me if JKR meant days old stubble or bruises at that part. But I don't remember Harry having been punched, just that Hermione hexed her with that stinging that left his face in a state.
