What do you all think about Taylor's dreams?

June 15

I vote House or hybrid too!

I think you'll definitely like The Piper's Son

Looking for Alibrandi was good as well.

There's another book being released this year - The House That Seb Built. Not sure which month though

So, this is my 4th or 5th time reading this book. The last time I read it was in 2012 when I was in my last year of high school. I wanted to re-read this to see if my thoughts have matured about this book.

I've listened to about 50% of this book so far with an audiobook and I'm probably going to read the second half tomorrow.

(view spoiler)[I realised that one of the main reasons that I kept coming back to this book was because of the pain that Taylor is in and how I could resonate with it all at the time.
I remember the first time I read this, I was confused about the two different stories. But re-reading it allowed to connect points that I missed.

This time reading it, I realised how underrated Ben is to Taylor. (hide spoiler)]

Oh yes, I loved the Lumatere Chronicles! Such a pleasant read. Actually, I've loved all her books really.

All sorted Heather!
Reading what you want rather than what you you have to, is always better!

All good Karishma! Enjoy you last few days on your holiday! Let us know about it when you return =D

I added it to spells under R (the series name is Regent's Park Pack), I couldn't find anywhere else for it to go unless we use it as a transfigurat..."

The book was in one of the spells but I'm going to move it to transfiguration. We shall transform that handsome man into a donkey.

Thanks Brooklyn! Halli updated the book to the official spreadsheet.

What do you think of the book?

Of course Suzanne! Quidditch is time consuming! =P

How are you finding it so far? Do you think one could breeze through the book in one sitting?

All good Talia! I put another book in there

Thank you for all the well wishes!! xx
I think I went well on both exams. I only wasn't sure about one question on each exam.

But, all done now!

Has anyone else started? I'm going to start tomorrow

Classic monstrosity... here we come!

Not yet!
I have a feeling when I pick it up, I won’t put it down.
I have a few books to finish first. I think I’ll start tomorrow
