Laura..devouring books like crumpets’s comments from the The Perks Of Being A Book Addict group.

Im Still Not sure what Rowling said there was too much!!!!

I think her bitchy comments about periods was uncalled for anyone that goes through with the Op to become a woman is as much a woman as me... I have some friends who unfortunately can't have kids it doesn't make me more of a woman because i have kids....

But with those that identify..... A woman's shelter and toilet i agree should be for (anyone lacking man parts) only because any perv could walk in pretending to identify.....


Thats all i managed to find on the subject while googling, there was so much...... i asked both my brother and his boyfriend what was said (as they love potter too) , but they knew just about as much as me only that everyone fell out with her.....

But i still love her books, Agree with Mel and Elinor there....

📘 Favorite Fictional Relationships (Romantic or Otherwise)

Cat and Bones (its like spike and buffy)

(Eve and Rourke)


📗 A book(s) everyone (including friends) seems to love, but you ended up disliking (hating) it or authors you "just don't get" in general

its not that it was bad i just dont think it deserved all the hype.

📒 A Book(s) that was recommended to you by (a) GR friends and you loved



📕 Any books/authors that you feel you should really try, but have never got round to reading yet
