Disc 4/17 (view spoiler)[Slughorn is an arrogant jerk! How a teacher can behave that way!! TSK TSK TSK (hide spoiler)]

[Jamie]

Disc 8/17 (view spoiler)[I really do like Luna! She is actually a favorite character. I sometimes wish she was a little less out-there in her comments. But some have been accurate so..... (hide spoiler)]

[Jamie]

Disc 13/17 (view spoiler)[The idea of soul splitting really does sound bad. Still..Slughorn took on way too much blame for that memory. (hide spoiler)]

[Jamie]

Done (view spoiler)[I hate the ending! But I do like how FLeur and Mrs Weasley finally make peace. And my esteem of FLeur goes way up.. (hide spoiler)]

[Jamie]

Deathly Hallows Disc 4/17 (view spoiler)[So much for a honeymoon for Fleur and Bill. At least the ceremony was good. (hide spoiler)]

[Jamie]

7/17 (view spoiler)[That bites that Ron left. He really wasn't thinking straight. But it is typical Ron. Not sure we can go a year without on of his epic fits. (hide spoiler)]

[Jamie]

12/17 (view spoiler)[So so sad about Dobby!! Glad he got to see Remus again and that things were made right between them! (hide spoiler)]

[Leah]

Chapters 1-10:
I forgot that the first chapter was (view spoiler)[seen by Harry. Although, he thought it was just a dream/nightmare. (hide spoiler)] Also, I feel bad for Winky. She had a rough deal. (view spoiler)[ Being forced to stay in the highest box at the World Cup even though she's afraid of heights. Then being blamed for the Dark Mark and being sacked by Mr. crouch because of it. (hide spoiler)] The Quidditch match was exciting. U remembered that (view spoiler)[Ireland (hide spoiler)] won, but I forgot (view spoiler)[how nasty the mascots and players got. (hide spoiler)] The beginning campsite chapter was funny. Some of the wizards made me laugh. The second chapter was sad, scary.

[☆☆Hannah☆☆]

I'm up to Chapter 10.


(view spoiler)[Yet again while rereading this book there are things that I have forgotten. The only good thing about reading a book more than once. I felt bad for Winky. She didn't deserve what happened to her. Percy is so annoying. Sadly he doesn't get better until the 7th book. I had forgotten how nasty all the Quidditch players were to each other during that game. Thankfully it ended when it did. (hide spoiler)]

[Leah]

Chapters 11-19:
Not as much happened in this section. SPEW was interesting. I also like the Weighing of the Wands. I like hearing about each champion's wand. I also like the part with Sirius. (view spoiler)[It was unfortunate that he had to break into a house to talk to Harry through the fire. I do like how they can use floo network to send just part of their body to another fireplace. (hide spoiler)] He had some interesting things to tell Harry. I liked the (view spoiler)[dragons (hide spoiler)], too. It was interesting to see (view spoiler)[to see the different species (hide spoiler)].

[☆☆Hannah☆☆]

I'm up to Chapter 19.


(view spoiler)[Ron always makes me mad in this book. He just should have known better. I get that he is human and has feelings but sometimes it's just too much. Hermione and her S.P.E.W. is annoying. I like that she cares but with these creatures it's just not going to happen. They are happy and that's all that matters. (hide spoiler)]

[Leah]

Chapters 20-28:
This had more action. (view spoiler)[The tasks were interesting. Although, it was just the first two. I preferred the second task. I liked the merpeople. Also, the prefects bathroom sounded cool. The kind of bathroom I would like. The Yule Ball was humorous, except for the part with Hagrid being half-giant. That was sad but not surprising. Also, I felt bad for Mr. Crouch. That was also sad. It was nice to see Dobby again. He's weird and wonderful. (hide spoiler)]

[☆☆Hannah☆☆]

I'm up to Chapter 28.

(view spoiler)[The second task has always been my favorite. So I always enjoy reading that part. Rita is a horrible person. Thankfully Hermione gets her in the end. (hide spoiler)]

[Leah]

Chapters 29-37:
(view spoiler)[The third task was interesting. I liked the sphinx and the 4 Points spell. I had forgotten that there was a spider at the end of the maze. It was nice that Harry and Cedric worked together to beat the spider. I felt bad that Cedric died; I liked him. I didn't like the chapter with the Death Eaters. I thought it was a bit boring, but I did like the part with the twin wands. The effect was interesting. Also, I like that Harry gave the twins the prize money to start a joke shop. (hide spoiler)]

[☆☆Hannah☆☆]

I'm finished.


(view spoiler)[It's always sad reading this ending. Cedric didn't deserve to die. He was so nice. It sucks that many people didn't believe what happened but we know it starts off the whole war. (hide spoiler)]

[Ashy Khaira]

Chapter 1-6 (view spoiler)[ Lol i can't stop laughing at how the Durselys reacted to the Flooing of the Weasleys.Or even how Dudley was with the ton tongue toffee.I love the wizard wheezes not fair of molly to destroy them and expect the twins to be who they are not (hide spoiler)]

[Ashy Khaira]

Chapter 7-16 (view spoiler)[ omg i hate crouch,he allowed his son out,he knows what his son is like and he still blames winky?he is an asshole.I loved rons disgust with his outfit hahaha.Also i love their reactions towards the beauxbatons and durmstrang arrived.especially when they realize krum was there.could not stop laughing over the rules of the triwizard tournament,or when mcgonagall wrapped her hands around hermione's neck to stop herself from skidding over the water in the hall (hide spoiler)]

[Ashy Khaira]

Chapter 17-27 (view spoiler)[ i could not stop laughing at the part where dumbledore asked harry calmly if he had put his name in the goblet when i think of the movie.The first and second tasks are extremely interesting.wonder what happened to crouch? (hide spoiler)]

[Ashy Khaira]

Finished (view spoiler)[ omg i cant imagine what harry would have to go through in the maze having to face ssphinxes and so on.how did krum and fleur get harmed or distressed though?oh no cedric died and voldemort is back to full strength.I hate wormtail for betraying harry all the more to such an extent and bringing voldemort back to life.wtf,moody was being impersonated by barty crouch junior?how did he even over power moody?and why isnt fudge believing harry???DAMN IT IDIOT FUDGE (hide spoiler)]

[Shar]

Chapter 1-5: This is a reread for me (view spoiler)[I completely forgot about the scene where the Weasley's were travelling by Floo powder to the Potter's and then get stuck. and Mr Weasley mispronouncing electricity. This series is a work of art. I laughed so much! (hide spoiler)]

[Anna 'Bookbuyer']

(view spoiler)[I loved that scene! And the Dursley's freaking out! So funny! (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

Thanks Sarah!

[☆☆Hannah☆☆]

I'm up to Chapter 5.


(view spoiler)[No matter how many times I read this I still hate the Dursley's. I can't imagine having to put up with people like that. I just like Harry think that the Weasley's house is cool. Of course meeting Mr. Malfoy shows that Draco gets his crappy personality from his father. (hide spoiler)]

[Leah]

It does. (view spoiler)[It takes until the end if the series for them to change (hide spoiler)].

[Leah]

Chapters 1-5:
(view spoiler)[I don't like all of the Weasleys, but I do like their house. The flying car is cool. I feel bad that Harry and Ron thought that they had to fly it to school. It was funny that Mcgonagall gave them the obvious and boring answer. (hide spoiler)]

[Maddie]

I'll be starting late tonight.

[☆☆Hannah☆☆]

Leah wrote: "Chapters 1-5:
[spoilers removed]"


I can't stand Percy.

[☆☆Hannah☆☆]

I'm up to Chapter 10.


(view spoiler)[I always forget about the Death Party. That would suck to go but it was nice that Harry went. Just like Ron I hate spiders too. (hide spoiler)]

[Leah]

I don't like Percy either. What he did to Ron was ridiculous.

[Leah]

Chapters 6-10:
(view spoiler)[It's amazing that Hermione makes the Polyjuice Potion. It takes a lot of skill to make. Mrs. Norris and Colin have been Petrified, but they will be revived eventually. Also, I feel bad for Filch. No one should be a Squib. Maybe the Kwikspell course or something like it will help. (hide spoiler)]

[☆☆Hannah☆☆]

I'm up to Chapter 14.


(view spoiler)[It sucks that so much happens to Hermione. First she gets stuck as a cat for weeks and then she gets petrified. Now I got to prepare myself for the spider chapter. (hide spoiler)]

[Leah]

Not a good time for her.

[Leah]

Chapters 11-14:
(view spoiler)[The Christmas feast sounded lovely. Too bad most of the chapter involves Polyjuice Potion. Also, Harry should have given more thought to his classes next year. (hide spoiler)]

[☆☆Hannah☆☆]

I'm finished.


(view spoiler)[I always liked how Dobby was freed. Not only because his masters were the Malfoy's but because he was such a sweet house elf. Harry really does owe being alive to luck and having someone there to help him. (hide spoiler)]

[Leah]

Chapters 15-18:
(view spoiler)[I feel bad for Myrtle. She should have moved on. Choosing to be petty and haunting someone because they were mean to you is a waste of time. Time better spent. I also feel bad for Lockhart. It was a jerk and arrogant, but he didn't deserve to have his mind wrecked. No one does. I like Fawkes. He's a beautiful, helpful bird. Saved Harry's life. (hide spoiler)]

[Leah]

Dobby was (view spoiler)[lucky to get away from the Malfoys. They were horrible to him (hide spoiler)].
