I just finished Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince.

Damn you, J. K. Rowling.

Oooh...not good? Or really good? I can't afford it yet, as I'm playing starving artist because of the trip I'm taking, but I'm sort of excited about this book...

OMG SO GOOD. Except, it made me cry. Which I haven't done over a book since reading Of Mice and Men,, and which I hate doing in general.

I would definitely recommend it, though.

Hrm...whassa big book like that cost (and zomg is it bigger than OotP was? -_-)? Maybe I can budget it...

It's actually very reasonable. I think it's about $30. I got my copy for under twenty bucks, but I had a Books-A-Million card. Most stores have it for at least 20% off, though.

Also. It's nowhere near as long as books 4 or 5. I'd give you an exact page number, but Mom's got the book now and won't give it up.

I...*might* be able to swing that...

I saw them carting copies around on the news, and it looked thicker than 4 and 5...but then, what do I know? ^^

If you took the fifth book, and subtracted the first one, it'd be maybe about that long.

So sort of the second and the third combined?

(Crazy!math is the best kind.)

Yeah, that's about right. Crazy!math rocks!

Cool. I've got to go out to return a DVD tomorrow, anyway (Big Fish. *sob*) so maybe I'll drive the extra hour to pick it up.

...Maybe I should call to see if they have any copies...

[Eee Big Fish.]

Sounds like a plan!

the last HP book made me cry :*(

[identity profile] stoopbeck.livejournal.com 2005-07-17 04:10 am (UTC)(link)
It was rather sad.

I don't even think I want to know...seeing as I won't be able to finish it for maybe a week...these kids at camp better not spoil it for me!

[identity profile] stoopbeck.livejournal.com 2005-07-17 03:06 am (UTC)(link)
Don't worry. I won't be giving anything away. I hope those kids won't, either, because that would be awful.

I saw a ton of copies at Wal-Mart last night for about $15. I almost picked one up even though I knew I would have a copy waiting for me when I got home.

I know what I'll be doing for the rest of the day! :D

Oh. My. Freaking. God.
