Sooooo.....I have a confession to make today. I am late to the party, by about 10 years, but I say better late than never. Am I right?
I downloaded the first Harry Potter book to my iPad this weekend via the Kindle app. Everyone and their mom has read this book and/or seen the movies. I have done no such thing. Yeah you read correctly, I have not read any of the books or have seen any of the movies. I have been thinking about starting the series for years, just never really got around to it. I was all like "I am too cool for Harry Potter" "I'm no "pothead" "I'm not going to like these books, little kids read these books" Yeah....that was my thoughts about it.
I can admit when I am wrong, and gosh darn I was. I have read over half of the first book in like a half of a day. I couldn't put the stupid thing down. The imagination in this book is just crazy off the charts and I love it! I want my own owl and to attend Hogwarts damnit! Why have I not read these before now?
I look at it this way....I have 7 more books and 8 movies to fill up my summer time with. Awesome, yes me thinks so! Chris even said that after I finish each book, he wants to watch the movie with me. (He hasn't seen them either.)
And to think I have been living my life as a Muggle.
That is all...
I've only seen the first HP movie and it was awesome. I'm not one to judge a book by it's cover, but I do judge by the size sometimes, and man those HP books overwhelm me. Let me know how it works out, I may try to get my nose into one.
ReplyDeleteI've never read any or seen the books!
ReplyDeleteI only read them all and watched all the movies just last year, so I was super far behind too, but now I'm obsessed like normal people were about 10 years ago haha. Get ready!
