Anticipating Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
I thought I had already done this post because I knew exactly what I was going to say. My background experience with Harry Potter is very different. I feel like most people that read more than one Harry Potter go on to read all of them excitedly. Although, I did really enjoy the books I only read until the fifth one. I probably started the series around third grade but I don't remember when I finished all I know is that my life became to busy and there were awful required readings that took up my time. However, what I do remember from this book was that the fourth one was my absolute favorite...until I read the fifth one. But they are definately my top two. I agreed with what we said in class that the movie for this book was awful unfortunately. I am excited to talk about this but worried that I might be bombarded with a little over excitement from die hard Harry Potter fans (like the members of our Quiditch team, although a very cool idea a little much for me personally).

I completely agree that the 4th book is the best while the 5th is the most annoying one (and also the most depressing). But don't let that stop you from finishing the series. I promise it gets better! The 6th answers a lot of questions while the 7th book answers ALL of your questions and it truly is a fast read (like the 4th).
ReplyDeleteAlso, since you started reading the series at a young age, I think you will appreciate/enjoy it more now that you're in college. I only recently (this past summer) finished the 5th. 6th and 7th books consecutively because I wanted to know what happened before the 7th movie comes out (this November). Happy reading!
PS - I like your background : )
