I haven't been here for almost 4 months. That doesn't mean I haven't done any reading. On the contrary. I decided to do some light reading that I had deliberately been avoiding just because. But I was curious to see what the fuss was all about.
One of the items on my to-do-list was to read all the Harry Potter books at one go. And that's what I did during the last two months of the previous decade, in between visits to the East and West Coast of the USA, a wedding, and flying across the big pond to Australia.
I must say, I loved the books, except the fourth - 'The Order of the Phoenix', despite watching the movies before hand. That didn't seem to impact on my reading at all, probably because the movies were so easily forgetable compared to the books.
It was pleasant, predictable and all rather pointless, which is the whole point of leisure reading.
I shall say no more. I'm glad I read them all at one go. Seems to make heaps more sense.
