Today I feel like the hugest geek in the world. Less than twenty-four hours following the release of the 6th Harry Potter installment, I turned the last page of the book. Let me make one thing very clear; I'm not a fanatic (ha, I save all my fanatic energy for Star Wars!) I just enjoy the series. I know that lots of adults read them. Nonetheless, I still feel a little dorky, so bear with me as I rationalize.
For one thing, I'm a very fast reader and the book isn't exactly heavy reading.
For another, it's entertaining. Ron and Hermione make me laugh. Rowling nails teenage melodrama.
Well, that's all the rationalization I've got in me. Nope, not much there. I like pre-teen literature and I'll just have to accept that. Watch out for my future blog entries on Judy Blume and Carolyn B Cooney.
ps. The end of the book had me in tears. Yes! Tears.
