Thoughts both confusing and enlightening.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

I’ve just finished it, so I can now return to the Internet. Sorry for the delay – I’m in a late timezone to start with, and had to look after mini-Elbeno this morning.

I finished reading it on Friday, and I liked it, but I was a little disappointed. Formulaic Empire-Strikes-Back plot to tee up book seven: the plot is winding up, and it shows. J.K. is also quite clearly playing to the movies, which is not necessarily a bad thing: I can…

    You read the whole thing in one night?

    I picked it up at about 11am down at the new Borders near the El Segundo Fry's. I was looking after Mini-Elbeno for the morning because Mrs Elbeno was taking a first aid class. He fell asleep in the car on the way there, so I read for about 45 mins in the bookshop, which got me through the first 80-100 pages. We came home and he was asleep again, so I got through another 50 pages while sat in the garage with him napping in the car seat. I couldn't read any more until Mrs Elbeno got home at 3, and I couldn't seriously sit down with it until later in the evening, although I read maybe another 50-100 pages sporadically. Mini-Elbeno obliged by going to bed at 8.30, and I finished off about 11.45.
