Let Us Discuss! (sort of)

If I were granted 3 wishes at this moment, I'm ashamed to say one of them would undoubtedly be about the final installment of Harry Potter. I wouldn't go all Annie Wilkes on Rowling or anything, but a FedEx package from the future would be nice.

It wasn't my favorite (that would be book #3 - I know, I know, there's obviously something wrong with me). I enjoyed the first two chapters, even if they seemed a little out of place. And I didn't mind the info dump. I LIVE for backstory, when done well, and at least she had an interesting way of doing it. And one of the big things revealed I guessed early, and then there were some surprises, which is always good. The introduction of some romantic elements - long overdue, but I'm hopeless about that kind of thing. There is so much to speculate about, but not everyone is finished reading, and I'd hate to spoil something on here.

Because it had been over two years since I read Book 5, I found the SparkNotes online. Sure, I felt a little silly, but it can't hurt to have a refresher. There is also a guffaw-worthy recap/parody sort of thing about Prisoner of Azkaban, the movie.

I can't explain it, but Snape is hot, as is Lucius, and I wouldn't mind a crack at Sirius (not Gary Oldman, but the character). Apparently I have a thing for fictional assholes and escaped convicts. It's my fantasy world, I can invite whomever I want for a visit.
