Wow. I mean, every time I think my obsession for Harry Potter begins to calm something douses gasoline on the flame and it rears it's magical head once more.
Oh Harry Potter how I love thee, let me count the ways:
1. Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's (Philosophers) Stone
2. Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
3. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban
4. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
5. Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
6. Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince
AND SOON - EXACTLY ONE WEEK AND ONE DAY FROM TODAY-
7. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows
siiiiigh, what WILL I do with myself after the end of the series? I do love the movies and will enjoy that they still have 2 more to go (I'm going to see the Order of the Phoenix tonight!!! YAY!!!) but am sure I will feel so bittersweet whilst reading the last of Harry's adventures.
I thought I had calmed down a little bit, but then I just read synopses of all the books once more just to jog my memory a little bit before reading the last book, and I realized that this WHOLE time while waiting for the final book I could have been reading the other 6 books again! I had been on the bandwagon (of my own creation) that I would only read them once - after all, there are sooooo many books out there and soooooooo many that are on my list to read, why should I re-read Harry Potter of all things?!?! OH YOU FOOL!! What were you thinking?!
And now with just one week it is impossible (for me anyway, I'm a terribly slow reader, well, not THAT slow, but a week for all 6 books?!?!) to read them ALL before the 7th.
It's not like I can wait to read the 7th one, because you KNOW some yo-yo out there will most certainly spoil it for me and I will be forced to murder them ("AVADA KEDAVRA!" - shut up.), though I'm fairly certain my motive would stand up in a court of law. I'm sure JK Rowling would approve.
Potter-mania, why must you hold my heart in your deathly tight grasp??
