To read:
1. Harry Potter
2. The Chronicles of Narnia
3. The Lord of the RingsI'm living in a rather fandom-y place right now, so here's a bit of flailing.
One of my New Year's resolutions was to reread all the Harry Potter books. So I bought the few I was missing (which, ugh, now I have some paperback and some hardcover, this is upsetting) and began. As a kind of personal project of mine, every time I finish one of the books, I'm going to recap my favorite parts. Keep in mind, I pretty much love everything, so these are my favorites of all.
Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone
( Danny's observations on the book that started the great adventure, )Other HP fandom-y stuff:I ran across this quote on tumblr today. I really love it (probably because I'm on a Draco/Tom kick, but whatevs).
If the question is whether Draco would have committed the murder, my answer is no. I don’t think he would. He had lowered his wand. He was prepared to come over to Dumbledore’s side. I hope you see that there’s some of that same feeling in Book Seven, when he does try to protect Harry. But he’s in too deep. Like a lot of characters, he’s not a hero. There’s a real moral cowardice to Draco. But is he wholly bad? Absolutely not. - J.K. Rowling
