The Begining of the End
So, I have finished HP7, in about 16 hrs. Not too bad but Erica totally beat my time... Ended up getting home with the book by 12:30, totally worth not going home between work and hanging out at B&N. Have yet to get any real sleep, but I did take a shower. This is one dedicated fan that refuses to be smelly!The thing about reading it all in one go, or actually any first-time read-through for these books is that it's only the tip of the ice berg in terms of enjoying the book. Probably Monday night I'll re-start it and only read one or two chapters at each go, at least until I get to the last 6-11 chapters :) That really lets me actually GET into the book, and notice the details and foreshadowing rather than just the plot points and knowing that during some of that time I was close to falling asleep until I could make a new cup of tea.
Even then, I know full well, that there is so much in this book. So much that needs to be poured over and talked about. Erica and I went over the major plot points, but there are even a few more things that we wanted to say and get out before a second read-through. But once more of my friends and family get done, it'll just be crazy to talk about. I'm very excited that this book will feel new and exciting for months yet to come and the fact that it is the end, really and truly will sink in.
