I heard like alot of schools these days the "goth" look has really caught on at Hogwarts....

Just to let everyone know, I have successfully finish Harry Potter and the Order of Phoenix. It turned out to be OK and didn't suck as but this time I tired reading it once before and after 200 pages had to stop reading it just couldn't get into it. I'm currently just over 200 pages into Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince and I'm finding this one to be one of the better books and I've learned a few things I didn't know.

I must say that I do like the purple highlights and the green hair.  It was bound to catch on there.

That is good news Brother Gregory.  I hope you enjoy the rest of the series.
May the stars always shine upon you and yours.

Michael of Galway - I'm digging the green hair & pierced noses.  Somehow I think Molly would come unglued.

Brother Gregory, glad you waded through Phoenix.  Some of the books catch our interest than others.  Half Blood Prince is on the top of my LUUUUURVE list.
Sveethot!

LOL! Very strange- and yet disturbing!

I think it's interesting to see how the books appeal to people differently. HBP is actually my 2nd least favorite (after SS). The trailers for the movie look almost completely good, which really worries me. I don't want my hopes up for this one, since the rest of the movies since CoS have totally let me down.

And why the heck is Bellatrix fighting in these previews?!? I hate HBC as Bellatrix, and I hate that they're trying to add the character in where she does not belong. She appears for one chapter in HBP - the unbreakable vow. That's it. There are no other appearances by her. So why did they put her in the movie?! And no one attacks the burrow in this book either - that would be DH. So I don't understand why the burrow is getting attacked.

Nevertheless, I know I will have to see it at midnight, anyway. HP is my #2 obsession - nearly tied with #1 (musical theatre). I'm new to Ren Faires, but HP and I have had a very long relationship. I've read all the books more times than I can count. I would estimate at least 20 times on average for each book. Less for DH and more for SS, which I have also read in Spanish, and the British version. I have the British version of DH, too - it came out in paperback while I was over there this summer. I couldn't resist.

My favorite part of Beedle the Bard was the Wizarding Academy of Dramatic Arts! If I can find enough people to order them, I'm trying to have jackets made - I've already designed them and everything, but they're too expensive unless around 15 people get them.

Brother Gregory

Just to let everyone know I finished Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince on Sunday. I like it more then five andto this point it's the best of them. I've started the last book Deadly Hallows and have read the first 146 pages.

Taffy Saltwater

HBP is one of the crown jewels.  I think you'll really enjoy DH, too - the only downside is that once you're done, that's all, folks.
Sveethot!

LadyShadow

Make it last.  Cuse I agree with Taffy, once your done there are no more :(

Can we petition to have more books written  ;D
May the stars always shine upon you and yours.

Finally got to see the preview on the big screen.  Looks great!  Need to finish up Order of the Phoenix and move on Half Blood Prince.  I don't remember a lot of the scenes they showed in the preview!
Got faerie dust?
