Sofii @A Book. A Thought. did this fun tag for her birthday and, well, I just couldn’t resist doing it for mine as well đ I’m now 24 and finding that simply impossible (I think reading YA has kept my mind young?? Or I’ve simply been stuck in denial that I could possibly continue aging past 17 until I had at least saved the world or something like every YA protagonist ever haha đ) Technically my birthday was earlier this week but I like to stick to my MWF posting schedule soooo….today is close enough!) Continue reading
Harry Potter
Favorite Secondary Characters
I love strong secondary characters in books. Itâs one of the things thatâll make me love a book more or could even save it if Iâm not that into it otherwise. So I thought I’d make a post and give my favorites a little shout-out! (Note: I haven’t finished reading all of these series so if one of these characters becomes ridiculous or unbearable then don’t tell me! Haha)Â Continue reading

Blurb:
“It was always difficult being Harry Potter and it isnât much easier now that he is an overworked employee of the Ministry of Magic, a husband and father of three school-age children.

The Hogwarts Library
Hogwarts Library by J.K. Rowling

Academic | Fantasy

First of all how awesome is it that Rowling decided to actually indulge us Potterheads and write and publish (albeit short) versions of a couple textbooks mentioned in the Harry Potter series? Not only is it cool to have copies of these books just like other Hogwarts students but itâs fascinating to learn so much more about the wizarding world. It just goes to show how much thought and creativity Rowling really put into her books. Magical creatures merely mentioned some time in some book in a section you canât quite remember specifically are expounded upon in her, I mean Newt Scamanderâs, book Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them. The sport of Quidditch is not merely a fun part of the books but it becomes fully actualized and explained in Rowlingâs, sorry I mean Kennilworthy Whispâs, book Quidditch Through the Ages. To top it all off JK Rowling donates the proceeds of these books to Comic Relief (âUK-based charity that strives to create a just world free from povertyâ) and Lumos (a charity founded by JK Rowling to âend the institutionalization of childrenâ).
BRN #2: The August Theory: August Doesn’t Exist.
Every once in a while I may post a random blog post about something random but probably linked to books or TV/movies or both as the description of this blog itself contains the word “babble.”
Today I’m finally venting on the utter confusion instilled in me as a child when I saw the first Harry Potter film and read the first Harry Potter book: Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone.
