Dec. 8th, 2007 07:37 pmOh man, the fifth Harry Potter book just went on and on, and then the closer I got to the end, the more compelled I was to finish it this morning and forget about vaccuuming :-D My only real complaint about it was the gamut of characters.
I really want to see The Golden Compass, but it's really getting panned on Rotten Tomatoes. I'm sure for those who enjoy fantasy movies it's a treat, maybe after LOTR and HP, all other fantasy movies seem like Dragonslayer to people ;-) I'm trying to avoid as much spoilerage as I can. I'm really eager to read the books, and not just because of the controversy...I remember seeing this book all the time when I worked at the library and it's funny it never piqued my interest thing (probably because no horses on the cover :-)). The local Catholic school board has removed the series from its shelves, although it hasn't been banned per se.
