QotD: The Deathly Hallows
Did you see the Harry Potter movie this weekend? Are you going to read the new book?
I'm so behind on the movies. I don't even remember which ones I have and haven't seen... but frankly, I like the books better anyway.
After church yesterday, my brother and sister-in-law and I were discussing the book. He and I both have it arriving on release day, via Amazon. He was considering ordering a second copy for my sister-in-law so she could read it at the same time. She commented rightly that the way he reads, she'd get it so quickly that it wouldn't really matter. I told her that really, since it's a Saturday release, I could probably bring it to her on Sunday.
I like that both my brother and I got our natural speed-reading ability from our father. Of course it helps that it's a kids book and thus a super-easy read anyway. :)

One of my favorites is especially painful - the author is fighting a life-threatening condition - there's a real possibility he won't be able to finish the series. Makes me feel guilty for hoping he will finish the last book... when I should (and do) just hope he makes it, period.
ha! we get ours on release day too...nicely delivered to the door! love it!
And you and your bro sound just like our family....all natural speed readers. My husband is not a slow reader but not speedy like me. He gets to read it first this time as I got it first last time. I hope he reads fast this weekend.....hehe.. (I am sure he will as he totally loves the Potter books)
