Chatterbox: Blab About Books
HArry Potter
I've read all...
I've read all of the Harry Potter books and I love them so much! I have read hundreds of books and over the summer. I read a book every day, but the Harry Potter series by J.K.Rowling is by far my favorite. I love the way the characters develope and change throughout the novels. I also love all of the interesting names and creatures that flow from J.K.Rowling's imagination and into the book. When I read it, sometimes I cried, feeling the characters as if they were a part of me. Also when I read it, I felt as if I was in the story, where everyone was my friend and they all liked me for who I was, which doesn't always happen in real life. I love the books so much, I have memorized whole chapters and I can flip open to any page and go on a two-hour rant about it--(No, seriously, I timed myself and it was two hours and ten minutes!) I love the way everything fits together so smoothly and I love the way J.K. Rowling uses foreshadowing to a great wonder of all of her readers. I love them so much! Please read them if you haven't, and I am sure that you will fall in love with them the way I have! The movies are great represntors of the books as well; there are currently six movies out, and seven books, although they are making the seventh book into two movies becuase it is so long!

This:

I knew that, I just wondered if she capitalized it for some reason. ...I must have been half asleep or something when I read that.

Math is fun? I can come up with a whole list of things that are fun, and math wouldn't be at the bottom, it wouldn't even be on the list!!!

I think math is fun, but only when you don't have to show a whole bunch of unnecessary work *pointed glance at teachers who take points off your gradee if you don't show exactly why 2+2 is 4*. And that may be exaggerated a little, but not much.

*Ahem*
Let's stop talking about math and get back to HP. OKay, I just got this amazing book called the Lexicon for Harry Potter, It has every magical (or non-magical) term in it and I love it soo much!!! There's things in it that I didn't even know existed! It has given me such insight to the world of HP!
Happy New Year!!!!
GO 2010!!!!!

((Sorry, Caroline, real quick...
@ Ima: Ugh, I know... "Show your work"... it's silly.
@ Hannah: Aw, but it really is fun if you have the right attitude about it. Having an awesome teacher (*squee!Crice!*) really makes a difference too. And teh geometry = <3...))

This is a totally random comment.
So for Christmas I got a book called JK Rowling the true wizard behind Harry Potter. it was a bit boring but for the first time I actually thought of jkr as a person. It is an ok book, it tells about her life, it is a biography.
So when I was reading the hp books I noticed the darker mood aproching after #4 but it never got to me about how dark these books relly are untill yesterday, when my neighbor brought over hp#6 and #4 the movie. He dosen't want me to mention his name. It dawned on me that these books are grusome, especially the movie. See, I don"t mind violence in books because I can imagine it the way I want, good or bad, or I can simply ignor it, but in the movie it is so much different, terrifing actually. And my neighbor is the reason I have been neglecting this site; you see his mum and dad had to go to work after Christmas, and with my mum and dad home, he comes over to our house from breakfast untill just before supper every day and because I must be a "polite hostess" then I must do everything with him; it's quite a nuisance actually! I am sooooo thankfull he is gone now, but it was pretty lucky for him to be a Harry Potter fan. Then I wasn't deprived of everything!

I think you can get from the Warner Bros. store, i got this verry neat hermione doll for christmas from that shop, they have some seriously cool stuff there! i also got the time turner, but it is just plastic, verry bad, grains of sand don't move, the lettering somewhat rubbed of in my hand, but it is still neat

Hi Elizabeth,
We don't allow links to other websites, so I changed your like to "Warner Bros. store." The reason we do this is because we want to make sure that you're all safe, and sometimes websites that look innocent can link to other, not-so-good websites...and not every Chatterboxer is allowed to go on other websites...it's just easier to keep it this way. Welcome to the Chatterbox, by the way!

Elizabeth, I do understand that everyone has thier own opinions about the movies and the books, and I am happy that you shared your comment about the movies. OK, no offense meant at all, but you are daft in the head if you think that the movies are gruesome. I have watchd so many other horrible movies where people get limbs cut off and heads chopped off. I mean in The Prisoner of Azkaban, the movie, thay didn't even show Buckbeak's execution! Other than Ron's leg, just a little blood, there isn't that much at all (besides his cut from where Scabbers had bit him!)
On another note, I have JK Rowling, the Wizard behind Harry Potter! I loved it and have read it a thousand times over, that's where I get a lot of my feelings about her writings in the HP series from.

first of all i am 11, and my mum probibly would not let me even watch the 3d movie if dad diden't like them to, if i even read about someone who got anything chopped off that went into deatail, my mum would screem and faint! i coulden't think of another word besides gruseme, i just ment they were darker than i had pictured in the books, i knew they were dark , just not that dark
sorry for the offence!
Elizabeth
