Reading Gone Wrong

'Hey boys!  Let's read a book!'

Trent: This page is my favorite...I love to grab the caterpillars.
Miles: Quit hogging the book.  Maybe I want to grab a caterpillar.

Trent: Fine.  Take the book, but get out of my mom's lap.
Miles: Deal!  See ya!

Movie Review: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part I

I've been a fan of Harry Potter since my sophomore year of college.  I took a junior adolescent lit class as an elective.  That class was totally up my alley - reading pre-teen books for a grade?  Sign me up!  Since then I have devoured the books and movies.  There's always a bitter sweet feeling when I get to last book of a series, but this story was so fantastic I couldn't be too sad.


The movies have all been good, and Part 1 of the Deathly Hallows was no different.  I thought the acting was great, special effects were great, plot was (duh) great.  Even though I know how the story ends, I can't wait for Part 2!  Just 7 months to go. ;)
