Just finished reading the new Harry Potter book. It was pretty good, but Jesus Christ, at 759 pages, it desperately needed an editor. There were easily 150 pages that could have been cut out and in about 70-80 of those absolutely nothing happened.
Still, over all it was a good read, but if you haven't read any of the others before, you are screwed. There are too many references to past events in the other books for newbies to understand ...
Dear, sweet Harley Kwink...I'm madly in love with you. Marry me! We can go to Canadia. Or Boston or something. It'll be grand...You know the cookies are a given. They are ALWAYS a given. You could dump me tomorrow and you'd still get the cookies. Boston..shit, wherever dyke weddings were legalized. And where better to rub their little piggie noses in how bad they suck than right on their doorstep? What are they gonna do? Be jealous of you? Stare furiously at your tah-tahs? Not willingly give you cookies, but instead begrudgingly give you their cookies? Woman, time to wake up to the powers you wield - Uschi
