Jacque ~ Just wanted to let you know that I am getting ready to start the Cat, Rat and Dog chapter. I am hoping to be able to finish the book tonight while Quentin is at class. So I have about 2-3 hours to do it, so it should give me plenty of time!
He has tomorrow off so I am hoping that maybe we can watch the movies tomorrow. Not sure if we will watch them all or just 1 & 3 since he alreayd watched the 2nd one with me.

So.... were you totally surprised by what happened? There was no way I saw it coming. I love the fact that Harry now has an adult that he can do to if he needs something... well, other then Dumbledore. What was your favorite part? ? The fourth book is where they start getting darker, more bad things happen... but there are still alot of funny parts to.

Jacque ~ I was soooo surprised with the ending of the book!!!! It is definitely my favorite book so far though!
Quentin and I watched movies 1 &3 tonight, after he took me out to dinner. He has really enjoyed them as well, but I swear it seems likek he has read the books!!! He always knows what is going to happen!!! I got the 4th book from the library but I haven't started it yet. I probably will tomorrow. It is long so it will take me at least a week to finish it!!!
I have a book recommendation for you that I think you will love!! It is called "Megan Meade's Guide to the McGowan Boys" by Kate Brian. It only took me 1 day to read so I am sure you can have it read in 2 hours!!!  It is about this girl who's father is in the Air Force and got sent to Korea for 2 years so she had the option of either going with her parents or going to live with her father's best friend's family, in which there are the mom, dad, and 7 boys!!! It is very good!!! I hope you will give it a chance!!!

Yes I have started the 4th book. I am not very far into it yet though, only on chapter 7, right were they went through the boot to get to the Quidditch Cup.
Have you checked out the book (Megan Meade's Guide to the McGowan Boys") I recommend to you before? It is sooo good! I think it is more your type of book then the Nicholas Sparks books!

I have not bought that book yet, but I have every intentions of doing so. I might get to a B&N over the weekend, if not I will order it online sometime next week. I also told Amanda I would get Memoirs of a Geshia.... have you read that? She loved it.....
Book four is awesome, some great things happen. You will learn about "other" wizards and all that. There is a HUGE surprise, the end of this book is where it all really begins. The 4th movie is also 10 times better then the other three!
I hope you finish it over the weekend, that way we can talk about it when I get back!!!

Well I had a busy weekend so I didnt even get to read any in the book! I am such a slacker! I really want to finish it this week but I am not sure if that is going to happen because I have so much to do around here before we leave for Ohio.

You are not a slacker, you are busy. I did not get any reading done over the weekend either. I just finished the 5th Georgia Nicholson book on Monday... now I am going to re read the Harry Potter books and then start the books you and Amanda recommended.
Are you any further then the cup... that is when it gets awesome, but it really becomes more of a 'thriller" once he gets to school and thing start happening!

Hey....sorry I wasnt ignoring this post....I jsut never saw your last reply!!! No I haven't read anymore in the book.....i was going to read it before bed last night but didn't because Quentin and I were up talking until almost 2:00.
I am going to try to have it finished at least by the time we get back from Ohio for Easter. I will read most of it in the car on the way home!!!

Good then we will be able to read the 5th book together. I am all done with the Georgia books.... and ready to move on, but I am going to wait until you start the next one before I start reading it. Do not feel bad though, I would not have had time to read it this week anyway, DayCare was soooo unbelievably busy we had a million things going on. It was great... just busy. No time to get paper work done, menus posted to the next or even time to chat with my friends. Anyway..... I hope you like the book.
