I went to a midnight party at a book store, bought the commercial audio and spent the weekend reading. now i've got the web braille version and will get the hard copy braille as well. i guess it is in the characters, and the unusual things she does and the humor. no, book seven isn't written. she has the entire story planned out, but she though she's written a bit on seven, she won't even begin to do so seriously till next year. she's got a young baby and all that. Sigh.

However, a co-worker spend a lunch hour telling me about the first four books. I came home, downloaded the first one from Web Braille, started reading and then got the other four. In some ways, I probably did read better fantasy, but for some reason you just get hooked on the characters. I sure did, and I got the book from bookshare Sunday, read it, and in some ways I wondered why I was reading, but then I could not read another book until I finished it, and considering I generally have at least three books I am reading at any given time, that is unusual. Now it is back to the real world for a while, and wondering what in the world book seven could be about if there may be no more Hogswart Apparently book seven is already written or so I have heard. school.

I'm currently reading book 4, and yes, they're cute, and yes, they're English and somewhat witty, but I've read far better fantasy, and far better kids books. But hey, taste is subjective, and obviously I am in the minority on this one.
