Thanks for the motivation! <BR/><BR/>I am sorry that you are having PPD.<BR/>You will have to start telling the girls a few bedtime stories and editing down the scary parts until they build up a little resistance to excitement and come to love the story like you do. I always like telling the kids stories, and I think that would help me with PPD.Sailorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12921177435940480006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1524749296488158627.post-77835170021046964152007-08-04T17:01:00.000-06:002007-08-04T17:01:00.000-06:00Okay, Princess and Andrew, you have reamed me out ...Okay, Princess and Andrew, you have reamed me out . . .

It disgusts her! I don't know that I would use those exact words, but part of it is the journey you take with Harry and if you know the ending, I think it lessens the impact of the journey. You're not able to really feel what he's feeling. I was overwhelmed with emotion as I galloped through this book and I can't wait to read it again and truly savor it. That being said, I do think the epilogue was a bit too pat and I wish she would have left a bit more to the imagination. However, she will be writing an encyclopedia where she'll go into more detail about the characters and their backgrounds and where they ended up...Hero Neville included!<BR/><BR/>Thanks Jenny! It was so fun to read your thoughts. I too had Post-Potter depression.princess jenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00996199384833340826noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1524749296488158627.post-60126744534537794112007-08-03T13:03:00.000-06:002007-08-03T13:03:00.000-06:00heee heeeenow I know what happened. Now I don't ha...heee heeee<BR/>now I know what happened. Now I don't have to be so scared for what is around the corner, I can read it and not be sitting on the edge of my seat with stress. I don't have to put the book down and walk away, because I cannot stand the knot in my stomach. <BR/>Besides I had already heard the gist of it in another blog, so Red doesn't have to worry about ruining it for me. She didn't. She made it better.<BR/>Besides, a lot of the time I read the end, or skip ahead so I don't have to stress. I still read it eventually. <BR/>And I don't have to suffer from Post-Potter Depression. All the fun still lies ahead for me. I haven't read most of the books. <BR/>I must be ADD, I cannot keep one book in hand for very long. I just get bored.
