Last night I picked up a copy of the new Harry Potter book. Costco, by the way, is my friend. The price was cheap enough to buy. At any rate, I stayed up late reading it and finished at about 2ish.

This book is considerably tighter that the last couple. This is good.

I have precisely one not-really-spoiler-ish observation I want to make to those who haven't picked up the book yet:
For once, Harry is reaching out to do things completely on his own initiative.

It's a good read.

I only just realized what JK Rowling has done.

She took someone else's story. Why else can you explain why she's retelling the story of



The Prince and the Potter.
