There I was Sunday night, reading my Harry Potter 5th book - The Order of the Phoenix. I'm reading reading..and I turn the page. The story shifts, and I'm confused. Wait, I read this before. I look at the page before which was 338 and the next page turns to 223!!! I thought I was going crazy. Closed my eyes..breathed deep and STILL...page 223. Is this a joke? Am I seeing things? I bellow for Lee who swears I was on fire. He can't figure it out either because for the next 20 pages, the book reverts back to a previous chapter.
When in doubt about Harry Potter - call Leeana. She had no clue what I was talking about because it didn't happen to her when she read the book. She said she must have given me her step-father's book because her book isn't like that. GREAT.
Further investigation shows me that a whole chapter's missing. WHAT TO DO WHAT TO DO. I can't skip a whole chapter..I'll be forever lost. Lightbulb - I need to get another book. So I text the next H.P. fanatic, Megan, and guess what I have in my possession - the entire H.P. series IN PDF!!!!
This might not excite you as much, but do you know what this means? This means, I don't have to lug that heavy thick book back and forth to the office and hide it under my desk to read. I can just pull it up on the computer all day! *Happy Dance*
I'm gonna take a picture of that crazy book, because its unbelievable that a H.P. book would be messed up like that! Lee says its probably valuable and worth lots. Perhaps!

Harry Potter
Thought I'd take time out from reading under my desk, to write this post! I just started the 4th book of the HP series and to say I'm hooked is an understatement. I might be about 7 years late, but I'm sooo into these books! I didn't think I would be one for books about wizards and the such, but J.K. Rowling...let's just say she deserves every penny of her millions.
I'm reading night and day and I got 3 more books, then all the movies to watch until the final movie comes out on July 15th. Last year, we took the girls to see the movie and I was SO LOST. Didn't even want to go watch the movie but I think I'm gonna be lining up at midnight to see this last one! Leeana's huge into HP..she's been telling me for years to read the books. Thank goodness she had them all, cause Kindle doesn't have HP and these books are expensive.
I just love the plot, the deceit, the friendship. Right now, Voldemort's back in the game and Harry just had his first encounter with him...I was at the edge of my desk chair biting my nails reading! Oh, and then I got a sharp piercing pain in the middle of my forehead. Couldn't find a lightning rod scar, but definitely a sign!
