(I thought I'd save them up until the boys are older and read with them - or get them to read to me while I snooze) And BlogHer - I don't think I'll be attending from Australia either...with four kids in tow? ha! um…I’ve never read a Harry Potter book either - not much interest here I must admit.

I have a FAVS thing on my computer that I just roll through and click on the blogs to read. My sister called the other day and asked me what I was doing. I told her I was reading the Harry Potter book. She SCREAMED! Then explained that every one of her friends are reading that book. One of her friends has her daughter answer the phone with "If you called for my mom she is behind closed doors reading 'The Book'. She will call everyone back when she is finished." Yikes! I finished reading the book. I can see how the kids are so glued to the books. It makes me think of Lord of the Rings, Cronicles of Narnia aka The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.

No real interest either. But then I wasn't into Sex in the City or Desperate Housewives. I seem to miss these pop culture moments. I too haven’t read any Harry books. No real interest either.

And I promise to bore you with BlogHer posts for only a couple of days. I didn't start reading Harry Potter until book 4 came out & then I only read it to see what the big deal was. Yeah, I'm totally hooked now. Dude, BlogHer was fun! And I promise to bore you with BlogHer posts for only a couple of days.

But I don't expect everyone to love it, nor am I going to rant about it on my blog. Too many other things! And I'm with you on BlogHer. Can't afford it, can't make the time... so, yeah. :-) I’m with Catherine on the Harry Potter… loved it! But I don’t expect everyone to love it, nor am I going to rant about it on my blog.

I originally started reading them just so that I could feel that I disliked the whole things credibly, rather than stereotypically but...that didn't exactly work out. I also went to blogher, but only because I got in for free. :) Lets still be friends. :) I not going to stone you but…I will shaemlessly annoy you by saying, my standards for books are very high, I hate things that are trendy, and I have been profoundly impacted by Harry.
