strange happenings
Jul. 29th, 2004 05:11 pmA copy of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban is winking viciously at me. It wants to be read, but I'm not allowed. There are other things that must be done first and other books that must be read or even films I would like to see first. It's hauling me in though. I don't think I can stand it much longer, seeing it lieing there on my desk and wanting to know what's going to happen in Harry's third year and who that Prisoner of Azkaban is. Actually it's quite horrible, the way these books seem to be enchanted. The last ones I've read that pulled me in like this were the three Lord of the Ring books. And Middlesex by Jeffrey Eugenides. And Hey, Nostradamus, by Douglas Coupland. And every piece of well written fanfic I stumbled across in the last year. I just have a weakness for being pulled into different worlds.
