Well I finally finished HArry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince or as I like to call it H.P. Head over heels, or H.P. 90210, or Potter's Creek.
The book did have a few twists in the plot but nothing really major. As I expected, to continue with the hollywood style sensationalism a more important character was killed. Most of the book though seemed to be concerned with love and not good love or sweet innocent child like love but crappy who's screwing who and who is jealous about it love. Well ok there was no screwing it is a kids book (or proclaimed to be) but there was a lot of making out or snogging as they like to call it. Of cource I could be wrong and snogging might be boob touching or something. If anyone out there has done a lot of snogging, let me know.
The other annoying thing about the book is Harry seems to be taking cues from Anakin skywalker in his book, "How to be a good friend and talk to adults". Its almost silly some times.
I do even with criticisms suggest this book to anyone who has been reading the series. Its much beter than order of the phoenix and in some ways is back to the style of gobblet of fire. A warning this is really not a kids book. They start to delve into some dark magic in this one and do some really bad spells. Also there are zombies.
In other news there was another attack in London. Apparently a nail bomb went off in one of the subway terminals. Man I hate terrorists. Its such bullshit. I for one will not let terror effect my life again. I have made what little peace I need and resigned myself to fate. I will not hide in my house or change my vacation plans (easy to do when you can't afford a vacation). It almost makes me want to join some sort of armed force and go after them. Unfortunatly with our present moron in cheif I'd probably just get sent as part of the subjugation force in Iraq, which is bullshit as well. Maybe its time we fight fire with fire and nuke someone. We know which countries do most of the funding to terrorists and where their base camps usually are. Lets see how well they like training in a radioactive wasteland.
