Welcome to Litsy!

It‘s been a long and busy weekend which has left me feeling rather stressed so I have decided to call it a day and settle down with some calming crochet and a Harry Potter audiobook. I also thought a generous helping of ice cream and chocolate hazelnut butter was called for!

I‘m sorry, I had to share this here! 😂❤️⚡️ #Potterhead

My niece and I are neck in neck in the buddy read along/book race.

I‘ve always been kind of sad that things didn‘t work out for Sirius Black and that Harry never got the opportunity to live with him. But you can‘t beat this ending!

Buddy reading with my niece. Couldn‘t be more proud.

Spotted on the school playground (they had field day yesterday so I guess they got to play with chalk!)

So much was just revealed!

I saw a buzzfeed quiz about HP & realized that 15 yrs ago (when this movie came out), I was recovering from a fall off a cliff & was mad that I couldn‘t go see PoA yet. I had finally gotten into HP & this one was the first of the movies I would see in the theater. When I was able to walk again (about July), my sister took me, with external fixators in my arm & my pillow. It‘s still an important movie to me & usually my favorite book of the series.

Finally on the third book! 🤗 I‘m so excited to meet Sirius and see how the story unravels .-. I‘ve really enjoyed this series—this world. 🖤💛❤️💙💚

I had to take a break from this guy to get through 2 #netgalley ARCs that published late last month, but now I'm back to focusing on my other CRs. Maybe it's because I stopped reading it for a time and came back, but this one just isn't capturing my attention like the first 2.
I've had a lot of people tell me that book 3 is the best of the series, but I'm not seeing it so far.

Hogsmeade is definitely a place I‘d want to visit!

After all this time?

Always! ♥️

Being in the mood for Harry Potter has turned into a full series reread and it's glorious ⚡

Battered by camping trips and rough handling in my school bag, but I still love this book 🧡 My favourite in the series since I started reading them all those years ago.
This term has been so busy, I'm so glad to be able to sit down and finally finish it!

Good

Had to borrow this from ig
So LA.

Starting this today! I don't know why I put series off so much. I read a book and then read about 3-5 books before starting the next book in the series.
Does anyone else do that?

The hubs @TheWhiteHatter just told me that the Prisoner of Azkaban house editions are available for preorder, and he went ahead and preordered them. Hufflepuff for him, and Ravenclaw for me. 💛💙⚡️

Introducing my 6 year old to Harry Potter with the gorgeous illustrated editions. Goblet of Fire doesn‘t release until November 😩

I was told this third book in the HP Series was better than the first two and thankfully that was very much true. I actually enjoyed reading this one! It has a stronger story, better character development and the story elements are much more connected.

The last few weeks have been work, mark and apply for jobs on repeat. There's been no time for reading and I've been too stressed to try! But the sun today has brought some good news, a little time for reading and Mr Whippy to my street! Thank you Sun-day!

Catching up. These are the big #brothers I wouldn't mind having!

Best books

I started rereading this series again because between the new puppy, and this bronchitis that feels never ending, I‘ve been too tired to read physical books. But I‘m happy I did, because these books (in any form) are really like old friends. ❤️💛💙💚⚡️

I‘m continuing on with my reread of this series on Audible. ❤️

Reading this series for the first time and I'm finally starting book 3. I finished book 2 in March, if I'm not mistaken, and I need to keep going. I don't know why I have a hard time starting this book when I loved the first 2!

Can we all just stand up so we can bow down to the great JK. I am so happy to be re-re-reading this series.

Do you absolutely need another Patronus test after Pottermore? Yes. Yes you do.

Calm down, it's just a scratch

I thought that this book was good not definitely not as good as the first few books. I loved the part where harry had to think of a happy memory to help energize his spell.

Modern fantasy and was written in 1999. This book is how a prisoner from Azkaban has escaped wanted to come and kill Harry Potter. The book begins with harry sending his of family members into space by inflating her. After this he went to Hogwarts, where he finds out that a prisoner from Azkaban has escaped and is coming for him. Harry trains with professor lupin to defend himself serious black.

I‘m on campus so couldn‘t confirm in my paper copy (though I just realized that the English books are probably also on Kindle Unlimited so I COULD confirm 🙄) but I heard “pelo” in a context that didn‘t make sense so I figured it was a colloquialism and went to look it up. I remembered the phrasing in English as being something like, “you‘re having me on,” (a more PG version of “taking the piss”), and when I googled that, I got all fanfic 😂

Recs from my Audible library for #MayMadness #Recommendsday Book to Movie/TV adaptations! I hope I added a few unique ones to the mix.😊

If Beale Street Could Talk
Murder on the Orient Express
Black Kkklansman

Born a Crime - no release date but how exciting!
Couldn't fit in collage: Any Harry Potter! But the tagged is 1 of my favs

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban is one of my favorite books in the series. Students will enjoy this book.

The coffee all smells delicious. I LOVE this mug and the black dog coffee so so so much 🖤🖤🖤 I‘m going to use it every day!

Got a new letterboard and this was the first quote that popped into my head. Please ignore the remains of my dead succulent in the elephant 😂

Loved it. Reading the series with my daughter and watching the films alongside. I think the third book stands out as being the best so far (from the 4 I've read) but the third film stands out even more than the book because the directing is so good. Definitely enjoyable as an adult, even though I didn't read them when I was younger!

I got behind on the #hpbuddy read last month, so I just finished the third book today. Still loving it all over again. It‘s been long enough that I had forgotten so many wonderful details. I of course can‘t recommend this series enough!
