#ChapterTwentyTwo

Excellent Women | Barbara Pym

The other day all Oklahoma Mesonet sites hit 103F/39C. First time in network's history (dating back to the mid 1990s) to have 120 sites hit that mark on the same day. Before that had 2 days with all cites 100F.

Maybe that's why this quote spoke to me. Such a beautiful way with words. For all my yelling at characters I'm loving this book.

Sparklemn I got behind on my reading but am slowly getting through it. In this chapter, she's finally realizing that she doesn't need to carry other people's burdens. Yay! 2y

While the realisation about The Resurrection Stone, and the other insights into the Deathly Hallows most fascinates me, this Potterwatch broadcast provides a lot of feels too. Harry spends so much time rehashing his seemingly unsuccessful quests, he forgets that 'out there', people are still on his side, believing in him, relying on him. It's good to be reminded.

I loved seeing Harry have some success, but it does take some serious magic to make it happen. Poor Harry, he needs so much help to get this done. Slughorn never really redeems himself in my eyes. Even now, he benefits.

The next line in the book is 'Harry could make neither head nor tail of this question'. Me too... I am glad some things are not clear to me at this stage. Makes me enjoy the ride so much better. They left most of this out of the film, didn't they?

It was fun and different to see Ron and Harry deal with giggling girls, awkward pauses, and epic rejection.
