This book is so good but also making my stomach hurt.

Spoiler alert: This book is really really really good.

This is the first of Carrie Fisher's books I've read and I'm only halfway through and I want to read everything else she's ever written.

I am going to be thinking about this one for a long, long time.

Monday night.

As something of a drama nerd, I like reading scripts and it was cool to read an HP story in that format. And both nifty and slightly disconcerting to see Harry & crew as adults my age. What I love most is seeing how this story tackled flaws--flaws in its own new protagonists, in the old protagonists we know so well, & in revered "wise" characters.

Harry is 37. I am almost 37. I don't know how to feel.

Do not offend the gods.

The most rewarding re-read there is.

This book is nerd perfection. The way it pulls back the curtain on the creative process and creative choices made to shape a narrative hits all the right buttons. It would be especially illuminating for anyone writing historical fiction.

Pretty sure this book is where I learned the word exasperating.

"She thought how wonderful it would be to have an imagination like Ramona's."

So so good!

Went in for one book.

Nightstand books.

From ELIGIBLE by Curtis Sittenfeld, which seems not to be in the database yet but is maybe this untitled one.
