Harry Potter and the Cursed Child

Curtain shot again. Also, I love the cover of this lovely book. 

“Love blinds. We have both tried to give our sons, not what they needed, but what we needed. We’ve been so busy trying to rewrite our own pasts, we’ve blighted their present.” -Harry Potter and the Cursed Child Parts one and two

Hello! I can't believe I have time to write about my feelings for this during such a crucial time. This week is about the eighth book of the beloved Harry Potter series-- Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. I got it a month after its initial release here in the Philippines because every copy of the book was sold in less than 24 hours. I had to wait for news about new stocks coming in and lo and behold, my mother, my sweet mother got me a copy.

Now, it's nice to note that this eighth story isn't anything like the books (although I know we've all been hoping for it to legitimately feel like it) because of it's a play so 1) it's not going to feel the same as reading the books 2) expect a fast read with less details on storytelling because it's meant to be staged where the actors and the sets and all that-- they'll be the ones responsible for the gritty little details we usually crave for in novels.

A very Potter Q&A

I sometimes wish I have two boy best friends like Harry and Ron. I'll be frst to admit that while I'm not exactly as smart as Hermione, I get teased a lot for working extra hard in school, and trying to follow the rules just because. I'm so happy that I found a strong, witty girl character who didn't have to change who she was to be to have guy friends who appreciate (and need) her. image source

Because I currently have no idea how to properly express my feelings on the whole of the Harry Potter series, I'm going to do something like this instead. An update: I am now considering myself a Potterhead after years and years of living in the dark from the HP series (am sorry. am a late bloomer)

I just finished The Cursed Child script book. I just got a copy of it recently (thanks mum for being so supportive of your little bookworm) and while I told myself to take time reading it, I finished it in almost a week. I'll be posting about it sometime this month. But for now, here's a little something about my Harry Potter adventure. I can't wait to reread the books soon.
