Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

I just finished listening to the audio book version of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. Man! I was left in tears. This book continued where The Goblet of Fire left off. Great writing!

The Order of the Phoenix was not all that great in my opinion. A whiney and very illogical Harry Potter was just stupid. Sure, the book sorta explained WHY, but I don't think it made up for the long, drawn-out intro the book. It was tedious.

But as I said, The Half-Blood Prince picked up where Goblet of Fire left off. Exciting and a well-developed story. Through probably still not as good as the later book.

Yet, I'm not sure what hit me so hard as Dumbledore died. And Snape ran off. Or the devoutly loyal friendship of Herminome and Ron. It was touching and powerful, but man... I was bawling at the end.

I had music flowing through my head. Thinking about the type of stuff we can expect from the movie when it finally arrives. Course, we still have several movies more to catch up with. The Goblet of Fire won't be out until December I think. And The Order of the Phoenix is just now in production.

There's a lot marketing still to be done for the movies. But this book will be killer on the screen.

I can imagine a beautiful aire of celtic music played on a solo flute or something. Whatever the case, the movie will be spectacular!
