Stuff about that book.

I put my social life first, so I only started reading two hours ago. I've got plans tonight, so I expect I'll finish tomorrow at some point. But I just had to say since I am 1/3rd of the way through The Book...

200 pages in and this is 50 times better than Order of the Phoenix. Why? Because OMG Slytherins EVERY-FUCKING-WHERE!

We got more mention in the first 50 pages than in the last five book combined.

Plus, Jack Sloper.

And Narcissa. (I will never refer to her a Cissy, that's just insulting).

And no waiting until the end for the Dumbledore chats. My gods. Has this woman learned something.

Did I mention all the Slytherin business? And that she's mentioned Theodore twice?

Of course you know my favouritest bit already.

BLAISE! He's black. And hot. And super smart. And his mom was married seven times and did a Bluebeard on all her husbands. This is now my favouritest bit of canon ever. Unless she talks about Theodore more.

I must re-cast Blaise now. I don't mind. Thandie Newton will be his mom.

Ahahahahahahahahaha. Actually, he's less than a year younger than I am; no worries there! Just... I have issues with book!Oliver versus movie!Oliver. Lusting after the Biggerstaff is all well and good (and happens every time I watch either of the first two movies), and he's Oliver some of the time, but... he's not *Real Oliver*, who is really a bit sociopathic and probably less pretty and more *hot*, and completely likely to beat the crap out of the entire Slytherin quidditch team if it means winning the Cup. Oh, the not-so-noble Gryffindors, how I love them.

I'm on the lookout for a book!Oliver photo...

[livejournal.com profile] ethrosdemon browbeat me into casting Ewan McGregor (http://pics.livejournal.com/hackthis/gallery/00007twp) as Oliver. Whoa, the hardship ;)

Such pain and suffering you endure for your art! ;)
