All Things Harry Potter!
I know! I read them and re-read them... actually, my dad tells me to stop and read other books. It's not like I only read Harry Potter... mostly. ;)
Yeah, I'm in intermediate French, so yeah. I bet if you memorized a whole book it would be easier....
I'm almost there... mostly, it was hard because:
#1: I like French better, but in only taking one year, I decided to try it in Spanish, first. Bad idea.
#2: The book isn't word-for-word. A lot is lost in translation.
"Dudley had finally achieved what he'd been threatening to do since he was two- he'd finally gotten wider than he was tall." turned into "Dudley had become what he threatened since two years. He was too fat for tall."or something along those lines.

IKR. I got there and I was like............I thought it was supposed to be funny. I was disappointed.
Yeah, I totally agree. It was kinda funny, but anyway, has anyone seen A Very Potter Musical and/or A Very Potter Sequel?

All literature is more realistic than Twilight. This turned into a ten minute conversation in one of my classes.

It's a perfect example of how not to create a character. She makes Bella completely 1 dimensional by attempting to make her universal, which defeats the purpose of being a person.
She does that so tha she's preoared for not being a person. Like it was her destiny.
Ok, thay sounds bad to even me. But some if the content was good.

Good characters have depth or the lack of, they have a personality, and they have a drive. Bella has none of those things. She's what is known to the Internet as a Mary Sue.
