I remember being so annoyed with Hermione in the first few movies, because Emma Watson was such a little over-actress... but she really grew on me over time. And Emma Watson has grown into such a spectacular, self-possessed young woman. Go Hermione, go! ;) L-Diggittyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13313078497401810812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5639675212408846217.post-51344057981203719942015-01-26T23:14:15.861-05:002015-01-26T23:14:15.861-05:00I need that illustrated copy of Harry Potter!

And ye...I cannot wait for the illustrated HP book! And yes, Harry and Ron would be so dead without Hermione- but what I've always loved about the trio is how much they really needed one another. <br /><br />Unhappy endings... I like authentic endings, whether happy or unhappy. I don't like when things are unexpectedly wrapped up in a shiny, happy bow, but I've also read endings that felt like a cop out- like the author really didn't know how to end it, so they killed someone off or left it dangling. So, while a lot of my book club girls has a problem with the end of Gone Girl, for instance, I didn't because I felt it was an authentic end for Nick and Amy. ;) Kate @Midnight Book Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01220575670960466054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5639675212408846217.post-86457575980836487542015-01-25T21:41:31.383-05:002015-01-25T21:41:31.383-05:00The Hermione post was pretty spot on and funny :) ...The Hermione post was pretty spot on and funny :) And I'm soooo in love with the new illustrations - I love them the more and more I see them! Now to just save my pennies until October...<br /><br />About sad endings - well, I do prefer happy endings, but I see your point about sadder endings. I certainly am not a fan when all plot points are wrapped up in a bow and when all characters find love and are paired together. But I just can't enjoy an ending where there is no hope whatsoever to be had! Just hurts my heart.Ayleehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07639250102446794830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5639675212408846217.post-16694056150967094712015-01-24T20:22:22.205-05:002015-01-24T20:22:22.205-05:00They all sound like great blogs!
