PhuturePriest Posted May 11, 2013 Author Share Posted May 11, 2013 There are so many amazing characters in there too. I think one of my faves HAS to be Snape. Youll find out why at the end. :w00t: I finished the first book this morning. I got the second one and I'll begin reading it tonight, plus I have a lot of traveling I'm going to do tomorrow, so I'll probably get at least half of it read in no time like I did the first one.

CrossCuT Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 If you liked the first one that much...oh boy are you in for a treat. I feel like the earlier ones are waaaay boring in comparison to the later ones because the plot hasnt been given as much time to simmer! SOOOOOOO many crazy cool things happen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nihil Obstat Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 One summer, I think when there were only six books out by then, I spent a week and powered through the whole thing. :hehe2: First two books on day one, then a book a day up to Half Blood Prince.

Nihil Obstat Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 (edited) I was probably 14-15, and in between school semesters. I had time for everything. (Also I read quite quickly.) Edited May 11, 2013 by Nihil Obstat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhuturePriest Posted May 11, 2013 Author Share Posted May 11, 2013 I was probably 14-15, and in between school semesters. I had time for everything. (Also I read quite quickly.) I don't read really quickly. I mean, quick enough to read a book in two days (And I didn't dedicate every hour to them; just a few here and a few there), but I like to read it as if it were really happening, so when people speak, they speak at normal speeds and I imagine them speaking. If it's an older person (Such as Dumbledore), I slow down the speech, or if it is a character that speaks quickly I read quicker than usual at those parts.

Yeah, that isn't how my brain processes books. I do read in different 'voices', but there isn't any link between the speed I'm actually reading, and the way I perceive those different voices.

Nihil Obstat Posted May 11, 2013 Share Posted May 11, 2013 Also one time I beat all of LoZ: Ocarina of Time in a week. That was quite possibly the same summer. Not really a speed run, because I didn't know or have any desire to abuse glitches to skip parts, so it was just a legit, more or less 100% playthrough.

Haha, I just have an insanely imaginative mind, so I wouldn't read at all if I wasn't able to read as if it were really happening. :P I also have a voice for the narration, which is always a man (No matter the gender of the author), and I read at a normal speed for those parts, too. Sometimes I'll read a part that really intrigues me and I'll stop reading for a moment so I can think and imagine about it, and if I were in the same situation. As I said, I have a super imaginative mind. :P It really is a pain, sometimes, because it truly has no off-switch. My showers take half an hour because I spend so much time thinking and imagining things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just impressed that you beat the game period. The Legend of Zelda is always so hard for me because I am so amazingly terrible at the puzzles. I usually need a walk-through with me at all times so I can get through the dungeons. That being said, The Legend of Zelda is really awesome, particularly Ocarina of Time, though I think I love it the most for sentimental reasons, really.

I mean, of course, The Chronicles of Narnia and The Lord of the Rings have magic in them, but Harry Potter has a wand, so it's totally different!
