If only Harry Potter was written this eloquently, the story could have been something, but the actual prose underestimates the attention spans of young readers.
Kinda weird that it’s going to be an HBO show. Think they’re going to up the violence?

Think you'll stick with it? Honestly each book gets better and delves more deeply than you'd expect from a supposed "children's" book.
I do. They've confirmed that they're keeping all the details of the authority, the church and the like in. I've high hopes for it for sure. I want to watch the film just to see what exactly they did with it.
