Wow. I just saw something that makes this forum look super tame.
Its usually tame without the ladies present. >_>
I know, right? Like we sit here and talk about weather and going to work, but the moment Yomi or Kali pops in, suddenly everyone wants to talk about boobs or favorite positions and ***. It's also ironic that you say that, because what I saw was on a forum for women.
The dark undertones of the last few books (I don't know everything, but I have an understanding of them) will actually be a perfect segue for getting into reading like Milton's Paradise Lost or Dante's Inferno. I absolutely see the benefit in having HP on my curriculum. I don't think I'd go so far as to make it required reading, but depending on the district standards, they may ask that I have students read an allotment of books before their year is complete, to which I can make recommendations. A series that morphs and becomes more adult would be perfect for students going into reading the classics when they enter college.

So I've been reading Harry Potter for the past 2-3 hours and am at about page 184. So far... I dunno. I can't really get into it. I can see why it appeals to kids, but I don't think I'll continue in the series when I'm done with this book.
The series kinda matures along side Harry, the first couple books are definitely for children but I would have a hard time recommending the later books to children. Just my take on it though.
I think it was the right move.
She wasn't releasing the books at an extraordinarily fast rate, so she wanted to keep the books with the age group she originally aimed for.
Now it might be a bit controversial for kids today, but I think it was the right move to keep the fans interested after each book came out.
Yeah it is definitely what kept me going with the books. If they were all like the first one I probably would have stopped half way though.
Well, by kids I mean 9-12th grade. Absolutely the first one would be good for middle to high school kids, but when they're in their Sophomore class, I could see them reading the last few books for credit in my class. I won't shun it just because it doesn't appeal to me. In my eyes, it's just another book on the curriculum.
Oh... I was thinking like elementary school kids with the last books being high school... Then again I've been reading books with sex, slaughter, child killing, and incest since gr 9 so maybe I'm not the best judge XD.
A 24-year-old Kitchener, Ont. woman whose torso was found in a large garbage bin on the weekend was “ fundamentally a decent person” who had spent years struggling with drug addiction and run-ins with the criminal justice system, her lawyer told the local newspaper.
You know a person probably was a piece of crap when that's the best they can say...

Idk... there's people I couldn't even say that about...
This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
