Waiting for Potter.

I may not be 9-12, the recommended age group for Harry Potter books, but I've enjoyed every one of them and you bet I'm waiting for the fifth book just as eagerly as anyone else! I was prejudiced against Potter for a long time as I felt that nothing could compare to the magic of Enid Blyton, and the first book was no shakes, but each subsequent book was wonderful enough to make me a convert. I wonder though, how 9 year old kids could manage to make sense of The Goblet of Fire which is only a fraction smaller than War and Peace!
Meanwhile, kids and adults are speculating on what surprises The Order of the Phoenix will bring. The speculation ranges from Potter's romantic inclinations to the fate of Dumbledore. Hmm.. I"ll just wait till I find someone to lend me a copy.
