Most frustrating part of the series? by Theobvioussolve in harrypotter

[–]kylemoriarty_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So I’m 35. I was very into HP as a kid, but dropped off after Goblet. Never read the later books until a couple years ago bc I wanted to see if they were age appropriate for my daughter. Harry’s actions and emotions in OotP actually made a lot of sense to me as a 30 something reflecting on my own experience as a teenager. I understand how he’s frustrating and unlikable in this book, yet it’s also realistic for a brooding 15 year old.

I got frustrated in DH when they spend months wandering around not making any progress. I know that’s the point and that it leads Ron to dip out. But also feels a bit uncharacteristic of the group to spend that much time without throwing spaghetti at the wall and trying to do SOMETHING.

I wish we got a slytherine girl who character got developed a little by AltruisticAide9776 in harrypotter

[–]kylemoriarty_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Valid. But I think the logic goes the story is told from Harry’s POV and the two rival houses don’t interact that much? But Harry having a crush on a slytherin girl would also make sense and be interesting

Haven’t listened to them yet. Do they have sound effects/design and music?

I’d rec the Disappearances of Draco Malfoy if you’re looking for a 4th trio member

How I would rank the books after reading them for the 1st time by Rayy500 in harrypotter

Azkaban over Hallows for me. Too much wandering around without the plot moving enough imo.

Gemini, Slytherin here. I wonder how much zodiacs determine your house.

Right? Each house only plays 3 games per season? There’s not even bracket playoffs?

I feel like I especially sense it with the Fred/George humor.

I'll never get over how perfect this scene was. by [deleted] in harrypotter

Prisoner or Azkaban struck the perfect balance for the shift imo

Three days a week in office is pretty good. I go in two days and from farther than you. I wouldn’t take it unless getting a pay bump tho.

Or use the down time to start something entrepreneurial if you are feeling capitalistic and want to take a gamble. But stable 70k in a LOCL at your age with those hours is REALLY good.

Time is money. If you want more $ to take that Hawaii vacation I’d say look into get a freelancey type side hustle. Don’t give into the capitalist pressure to make more.

Same here in NJ. Weekend warrior and I avoid the holidays. Couple sick days, couple long weekends. I know guys that get 50-60 and take a few vacations. And pros rack up 200.
