I don't really have much else to say, though. Unlike some speedy readers, I am only 70 pages into Harry Potter Goes To Phoenix, though I've invested less than an hour into it so far. I had already planned on letting Casey plow through it first because I knew she'd be finished in a matter of days. I'll be happy if I polish it off in under two weeks. I think sometimes my problem is finding the time. Though I do read the adventures of Potter faster than I read any other books, I'm just not able to fly through books like that. Maybe I try to visualize too much, or remember and internalize too much. My friend Matt's the same way � growing up, he'd always fly through our required reading books in school, then polish off a Stephen King tome for dessert. But maybe I'll be better off: As Heather pointed out to me, now she's got an even longer wait until Rowling gets around to pounding out the next book in another six years or so.
