ria_oaksOoh, one other note that I just remembered - I was at the bookstore today and noticed that Harry Potter was one of the required texts for Eng468 (Childrens Lit). Damn, I want to take that course now. If only so I can bitch at the teacher about how Harry Potter isn't a children's book. Mwah. I mean, JK Rowling herself has said so... honestly. -_-
Course, one will notice that the particular book was Philosopher's Stone (and I noticed Prisoner of Azkaban, too), not Order of the Phoenix. Heh, somehow I doubt they could justify putting OotP into a childrens lit course... *g* Honestly, even PoA I wouldn't consider particularly childish... PS and CoS I can potentially see, but PoA? Pretty dark. Never minding GoF... ^^ I will just sit here and wait for the day when the series will be on a normal 20th century English lit course... maybe she'll convince the world once and for all in books 6 and 7. ^^ Especially given that she's said they'll only get darker from here. *grins*
It feels good to talk about HP. Wee. I miss it. Should read them again, or at least read some fanfic... Hmm, Carole's put up the newest chapter for A Sirius Change recently; should really read that.
