Boulders, Heartstrings, and thoughts on The Prisoner of Azkaban

April 27, 2017 by faintingviolet 3 Comments

As we’ve discussed before, I haven’t reread the Harry Potter books in over a decade. For Prisoner of Azkaban, that probably puts the last time around late 2003 or early 2004.

Hey Cannonballers, I’m sure the thing you were thinking you needed most in the world right now was a third cannonballer embarking upon a Harry Potter reread for CBR9.

I have comments on Halbs and ingres77’s reviews to back it up. But the desire to do so started before 2015… I’m pretty sure it’s one of the many […]
