Reading this book was not! It’s even more HP-centric than the title implies, and that was just fine with me. (I’m glad to find it can still be enjoyable when not a certain someone is not involved!) Loved hearing Tom’s thoughts on Draco and his cast mates (especially his fellow duck Emma Watson), and his wise words regarding mental health. Draco really did turn out good in the end. 💚

You know what, Bookwyrm might be better than Goodreads simply based on half stars and not dictating what each one represents.

Anyway, super impressed with the audiobook. There’s moments where Mariah’s as campy as can be, and others where you hear her voice break as she bares her soul. Oh, and she sings! Songs from her albums that this casual radio listener wasn’t familiar with, but it’s fascinating to hear them as she tells the stories that inspired her lyrics. Highly, highly recommend.

Eisner including the origin story of his hoarse voice is camp. I think.

There's probably more to get out of this if you don't already listen to the podcast, but it did bring back memories of seeing my own BFF every day yet never running out of things to say. Perhaps we should try the Ramble thing.

I read the first one last year just to get to the sequel, which I’d heard was totally bonkers. Let me tell you, the 102 Dalmatians film where Cruella is literally baked into a cake is not even half as bonkers as this.

I had to listen to the last hour again to be sure I hadn't missed something. I want so much more for every woman in this novel.

I watched the film first, so I couldn't not hear Charlie in Rex Harrison's voice, but he gave a much better performance in my mind.

A rare case where I prefer the televised version to the books. It turns out what always seemed too good to be true really was. But real life Rae Earl is hilarious and painfully relatable and got the happy ending she deserves. That's a good one right there.

...was this a novel to explain why Wedge is in The Rise of Skywalker?
