Harry Potter anxiety // Firefly
Jul. 16th, 2005 06:07 pmOkay, so I got the sixth Harry Potter book. And I'm too scared to read it. I'm totally spoiler-free this time and it seems I can't take the suspense. I just don't want to be disappointed.
I don't want to see Cardboard!Draco for example, because, hey, I think he has potential. (I enjoy his snark and his drama queen moments. I even appreciate that he's not courageous.) Also don't want to see the "All Slytherin are evil!" routine once more.
