Final Blogging Assessment- Prisoner to a good book

So, for this post (which is my last), I'm writing about Prisoner of Azkaban by J. K. Rowling- who, may I add, is pretty much the best author ever! I totally love her, she's interesting and adds a ton of description and hilarious scenes, but she also gets straight to the point. Like instead of using a whole page to write about what something looks like, she just uses a paragraph. J. R. R. Tolkien (Lord of the Rings) writes brilliantly, but you kind of have to slog through his books because they're just so long. And let's be frank, if you're the author, you need an exciting first chapter to get people hooked. J. R. R. Tolkien only has like one exciting moment in the first book and that is where Gandalf falls into a ravine with a troll. But anyway, there's this really great quote in there

“I dreamed I was buying new shoes last night," said Ron. "What d'ya think that's gonna mean?"
"Probably that you're going to be eaten by a giant marshmallow or something," said Harry.”

Basically this is the year that Ron and Harry (and Hermione, but she drops the class) take Divination. Which is a totally imprecise art, hence, the joke. Divination is actually alot like a good book. It's really hard to find a good book that you like, and other people can suggest books and there's that long list of top book sellers, but to find a good book that you really like isn't easy. It takes guess and check and a whole lot of bad books before you can find a good book. And some people (like Hermione) just don't read because it's so hard to find a good or great book.

Well, then, goodbye all my lovely readers, see you next year!
