Oh, my wizards and witches, darlings. So, I don't know if you've heard or not but 1) Rox was in Brazil and 2) there are these little books floating about with this little lead character who is a wizard with a lightning bolt on his forehead or something as such. Ever heard of Mr. Potter? Well, as you know, Rox told Popsters that no one in Brazil speaks English. However, I did find it quite a love potion that as I strolled past my favorite shop for a coca-cola light and a pastry with frango in it (chicken) I noticed a little Brazilian bookseller was putting out copies of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows -- in INGLES!!! I immediately dove into my cute little Tumi shoulder bag for some raels to be one of the first in Rio (or at least on that street and/or in that shop) to buy the final installment of JK Rowling's historic Harry Potter series. I was so thrilled that I bought two and the shop keeper is now flying an American Flag -- or at least linking to Things That Go Pop now. Anywhere, I have read 312 pages of the book so far and, let me tell you this, darlings, it is fabulous. One of the things I love about Rowling is that she's very unpredictable. I mean, I guessed (much to my friends' shagrins) Bruce Willis was dead in Sixth Sense about 1/4 through the first screening -- shows you how bitter and jaded the Roxster is. So far, Rowling has shocked and surprised me -- some good and some bad, darlings. Will give you a full report when I'm finished. So far, it's pure literary magic!
