The heat's broken a little today, with intermittent rain. The perfect lazy day for lying around with a good book. And what do you know, I happen to have one.
One thing about it: it's better than OotP, as a book. It's immensely readable, nicely ordered and with a good climax. It's also less gloomy than you'd think. It only took me five hours this time; the first two in a cafe to take in the fresh air, but I kept laughing each time a fanfic I've read was Jossed out of existence, so after that I removed myself to my own home and bed.
( Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince spoilers beyond this point )
