4. The Tales of Beedle the Bard


Very cute book! I love fairy tales so I really enjoyed reading wizard fairy tales! My favourite story had to be either "The Wizard and the Hopping Pot" or "Babbitty Rabbitty and her Cackling Stump"! I also thought having little footnotes by J.K. Rowling and including Dumbledore's thoughts on each tale was very clever. J.K. Rowling is truly The Master of her created universe!

It's 2009, bitches!! I definitely read 40+ books last year (omfg Twilight). So proud of myself!! Yay for reading!! :)

My goal for this year is 50 books and this time I will keep track! I probably won't write reviews, maybe some brief thoughts but I'll definitely keep a list.
