smart idea FD, but you actually forgot one

Grr! It's not showing up! it's there when I bring up the edit box! I'm working on it.

All better! Picky, picky HTML -- forget one little bit of punctuation and it throws everything off!

there, it's there!

And I've updated the list -- now all of the CoS threads are linked.

All PoA threads are linked!

Go foggi!

All right -- all of the threads for Goblet of Fire have been linked!

Whoo hoo, foggi!

Aaaaaand all of the threads for Order of the Phoenix have been linked! Everyone, get ready -- next week we start Half-Blood Prince! This would be a great time to join the discussion!

All Half-Blood Prince discussion threads are linked! I'm so excited about the upcoming Deathly Hallows reread!

All right -- this thread is up to date. Though we're on our last discussion thread, I definitely plan to keep this thread linked on the homepage for future rereaders, so they can add their thoughts as they go!

Wow, we're at the end of an era....sniff, sniff.

What series should we read next? (No, not that one!

It has to be That One! I'm almost done reading The Book for the 3rd time. I'm ready for a discussion.

Let me know when you're done, then. I'll join in the next time.

sigh

To be honest, after reading the new book I was thinking it would make a fun reread, but I also think this might be a good time for one of Foggi and K's famous polls.

ETA: Finish thoughts bib! There are plenty of other series that I also think would be fun to discuss. I would say LotR, but I think Green Dragon just finished or is in the middle or something. Thursday Next could be fun....other suggestions?

Thank you for all the links, foggi! :)

#13 LG:
KIK!

#16 bib:
That sounds like a good idea! Should we start a new thread for suggestions?

I don't think the Green Dragon has done a LotR reread. They did The Hobbit a while back.

Should we start a new thread for this?

LOL, Kerian! Great minds think alike, hmm?

KIK. Yes. Would you like to start it? :)

Sure!
