I’ve been wanting to do this for years. I live in South Florida; the water is beautiful here – there’s no reason why I shouldn’t just do it. The only thing holding me back is the cost. I vow to find a way to pay for it this year!

I started reading them when 6 came out and vowed to finish 1-6 before 7 was released. I just finished 4 – I like how the story gets darker and caters to a more grown-up audience as the series progresses.
I’m curious to see if J. K. Rowling will write something different after 7 – maybe an adult novel, even. Her style of writing is just so good – easy and straightforward, but rich. I would love to see how she’d handle something completely different.
Well worth it… I quit 8 months ago and I still have cravings sometimes, but then there’s that rare occasion when I’m standing next to a heavy smoker who smells like stale smoke, and I think, “I am so glad I’m not enslaved to that anymore!”
I took Wellbutrin for a few months prior to quitting, and that helped me to cut way, way back. I culled my smoking down pretty easily until one day I just had to stop having my two or three cigarettes a day. That part was tough, but I did it. I definitely recommend the Wellbutrin! I don’t know how I would’ve done it without that.
