Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince

For the past few weeks, I've been reading Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince. It's been a long time since I've read Harry Potter and I found myself missing the series. I saw that it was on tv one night and I decided to pick up where I left off. In third grade, I started reading Harry Potter and then I got to the fourth book and decided to stop. I'm not sure when I read the fifth book, I just remember that I did. Now I've found myself on the sixth book, finally

I started reading it and found it very slow. The whole scene where Bellatrix and Narcissa visit Snape at his home was grueling. It also probably seemed that way because I kept taking breaks over a week or two. Now, Harry is arriving at Hogwarts, finally, at page 160. I've also been reading other things so this process is slow. However, I feel like a part of me is reading slowly because I don't think I want to get to Dumbledore's death, let alone the seventh book. Who knows, though, it may be another few years before I finally let the series end for me.
