So this is all ABCFamily's fault, and probably another argument in favor of getting rid of my cable subscription (although maybe not). See, ABCFamily reran the first six Harry Potter movies over the weekend, so I had them playng in the background (and omg, I still cannot get through Half-Blood Prince with all my attention for some reason.

Um, everything up to and including all of Z's old HP (unless there's bad memories there that I don't know about - I seem to be stepping it lately). That part worked great for me in WA when I had no books yet.

I did find myself even more fond of Mark (who I've always like) this time through, and way more aware of just how douchey Miles can act sometimes.
