Initially I wasn’t keen on Harry Potter, but it has ended up becoming a rather massive part of this blog, with hundreds upon hundreds of comments, and massive conversation the visitors to Binary Moon always increase when a new film or book is released.
Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince
I don’t know if it’s just because I have read books 5 and 6 the least, and not recently either, but I thought that Half Blood Prince was the best Harry Potter film so far.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Review
Well, it took me all day but I managed it. I had to get some sleep before writing this but here I am letting you know what I think.
