So, I was going to post this ultra long review of the very last Harry Potter book, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Book 7). I was mentally taking notes on the points I felt most mentioning while reading it. I was working out exactly how to describe how awesome the book is without revealing anything. And then, wouldn't you know it? I found a review that was so much better than any I could have written.

I may have mentioned this website before. If not, I have definitely meant to. Its mainly a movie review site. At least that is how it started, but it has branched out. It now provides book reviews. I have to say that if I didn't love this site so much I would hate it. The site is called Pajiba. And you can find one of the best reviews of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Book 7) here. A word of warning about the review: If you don't want to be spoiled, don't read the comments.

Now, that I no longer have that review to write, I want to point you in the direction of something super cool. The nerd in me absolutely loves the idea of legal scholarship as applied to Harry Potter. Read some of the papers linked in the article. You will be shocked at how much study has gone into the Harry Potter series from a strictly legal standpoint.

One last thing. We are in year 2 of the Oasis Youth Shelter Book Drive. We did OK last year. But I am really wanting to go above and beyond. And I need your help with that. I feel that the simple act of giving may be its own reward, but its always cool to get something in return. To that end, I am asking you guys to tell me what my next incentive program should be.

I have a few ideas:

• Another matching program



• A prize giveaway to the person who donates the most.



• A hall of fame for our most prolific donors.



• A chance to see me humiliate myself in some way as a thank you to meeting a certain donation goal.
