October 30, 2018October 29, 2018 ~ bats ~ 2 Comments

This week I capped off the Harry Potter series in Spanish.  It didn’t exactly take me by surprise that I’m done with it now, as I’ve been reading through the whole series quite avidly and more or less sprinted my way through the final book, but the fact is it’s over.
