Sophie Reads: Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, Parts 1&2 by J.K. Rowling, Jack Thorne and John Tiffany

Hello Everyone!
I hope you are all doing well! I have just been slacking on the blogging game and I apologize for that. But I will be back because I have a couple of ideas for different blog posts. But now I have another Sophie Reads and boy am I excited for this one.

Something you all should know about me is that I am obsessed with Harry Potter. When I was younger, I had trouble reading. For me, I had to get tutored in reading and I am forever thankful to my teacher who tutored me. One of the ways my mom got me to read and push myself was that she to paid me to read. My first book that she paid me to read was Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone by J.K. Rowling. That book changed my life and I am forever grateful for my mom for paying me $5 to read it. And that is where my love for Harry Potter came from!

But now onto the book review! Today, I will be reviewing for you the new Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, Parts 1 & 2

Summary:

This Harry Potter script takes place nineteen years later from the last Harry Potter book. This is written in script form instead of an actual book because it was performed in London.
This script is mainly based on Albus Severus Potter, Harry Potter's son. Throughout Albus's time at Hogwarts, things begin to change. Harry is dealing with his past and Albus is dealing with the difficulty of being Harry's son. Throughout this script, the power of revenge, family, and power comes into play and changes the way how the world of magic will be forever.

My Thoughts:
As someone who was in theatre for a couple of years, I know how difficult it can be to read a script and truly get into the characters mindset. In a book, there is more description and it helps you truly get into that specific world. Saying that, I did not get into the first 20 pages. I was actually extremely disappointed. I just could not get into the mindset to truly enjoy the story. But as I kept reading on and pushing forward, I began to fall in love with the story. I began to get extremely attached again like I did before in the past books.

When I finished the script, I wanted to read more. I felt that I wanted to go back and reread all the other Harry Potter books. This script made me really fall back in love with reading again. There has been a lot going on in my life but this script and sitting down and reading it made me so happy that I realized why I love reading again.

My last thought is that if everyone who is a Harry Potter fan, you will love this script. There are some characters that you hated in the previous books that you will praise. I know....shocking. But trust me, you will, or at least I did. But overall, I highly recommend this script. If you have not read the other books, you would not understand anything that this script is talking about. One thing I am hoping is that this will be created into a movie. I would be oh so happy and I know millions of people would as well.

I hope you all enjoyed this blog post. I have truly missed writing and talking about things that I love and have been enjoying. I hope you all have a wonderful day or night wherever you are and I cannot wait to keep writing for you all!

Carpe Diem,
Sophia

Battle of the BB Creams!

Hello everyone! Now as you all can tell, I love the Battle of the series. The reason why is because I can review a bunch of products for you all in one blog post. Since it is summer and not many of you want to wear a ton of make up, I thought I would tell you my favorite BB creams. I also want to let you know that there might not be many blog posts in the month of July. The reason is because I am in college at the moment and I am super busy. I will try to put up as many as I can but I just want to let you all know! :) I hoped you all had a wonderful June! What is a BB cream?    Now BB stands for blemish balm. A BB cream is supposed to have a moisturizer, primer, concealer, skin treatment and foundation all in one. BB creams have been all the rage for a while now but not many people talk about them anymore.   NOW LET'S GET READY TO RUMBLE! Round 1: This is the  L'oreal Magic Skin Beautifier BB Cream . This BB cream was one of the first BB creams that ...

Must Have Nail Polish for Spring!

Hi everyone! I hope you all are doing well. Now that I have started talking about spring, I am so ready for it!  My last post  was about my favorite spring trends for 2014 and today I want to talk about nail polish! I love nail polish. It makes me so happy when I am writing notes and all of a sudden I look down and see my nails painted in a pretty color. It brightens my day! It's all about the small things in life. Essie's Play Date This color just screams spring to me. This is one of my all time favorite nail polishes and every time spring and summer comes around, this is the first nail polish I put on.  You're Such a Budapest This color is gorgeous. I do not personally own this color....yet! I will be getting it this spring because this is like a lavender/periwinkle purple. This color is a perfect color to transition color from winter to spring. Essie's Sand Tropez  This is another color that I don't own.....but I will. I honestly think ...

First Impression: Sephora Favorites Meet Your Match!

Hello everyone! I am super excited to be doing my first first impression blog post! Yay! Now I got this a while ago but I have not really touched it or played around with it. A first impression is basically my opinion on these products and how I think of them the first time I swatch them, use them , stuff like that. Now this is a value set from Sephora and it is the  Sephora Favorites Meet Your Match .  Now this was pretty popular among some YouTubers a while back and I really liked the products and wanted to try them and it was only $25 for 6 sample size products. Which I thought was a pretty good deal.  Packaging:  I love the packaging. I thought it stands out because of the bright colors and the interesting print on the cardboard. I also love the concept of matching you lip gloss to your nail polish. I thought it was a really fun idea for summer.  Match 1: This is the first lip product that I want to tell you all about an...
