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

Beauty and Random Favorites for 2014!

Happy 2015 Everyone! I hope that the start of 2015 is going well for you all. I am super excited to be sharing my top 2014 products with you. At the end of the blog post, I will be sharing some random favorites as well. I hope you all enjoy! Face: I have two favorite foundations for 2014. The first one is a high end foundation and it is the  Tarte Amazonian Clay 12- Hour Full Coverage Foundation . I have the shade Medium-Tan Honey. This is my special occasion foundation. Since it is pretty expensive ( $38) I do not want to use it every day. My favorite part of this foundation is how much it looks like skin on your face but it looks like a more flawless version of my skin. But I personally do not like the cake face look and I like the more natural look and this foundation gives it to me. The second foundation is from the drugstore and it is the  Loreal True Match Super-Blendable Make up . I am in the shade W3. I heard about this foundation all over YouTube but ...

Summer Foundation Routine 2015

Hi Everyone! I have been wanting to do this blog post for a couple of months now but I really wanted to test out the product and make sure that I really stand by my opinions. Everyone in the beauty community has been talking about the  L'Oreal Infallible Pro-Matte 24HR Foundation . I have been using my ride or die foundation, the L'Oreal True Match Foundation for years. So I was a little hesitant to try out a new foundation. Once I have found something I love, I don't like to stray away from it. I went to a couple of different places to figure out the best price for the foundation. This foundation can vary from $11 to $13, depending on where you go. I got mine at CVS because I had a coupon. I got my color in 107 Fresh Biege. I want to tell you two very important things about my skin. I have a yellow undertone to my skin and I have dry skin. Especially in my T zone area. So if you have a pink undertone, I do not recommend this foundation. Most of the ...

My Love for Pandora Jewelry!

Hello! I am super excited to be doing this blog post because it's about a topic that I have not really talked about on my blog. Today I will be talking about jewelry! Now ever since I was little, I have always wanted a Pandora bracelet. So many of my friends had them and my teachers had them and I was always so in love. Besides my Tiffany bracelet, my Pandora jewelry is my most prized jewelry pieces. So today I thought I would share my jewelry pieces from Pandora Jewelry  for you all! Three of the items I just got yesterday but I just had to share them with you because I am obsessed. So here we go! The first and my favorite Pandora item is my bracelet. The reason this is my favorite Pandora piece is because I got this as a graduation present from my parents and my little brother. My parents knew how much I wanted a Pandora bracelet and the fact that they took the time to pick out these charms specifically for my graduation present means the world to me. A lot of people thi...
