How to Stop Time
by Matt Haig
This was out second book club read. Never finished it - I'm the worst book club member there is ...
Before the Coffee Gets Cold

Books I read as a kid
Harry Potter und die Heiligtümer des Todes
by J. K. Rowling
A very interesting read. I hated it though that they made two movies and so I had to wait longer for those than expected ...
Harry Potter und der Halbblutprinz
by J. K. Rowling
First I had to wait for this one to release. When we got our copy at midnight I immediately started reading. It then took me about two day (alongside school) to finish this one.
Harry Potter und der Orden des Phönix
by J. K. Rowling
I started reading this one, but I really wanted to watch the movie. Then I only pretended to have read it (as it was really long). After watching the movie though, I felt guilty and finished the book.
Harry Potter und der Feuerkelch
by J. K. Rowling
This for me was the most interesting story of Harry Potter I've read so far.
Harry Potter und der Gefangene von Askaban
by J. K. Rowling
I really started to enjoy reading and so finished this one rather quickly as well.
Harry Potter und die Kammer des Schreckens
by J. K. Rowling
I was very fixated on the movies but I had to read the books first, so I read this book in a week.
Harry Potter und der Stein der Weisen
by J. K. Rowling
This was the first book I ever read. It surely awakend my interest for fantasy literature.
and many more …
