What are you reading on vacation?
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
Where did you get it?
My mom bought it in a bookstore in Tokyo the minute it went on sale.
How much did it cost?
I don't know, my mom bought it. [US$30 for the American edition]
What prompted you to read it?
I'm crazy about Harry Potter! I made my mom find a store where we could buy it, because we missed the midnight party at the Depot [in Duluth]. My mom says we got our book four hours before my friends at home. I wanted to call them up and tell them.
How are you liking it?
It's great! I made my mom and dad take breaks while walking around Tokyo, so that I could sit and read it.
Are you reading anything else?
A Star Wars book.
What do you plan to read next?
More Star Wars books.
