That's right! It is time to all have a biscuit and enjoy these 2 great (but chunky) Chapters!
Umbridge's first lesson left me utterly furious! XD Luckily it was followed up by a short but excellent scene!
We also discuss Seamus a lot! Very interesting how different the book version is to the movie! I also complain about him doing something that annoyed me in Chamber for no reason XD).
Thank you all so much for the continued support of this series, guys!! It means the world to me! I discuss the 'possibility' of maybe having to do single chapters here or there, but I am ALWAYS after feedback and your thoughts! I want to make sure we do what works best for everyone! :)
Enjoy~
Comments
Can't believe I missed the book club for these chapters! But it probably would have been a long waffle of a comment about Seamus ultimately just saying what you already said! Seamus is one of my favorite characters. I will bring up that we know a minimal amount about his home life, but we know that his dad is a muggle who didn't know about magic until after he married Seamus's mum. I personally headcanon that there's some conflict between his parents, and he's very close to his mother, so of course Harry calling her stupid would make him snap back and double down on agreeing with her. I work as a paraeducator in the US (basically assisting kids in the classroom who need more help or have specific accommodations for disabilities), and oh boy does Umbridge piss me off. And so does Snape. If I were in Snape's classroom and he treated a student like that in front of me, I would be reporting him, and when Dumbledore didn't do anything about it for his own reasons I would hopefully be brave enough to confront him myself, and he would just have to hope my pacifism was strong enough. Ron and Hermione bickering and Harry snapping at them makes so much sense to me. Ron and Hermione have both been known to argue with each other and with others in a good-natured, easily brushed aside way. Ron's family certainly has its arguments, but until recently they have never been too serious or at least not irreconcilable. Sometimes they're even fun arguments about Quidditch. For Harry growing up, any kind of argument was a source of danger. He may not fear the Dursleys much anymore, but that doesn't mean the effects of his childhood would vanish. We very rarely if ever see Harry have this kind of bickering argument with anyone. He is either having a civil discussion or a full-fledged fight. So being in the presence of this kind of in-between, bickering sniping that Ron and Hermione do could be genuinely stressful for him as well as just annoying, not that I think he's consciously making that connection of course. Probably a good thing I missed the book club after all, looking at the length of this comment lol. Anyway, great video as always Veggie!
Q
2025-08-11 20:24:25 +0000 UTCJust out of curiosity, how do you do your notes for the book club? I’m re-reading along with you and I just do them as I read. Just wondering if there’s a way to help make things easier for you 😊 I’ve also always wondered if it would be easier for you to maybe do 2 videos. One where you go over your notes that we respond to with the book club, and then the next video is your response to our book club comments. I know things get repeated a lot, and this could maybe cut down some time? Maybe? I don’t know! Just ideas! Feel free to hate them and totally disregard if they won’t work for you!
