I love the way McCarthy writes. <br /><br />As for Much Points, I have to read my kid a book about Santa every year that makes me cry as I read aloud, and my husband always gives me this LOOK.

Then again, in Deathly Hallows I started crying when Dudley told Harry he wasn't a waste of space and pretty much never stopped. I'm a major sap.
