Uh, I thought Witherwings meant skipping the first five BOOKS (HBP is  
the sixth.)

Although I do skip several chapters now on my rereads.  God forgive  
me, but I just cannot stand Hagrid's Tale, Grawp, and Snape's Worst  
Memory.   So I understand skipping chapters that are too emotionally  
painful.
