I was listening to the book in the car yesterday on the way to work and got to the part where Harry is off for Christmas at the Weasleys. During that chapter Lupin asked Harry how old the potions book was, and when he looks later it was fifty years old (a book from back in Tom Riddles time in school). Does this mean Snape is not the original owner, but maybe the second person to benefit from it (Harry being the third). Could there be two types of writing in the book, that maybe Harry did not notice? Does the age mater?

Don't worry about it, Keelboat! I actually did a half-hearted search, but when I didn't see anything I just started a new one. I'd forgotten all about the Release Day thread, so my bad. We've had lots of HP threads, and will have lots more. (Both here and at other sites). Consider this one the non- tagged one, and the other one for those who read slowly.
Good point about the book- his mother would have been from Voldie's era, so perhaps he inherited her book, but remember the comment about the girlish writing? Hmmmm....
