Such encyclopedias usually aren't written by the author of the primary material, at least not in my experience.

Good point. Perhaps she is doing it so no one else will.

Ooh! And let's rename the Board! We will, from this point on, refer to ourselves as "Harry LoTters".



Okay, so I confess: my boss' wife told me she had purchased the new Harry Potter book. While I was in their house this morning, I spied it sitting on the countertop and was thisclose to picking it up and leafing through it!

Plus, LSPoorEeyorick told me I would really enjoy it & I totally trust her opinion! I think I might just have to give it a chance (beginning with book 1, of course. Nobody will post on my book 1 spoilers thread. )

Sorting Hat: Hmm, difficult. VERY difficult. Plenty of courage, I see. Not a bad mind, either. There's talent, oh yes. And a thirst to prove yourself. But where to put you?
Kevin: Not Homoclaw. Not Homoclaw.

With all of the beards being shaved lately, I am not sure this name would still be appropriate.

Ummm, it'd take a lot more than the loss of a few chin hairs to invalidate my hirsute status.

She did write a couple of other books a few years ago to benefit Comic Relief. Quidditch through the Ages and Fantastic Beasts & Where To Find Them. They're short 40-50 page books. They were published in 2001.

I forgot about those. I think we have two of them (I think there were three).

ETA: I guess there were only the two.

We picked up the last book at the grocery store - now to see who reads it first
