PotterMore? - Page 2

I'm rather disappointed it wasn't something more, but I bet this will be a wonderful site for kids, and inspire them to keep reading, not just watch the movies, etc.

I heard this somehow allows you to write your own story and have the chance to get your ideas officially into the Harry Potter world. That's pretty awesome. What a nod to the mighty HP fanfic world.

Wait, so this means Kevy could conceivably write scenes for ~~Emma~~ Hermione? This is not going to end well.

If the HP fic world is anything like other fic worlds Kevy's won't be the worst thing out there. And by worst I don't mean writing ability.

Even I steer clear of fanfic.

Grrrrr. So it looks like the Potter books will be on the Google books platform. Which works with all ereaders BUT the Kindle. And of course I have a Kindle. Grrrrr.

Amazon is disagreeing with that story going around:

Well I hope amazon is right. I don't feel like schlepping 600 page books around anymore.

FINALLY you can purchase the books as ebooks on all platforms. And you can get the whole set for a 10% discount. I had finally broken down and downloaded pdf's off the internet but you can't change the font and I'm blind as a bat.

I'm not a fan of how these are being sold only on the Pottermore site. If you want to sell me something make it easier not more cumbersome.

Plus since I have no real interest in getting them electronically at the moment anyway I'll be happy to give this one a pass for now.
