I did not read any of the Harry Potter books, but my daughter did, and also saw all the movies.
I think I will read this one, whatever it is, and whenever it comes out, just out of curiosity.
What about you? Let’s talk about it really soon.
Hmm.. i do wanna see what she has coming next. Im a potter fan, so i do hope she;ll be writing fantasy. But i somehow doubt that.
