MORE POTTER? THAT WILL DO FOR ME ;)

IT CAN'T COME SOON ENOUGH :)

 I’m a muggle with wannabe-wizardly tendencies so the countdown clock on JK Rowling’s website is driving me Weasley’s-car high.

Living only ten minutes from the Leavesden Studios, I’ve been excitedly counting down to Spring 2012 since the Studio Tours announcement was made, in March. I can’t wait.

Now I’ve been tantalised by Pottermore.

My guess is that this isn’t a prequel or sequel to the series. I’m with those who believe it may be an interactive site – possibly linked to the studio tours.

I read  – probably in The Guardian on-line – some one ask the question “Are the Potter books worth a second read?”

Do they really need to ask?

Sharing the books with my children, and at school, I have read every book aloud at least twice. Just for pleasure, I’ve read every book again, several times. I’ve made time to re-read them before every movie is released, in the UK.

When we were booking the flights for our holiday to America, we found the price was pounds cheaper if we travelled on Deathly Hollow Release Day. Is this significant? I think so.

I’ll only be fine if the cinema shows the movie at 8am. :( I’m looking for a London early release showing. If I can’t find one I may be found hunting around Times Square for a home-grown movie experience.
