Default And... what about Harry Potter

My wife and I are fans of Harry Potter. I bought the last book yesterday, and I can't wait to read it.

Sure, Rowling is not a candidate for the Nobel, but this book has something...

I often read "serious" literature, but sometimes I like to be like a child, so I read books only because the story or the fantasy trap me.

Anyone else?

Red face Harry Potter Book Google Translation

I read today that Google will not allow Google translations for the new Harry Potter book.

It was fun, because I couldn´t imagine how a Google translation of Harry Potter will be understandable...

Anyway you will not have any problem to read in English.

I love Harry Potter too! I love going back to my childhood years when I used to have a lot more rapid and fertile imagination regarding this type of things and HP makes me go back for sure.
As you said Julio, she may not get a Nobel prize but for sure she will remain an all-time-loved writer and not only by children and their parents, that's for sure.

Sorry: I'm in the chapter No. 24th, so I don't know yet. But, if you want to know, I could send you an e-mail... Because many of the fans don't want to know the end of the story yet...

Can you believe I wanted to get the book for my sister's birthday and I have a 10 day wait? Amazing, I've never heard that happening with a book, especially one that is worth over 30 USD!
Of course, we are waiting now....
