My only concern with the 'Pottermore' was that it meant more Potter (as in books - which I don't even think I could read because the series ended just as magically as it began). I can't even watch the movies (which I've heard are very well made) because the movies in my head are just what I want to see when I think of everything HP.Barbara Watsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06547166495514562286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5330251478298712601.post-18952984546248910492011-06-22T16:38:07.212-04:002011-06-22T16:38:07.212-04:00Wow!
