Harry Potter VI = Book # 10, Fun Fact 8

Finally catching up with the rest of the world (isn't that what sabbaticals are for?), I just finished Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (the sixth of seven volumes), and it was definitely one of my favorites in the series so far, despite the incredibly sad ending. As if it weren't enough to have to battle the evil Voldemort, how will Harry go on, finally left to himself, with no parental figures left to help him, just his peers for support? Are these really kids books anymore? In any case, J.K. Rowling has certainly sets everything up for a huge finale in Book 7, and I plan to jump right in.

Fun fact: J.K. Rowling has been spotted in Scotland cafes working on an adventure / mystery novel, presumably aimed at adults.

Hmm it looks like your website ate my first comment (it was super long) so I guess I'll just sum it up what I wrote and say, I'm thoroughly enjoying your blog.
I as well am an aspiring blog writer but I'm still new to everything. Do you have any recommendations for newbie blog writers? I'd certainly appreciate it.
