Nothing But Reading Challenges discussion

Surprising (or not) news, there is another book set in the Potterverse on its way.

It tells the story of Harry's youngest son, and it was supposed to be a two episodes play only. With the option to attend the two on a row, or in different days.

For those who can't go to London, at least there is a chance to know all about it



Between the movie based on Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them and the Cursed Child, this year is going to be a great year to be a Potter Fan.

Agree with me? Disagree? Tell us all about it!

It will be an amazing year! I can't wait for them both!

***SO EXCITED***

I'm super excited about the movie!

The book I'm a little apprehensive about. I quite liked that JKR went forward in time at the end of the HP series as it gave it finality. This really opens that door again ....

Having said all that I read everything JKR. She is my favourite writer so I will of course buy it and probably love it ;)

Excited doesn't even begin to cover it.
Can't wait to read this new book. I also can't wait to see Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find them.

I was a little apprehensive about the book at first, too. I can also see how there could be a new story with how it ended. So I'm definitely intrigued. I didn't think it would be turned into a book though. Because at first it seemed like it would only be a theater play, and then I was jealous of everyone who would have the pleasure to see that.

Here's hoping they record the play and then screen it in cinemas
;)

Yes. It's proved to happen before with musicals etc. And everyone knows that anything Harry Potter would be able to sell, so it wouldn't be for nothing :)

Yep.

I would buy it.

The worse part of this is that my tickets for the play aren't until November so I will have to WAIT to read this :(


They tend to only to the record thing in certain theatres in London that have it set up - from experience with theatre and the live events screenings in cinemas, I highly doubt this will happen, sorry.

First of all: AHHHHH

Second of all: OH MY GOD THIS IS HAPPENING

And now I will continue talking in a calmer manner...

When I first heard about this, I didn't believe it. It seemed way too good to be true, but as it turns out: it's real. I'm super excited for the series to continue and to see what Rowling has in store for us next, but part of me has come to rest with the end of the story. Of course I know this is going to be great, but there's always my worry that it won't live up to expectations. But anyways, don't listen to me (I try not to most of the time either).

All in all, I'm not sure I'll be able to make it till July when this comes out, but I'm sure when it does it'll be amazing.

I may check it out. It's more of a screen play/script from what I understand, not an actual novel, which I'm not as crazy about.

I was excited when I saw there was another book coming out, but I didn't realize it was in script format. :(

Yes it's a play, not a book. And it isn't written by JKR so I don't think I will read it. It might be great but I am worried I will be too disappointed!
