'19 Kids & Counting' Finale: One Duggar Moving Away
'Don't Be Tardy': Kim Wants To Have More Kids
A glimmer of hope for (extremely patient) Harry Potter fans
Filed under: Rumors, That's Entertainment
Could there have been a light left on over at Hogwarts?! J.K. Rowling, author of the Harry Potter series, has hinted she might be considering adding an 8th book to the popular line-up. I
In an interview with Time magazine (who gave Rowling a #3 ranking on their Person Of The Year list) the author said: "There have been times since finishing, weak moments, when I've said 'Yeah, all right' to the eighth novel."
But before you get your Amazon pre-order hopes up, Rowling quickly squelches the flames adding, "If - and it's a big if - I ever write an eighth book, I doubt that Harry would be the central character. I feel I've already told his story. But these are big ifs. Let's give it ten years."
TEN YEARS?! I'll be REALLY old and gray by then!
If you can't wait that long, I have good news for you. Remember that limited edition Rowling book that sold to an unnamed buyer for $4 million? We now know who the buyer was: Amazon.com. And while the online book store isn't allowed to sell copies of The Tales of Beedle the Bard, they are allowed to review the stories it contains and have set up a discussion board where muggles can ask questions and discuss the second-hand-yet-still-magical addition to the Pottermania.

Amanda said...I've never read any of the potter books, but, I've seen all the movies and I'm in love!! after watching the order of the phoenix I'm convinced there HAS to be another movie coming out!!!!! does anyone know if there is going to be another movie?? My daughters are not reading yet but I'm planning on buying all the potter books over time and reading them with my kids.

rachel said...Yes, the current plan is for there to be 7 movies based off of the 7 books.
And you should definitely buy and read the books, they are really incredible- better than the movies. But also more intense, you should probably read them before your dear daughter so you are better able to gauge when she is ready for them.

Amanda said...I totally agree with you. I hope she will find them interesting in 7 or 8 more years!
