Here for further reading/listening are several of the pages I've found
with lots of links of Harry Potter information, including reviews,
analysis and interviews:

General information nodes:

These pages (listed above) include the following interviews: Here's a
fifty minute interview of
Rowling you can hear from the National Public Radio program Diane Rehm
Show (plays with
RealAudio). It includes Rowling doing a reading:

I'm sure you'll find more, too, on those big link collections I've
listed above.

Also: The link above to the Unofficial Harry Potter Fan Club includes
links to a lot of fan
sites. Here's another link cluster with a lot of fan sites:

Here's one of my favorite analytic articles (with a good rebuttal to
those who reject HP
because it "embraces the occult," i.e., Christian Conservatives):

And some other rather analytical articles, collected by the University
of Wisconsin:

Here's a site called The Harry Potter Lexicon, which gathers information
about the HP world.  I point it out because I think the timeline can be
particularly useful.

There. That should be enough to keep you all out of trouble for awhile.
