Potioncat,

The book sounds more like a recent memoir or documentary about recent
events; I think the auhtor of the article used the term "novel" a bit
too loosely.  That being said, what is this book really about - other
people's experiences when encountering for the first, or successive
times - the Harry Potter world?  If so, I must say that I won't be
spending any money on it...I enjoyed buying the HP books and reading
them, but not adding funds to anyone trying to tag along on the tails
of JKR's success.  If these books were worthy in and of themselves
and had something to add to the true HP story, maybe...but they
don't.  The only exception for me was the Wizarding World Press
guides...I did like them.

Thanks for letting us all know about this book and providing links so
we can check it out and see if we want to buy it before spending the
money.
