Now that it’s all over in the Harry Potter saga, we’d like to know what you think? Were you satisfied with the ending?
Given the usual state of Potter-madness in these parts, we’re pretty much “neither here nor there”- we loved Deathly Hallows, but still can’t believe that there won’t be another book to look forward to. We’re just glad the films haven’t all been made yet.
Want to talk about how you feel about the End? Visit our Deathly Hallows forum at The Three Broomsticks- and kick back with a butterbeer or two.

Stephen King has written a lovely article in which he bids Harry Potter goodbye- and shares with us how he feels about the series coming to an end.
From the article:
My advice to families containing Harry Potter readers: Stock up on the Kleenex. You’re gonna need it. It’s all made worse by one unavoidable fact: It’s not just Harry. It’s time to say goodbye to the whole cast, from Moaning Myrtle to Scabbers the rat (a.k.a. Wormtail). Which leads to an interesting question — will the final volume satisfy Harry’s longtime (and very devoted) readers?
We wonder the very same thing!

The New Zealand Herald recently published a list of little known Harry Potter Trivia, which includes the following gems:
- J. K. Rowling’s manuscript for Harry Potter was turned down a staggering 15 times by book publishers. Makes aspiring writers like us feel better!
- The Hogwarts motto, “Draco dormiens nunquam titillandus” means “never tickle a sleeping dragon”. Awww.
- Although we know that Harry has a scar on his forehead, it’s never specified in the books where it’s actually located. I didn’t realize this until now. Interesting.
- Daniel Radcliffe spent approximately 42 hours underwater during the course of filming The Goblet of Fire. Wow, that’s a LOT of water.
- Steven Spielberg reportedly wanted Haley Joel Osment (”I see dead people”) for the part of Harry. Thank heavens for Dan Radcliffe!
