I don't think I could do it again....

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Book 7)Well hello ladies and gents... I wasn't going to post until tomorrow because I had been out and about all day. I didn't have much time to do my usual sweep of the interwebs, but, at the last minute of course, I found an article summarizing the interview that Oprah did with JK Rowling a couple of days ago I think.

Anyway, the title is "I could write two more Harry Potter books, reveals Scots author JK Rowling." [FYI- It should be English author not Scots]

So at first when I read the title I was in disbelief that she would write more Potter books. Being the huge nerd that I am, I was freaken excited... but then I was like, "Whoa, whoa, whoa! More Potter books??? I don't think I can say goodbye again!" It was actually kind of hard reading the last book and knowing that there wasn't going to be another Potter book. I mean, I had spent quite a few years of my life waiting for the outcome of the series even though I knew it meant the end. I cried like a weenie when I finished DH.

Ya, ya I know! It sounds utterly ridiculous that one would have such a reaction to something like that. Don't judge me. :looks at you with squinty eyes:

Have you all ever had the same reaction to something like this? Or if you're a Potter head like I am, what do you think of there even being a possibility of another book?

PS. She never actually says she'll write another one, she just says she could.

PPS. Just for kicks here's the new HP trailer for those of you who have yet to see it. It's freaken AWESOME!



PPPS. Be sure to come back on Monday to read my post on Intimate Partner Abuse (IPA). Ya, I'm going there.

I heard about this yesterday and I wasn't all that excited about it. I do love HP & all but I don't know that continuing on after an ending is the best choice here.

I haven't read the books but I agree with you on the whole having to say goodbye 2x. Is this going to be an American soap opera??

It's kind of like the Saw movies...when are they going to end? The only reason I watched the last one was to see the ending & it never happened. Now there's a Saw 3D?!!!

I'm sorry but I like my stories to have an ending...that's all there is to it.
