The Summer of Harry Potter
Well, since school is out and there's not a whole lot to tell you about the library yet (oh, there will be, don't you worry!) I've decided that this will be my Summer of Harry Potter here at the library. Why? Because I said so! Ok, because book 7, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows will be published on July 21 which (at the last time I checked) is still 52 days, 16 hours, 16 minutes and 2 seconds away. Not that I'm counting or anything! Also, movie 5, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, is due out July 13 (sorry, no exact minutes and seconds...it's too much work to count that out, plus I shouldn't spend too much time looking for it.
At least now you know what the important dates for this summer are!
Oh, and the whole point of the Summer of Harry Potter is that I will be re-reading the first six books and reviewing them here. I know that whole game has been done before, but not here and not by me! Feel free to send me some comments with your thoughts on the books as I go. You can even read them with me if you want, but there is no guaranteed schedule as to when I'll finish them. I'm starting with Harry Potter and the Sorceror's Stone today at lunch. Did you know that in England the title is Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone? - Sorry, just a little bit of random information for you there!
Oh, and just so you don't think I'm leaving you hanging on a website to check out, here's:

This site has proven to take up countless hours I should have been doing homework when I was still at school. Well, that and spider solitaire....
