29 Mar 07 - 10:48 AM (#2010683) Subject: RE: BS: New Harry Potter cover revealed From: Wesley S Agreed about the covers. They are nicer. I also heard that the first book had several words and phrases that were different in the British editions than in the American ones. In essence that they "Americanized" our copies so the would be easier to understand here in the states. I wonder if that's still going on. I'd prefer to read them in the original versions if possible. |

Both the Childrens and Adult cover versions ordered:-) Didn't fancy splashing out on the special as well! I guess I will get 2 Wizardologies - Just need to decide who would like one for Christmas now... :D |

Ther will be figts if we only order one. The second wizardologies may well go into the raffle at Faldingworth Live LOL |
29 Mar 07 - 12:02 PM (#2010773) Subject: RE: BS: New Harry Potter cover revealed From: guitar I can't understand how Adults can get excisted over a book, Children yes but Adults! I have never read and saw a Harry Potter film or book, however that just what it is a book. |
29 Mar 07 - 12:11 PM (#2010780) Subject: RE: BS: New Harry Potter cover revealed From: Wesley S And that's the point. Children are getting excited over a BOOK. And what's wrong with that? Try reading one. |
29 Mar 07 - 12:15 PM (#2010785) Subject: RE: BS: New Harry Potter cover revealed From: Wesley S That should have said "Try reading a Harry Potter book". |

I have never read and saw a Harry Potter film or book, however that just what it is a book. Different folks, different strokes - it's a good thing we're not all the same. I, for one, want to find out what happens next. |

29 Mar 07 - 07:54 PM (#2011202) Subject: RE: BS: New Harry Potter cover revealed From: The Walrus If I decide to buy a copy, I'll wait until Asda or Tesco run it at a discount - The books are resonable (in a one dimensional way)*, but no way will I bother to rush about after one. W * OK, I've read worse. |
30 Mar 07 - 03:51 AM (#2011487) Subject: RE: BS: New Harry Potter cover revealed From: GUEST Have reserved one for me and one for my grandson. Can hardly wait until July 21! Just wish the grandson was closer so we could read it to each other the way we did the first couple. Lin in Kansas |
30 Mar 07 - 04:04 AM (#2011496) Subject: RE: BS: New Harry Potter cover revealed From: Dave the Gnome It's only the covers that are different, Villan. There's no X rated scene in the Adult one or anything:-) Although from what I hear about Ron, Hermione and the Viagra spell... Dave |
