JK Rowling to write another YA book?! WOOOHOOO! :D
ReplyDeleteNothing will compare to Harry, but hey, she's a great writer, so if she invents another imaginative fictional world, then I don't see why it shouldn't be a great book.
ReplyDeleteI love the vampire panels!!!! Also, so excited for JK Rowling. Love her stuff even if it's for the littlies.
ReplyDeleteI heard about the YA novel coming from Rowling. I am really curious about what she will be doing.
