A Summer at Hogwarts (Part 2)


For those of you who read my last Harry Potter post, you'll know I'm trying to do a summer reading of the series.

The biggest concern that people voiced was that a month was to short to read the entire series. I agree, a month probably would be to short and cause way to much stress to read all 7 books. So here's what I've come up with:

Starting June 1st all people interested in participating are encouraged to pick up the nearest copy of Harry Potter and the Sorcerers (Philosopher) Stone. I'll post weekly (and sometimes more frequent) discussion posts as well as get to know the other readers activities. I know that many of the people interested have already read through the Harry Potter series, but one of the things I love about it is how I find new things each time I read them.

I've cross posted this over at the bookish community on livejournal as well as mentioned it to a few friends.

For those of you interested in my inspiration, and far more elegant set up you can find my original post here.

I hope some of you are interested in reading with me, and even if you're not feel free to join in the discussions as they happen, so long as you know what's going on.

One last thing, if you want to read the series for the first time let me know if you want me to institute a no spoliers (within reason) policy.
