I’ve been a little busy during the last couple of days, writing and reading. Unfortunately I haven’t been hiding with Harry Potter since I don’t have my copy yet. I’m busy staying away from any spoilers, or intended to, but Mr. Munro who has never read a Harry Potter book in his life came down to the bedroom.
“I know what happens in Harry Potter,” he said.
“How do you know?”
“I googled it,” he said. “I know who dies.”
Color me amazed. For a man who has never read one of the books and professes himself as indifferent, he was still curious enough to want to know what happens. That’s great marketing.
And then, disaster. My curiosity kicked in. “Who dies?”
The moment Mr. Munro had been waiting for. The wretched man told me!
In punishment, his mission today is to purchase me a copy. Honestly, what am I going to do with this man?

Lol, that could be me. I read the first and skimmed the second, then gave up on Harry and the other angsty teenagers. But I googled who dieda few hours after the book was out.

I didn’t exactly lie, BUT I stretched the truth a little! Shelley will still have to read the book to find out what JKR wrote!

LOL Poor Shelley! I’m sure it will be just as enjoyable for you to read it. And stretching the truth about what happened is something my husband would do.
Silly men!
