Wow. I miss writing on this blog. So much has happened between this and the last entry. Scholastic issued a release date for Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (July 21, 2007). U.K. and U.S. cover art and book jacket summaries are out. (Watch the MSNBC video with American editor Arthur Levine.) The Harry Potter bloggers are doing a great job analyzing the meaning of "deathly hallows" and what clues the cover art and summaries reveal. So much…stuff!

If anyone is still checking this blog, I recommend visiting sites like Sword of Gryffindor, and listen to Travis Prinzi's wonderful podcast while you're there. Head-Christian-HP-blogger-in-charge John Granger has new books out, including Unlocking Harry Potter: Five Keys for the Serious Reader, which I can't wait to read.

I have lots of ideas and theories about Deathly Hallows. I heard a fantastic theory on the Leaky Cauldron podcast about Harry traveling back in time to Godric's Hollow that I love, and I'll develop it later. Also see Wikipedia's entry on Deathly Hallows.

Until I get my thing together over here (and I'm not alone!), browse the blogroll and check out the sites (and the sights!).
