C'mon Potter bashers, let us see you resist this paragraph
Harry Potter is more than the sum of its parts. Some of the book is so moving that three of the four listners were reduced to tears.

If that woman doesn’t get a Nobel prize when book seven is finished, then there is no justice in the world.(more here)
Thanks for the link. I somehow missed that. I was busy studying and roaming around the "much-adored" author's website trying to crack the WOMBAT.
