Harry Potter Film Wizardry

It was my birthday last Sunday and whilst I mostly got money I did get one awesome book from my bff. It's all about the Harry Potter movies and it has so much cool stuff in it including the letter Harry got before he started Hogwarts, the Marauder's Map and the invitation to the Yule Ball. I love it soooooo much.





I was doing so well until the S&S GG newsletter arrived and I went and downloaded four more books. But it's definitely one of my better weeks this year - I really am trying to limit my book buying.

That's all for now.

  2. I'm going to have to look into Divergent! Many people seem to be getting it this week!

    Do all Kindle books have the cover? Cause the few that I've gotten, haven't had it...just wondering. I'm still trying to figure everything out on it!

    My IMM goes up tomorrow, so be sure to stop by!

  3. Happy [belated] Birthday!! I LOVE that Harry Potter book! I got it a couple of months ago after lusting over it for AGES. The art and design is just amazing. The Marauders Map and Harry's acceptance letter were my favourite pull outs. Apparently they're making another book similar to this, releasing in November but it's like, 500+ pages. I soo can't wait for it!

    Awesome IMM this week. I LOVE Divergent! Happy reading :D
