Waiting on Wednesday: Harry Potter and the Cursed Child - J.K. Rowling, Jack Thorne, John Tiffany
Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Breaking The Spine that spotlights upcoming releases that we're eagerly anticipating.
As I've mentioned before, I'm in the midst of re-reading all the Harry Potter books, so now I'm wondering, who else is super excited for Harry Potter's birthday this year?? I'm very much looking forward to getting my copy of The Cursed Child and there's LESS THAN TWO WEEKS TO GO before release date!!! Dang it I'm tempted to fly to London just to see the play.
Even so, I'm still so nervous and scared of this one. It could be so, so, so, so good, or so wrong. The fact that it is a script? The fact that it's not written entirely by JKR? I just want to love this so much!
Expected publication: July 31st 2016 |
Harry Potter and the Cursed Child
(Harry Potter)
by J.K. Rowling, Jack Thorne, John Tiffany
From Goodreads:
Based on an original new story by J.K. Rowling, Jack Thorne and John Tiffany, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child, a new play by Jack Thorne, is the first official Harry Potter story to be presented on stage. It will receive its world premiere in London’s West End on 30th July 2016
It was always difficult being Harry Potter and it isn’t much easier now that he is an overworked employee of the Ministry of Magic, a husband, and father of three school-age children.
While Harry grapples with a past that refuses to stay where it belongs, his youngest son Albus must struggle with the weight of a family legacy he never wanted. As past and present fuse ominously, both father and son learn the uncomfortable truth: sometimes darkness comes from unexpected places.
I'm so scared, and so excited, for this book. I can't even.. I hope you enjoy it though. Thanks for sharing, and happy Wednesday. :)
