The first boy who ever became my boyfriend — who I ever fell in love with — actually sang a song that he wrote for me in front of his parents and a bunch of people at an Irish pub when we were thirteen. That was how he asked me out. And that boy won a Tony for Spring Awakening a few years ago. That was magical.

Turns out Bloomsbury’s secret weapon from JK Rowling to boost sales is not new Harry Potter books like we speculated it would be.

“Bloomsbury formally announced yesterday’s mysterious Hogwarts Library Box Set, and it is indeed The Tales of Beedle the Bard, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, and Quidditch Through the Ages all in one.” -Hypable

 Pretty, but definitely not as exciting.

an 18 minute cartoon about One Direction. This is legit the most ridiculous/amazing/worst use of time EVER.

Have you thought, “I’d really like to get into One Direction, but I’d prefer them as a fan-made 18 minute cartoon?”  Well here you go.

JK IS WRITING THREE MORE HP BOOKS

longestjourneytogether:

Bloomsbury, the publisher of the “Harry Potter” series by author JK Rowling, also said it was counting on a new Rowling three-book box set tied into the Potter series, and a non-fiction account of spies in World War II to support sales in the coming year.

Wait…WHAT?! This is vague and kinda confusing, but who cares! More insight into the Potter universe

Hm… bets on whether this is the encyclopedia she’s apparently been working on, or something completely new?
