Hello world!

by Elisa

It is a sort of tradition with me to begin a new blog with a post titled “Hello World,” so here it is. Welcome to The Book Stacks! I hope that we can have fun discussing the world of books together.

hp5.jpgHave you heard that the trailer for the film of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix is coming soon to theaters? That’s right. It will be shown before the film Happy Feet starting 17 November 2006. Of course, the film itself isn’t due until 13 July 2007. I maintain that they *have* to show the part with the Swamp and the Weasley twins.
Here’s hoping that they won’t let me down.

    I can’t wait for this film. I’ve enjoyed the books and the movies equally well. Hopefully they won’t cut this one as much as they did Goblet of Fire.

    Hello back! I can’t wait to see the trailer. Book 5 is my favorite so far, so I’m really looking forward to the movie.

    Well, it is obvious to me that we can have a lively discussion on the subject next July. :)
