| | British Deathly Hallows paperback released this week, Bloomsbury update site
The British edition of Deathly Hallows in paperback will be released this Thursday. It can be pre-ordered here at Amazon for £5.39. There is still no word on a release date for the U.S. paperback edition.
To coincide with this Bloomsbury, the publishers, have updated their website. They have now unlocked the #7 compartment on the Hogwarts Express on their Swot up on Potter page. |

I do think that the hard covered books are a much better choice for an avid Harry Potter fan. But the paperbacks are still very nice |

It is very nice to collect all the covers, paperback or hardback, but aside from the earlier books, the paperback first editions wont become collectibles. I go into a used bookstore and see literally hundreds the same paperback edition. But, that said, the paperback versions are easier to tote around.

With the incredible bargain Amazon gave us last week with the de-luxe edition, I'm not that eager to get the papaeback edition anymore. Might be interesting, though...

Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.

Anyways, what can you do in the 7th compartment? You can read stuff about the Harry Potter world.
