Harry Potter discussion

OK, now that majority voted on reading James Potter and the Hall of Elders' Crossing , we need a discussion leader for the group read. Any candidates? And then we will have a poll.

No one? Shall we choose one of the moderators?

I don't know that I'll read it. I don't like fan fiction or reading on the computer. I may skim over it a little, but I don't know that I'll read the whole thing. So I think I'm out.

Aaha, ok.

So, until now, I've got replies from :


Meghan- 431 comments
Savannah Morrow- 204 comments
Keegan- 52 comments
Shinedown Fan(Ariel)- 47 comments
Jen(Rev Jen)- 1 comment
Ruler Of Vampires- 1 comment
Lady Ellen
Teshara
Ira Rupina

I just post it here, 'cause i needed to keep track of the replies :P . (and well, give others a chance to take a look at the members who are willing to be discussion leaders)

I've read them both and I don't mind doing it. I just don't know much about how the group handles discussions.

I haven't read it yet, but I am really excited about doing it!

OK, as the poll shows, I guess the discussion leader for JP&the hall of elders' crossing is Meghan, and the discussion leader for JP&the curse of the gate keeper is Jen. (for the next group reads, I guess we will choose Savannah & Keegan)
Any comments?

Sounds good!

Savannah can go on the next one I'll wait and do the one after

Ok. Thanks!

you're welcome

:D

They're online so you should have access to them. I think.

Anyone with internet access can download the free James Potter ebooks.

To make it easier for everyone to find these wonderful stories...

Each novel is just under or over 400 pages. The author cannot sell it for money as it's Harry Potter fanfic so it's free to give away as an ebook. (That's also why you can't buy a printed version). Click on the GoodReads link for the books and you can download it as a free ebook right off Goodreads.

James Potter and the Hall of Elders' Crossing

James Potter and the Curse of the Gate Keeper

If you go to the author's website (where you can also download the first two books), there are also 3 short stories you can download (12 pages each): http://www.harrysfirstchristmas.com/

Harry's First Christmas, A Maurader's Christmas story
Merlin's Gift, A Founder's Christmas Story
Petra's Getaway, A Petra Morganstern Christmas Story

After you've read both JP novels, you might be interesting in Petra's own story, The Girl on the Dock A Dark Fairy Tale. You can buy that story from amazon.com or lulu.com.

The author is writing the third James Potter novel as we speak and is hoping for a Dec 2009 release where he will probably release a chapter a day (free, of course).

thanks!

Not sure what ya mean, but my fiance's name is Brian, so I am BriansGirl. :)

Are we perhaps in another group together too? (I reposted this here from the Witches, Were's and Vamps, Oh My! Group where I'd originally posted it.

I think what Uma was saying is that instead of being BriansGirl you are BrainsGirl....a play on your username. Calling you smart ect.

oh, I get it now.... haha

Didn't catch the spelling. lol

ummmm... so, in Harry's First Christmas, is Harry a baby, and his dad is still alive, so Harry doesn't have a scar?

Yes.

That will be funny to picture. I will keep seeing James with the scar, probably, like I do with the James Potter books.

Have people been reading The Curse of the Gate Keeper? It looks like Jen was selected as the discussion leader, but we don't have any topics or it. I don't think Novin can get into her goodreads account and she's the one running the James Potter section. Anyone interested in discussing?

And what comes after The Gate Keeper?

I did do some topic posts on it but no one really participated in it. The new one should be up at www.jamespotterseries.com

I get the feeling that this group as a whole is dying :(.

I'll admit that I'm using Goodreads less as a whole. I add friends but I don't update my books as much as I used to. Between this and Facebook, I tend to devote more time to FB. I'm on level 39 of School of Wizardry. ;o)

I'm just about ready to get rid of FB though.

I still use GR a lot... Especially since I just bought the "Official App" on my iPod touch. But I do get on http://www.stardoll.com

It is actually pretty amusing because you can have friends and chat and buy stuff and make clubs. Basically like Goodreads only you have your own avatar that you dress up and make a room. Feel free to join!

Oh, and if you're looking me up, I'm ShaeWeasley and CrazyPickleGirl.

What's up everyone Join the Erudite Readers group if you haven't already its an awesome group. If you join please say that I invited you.
