I dont even think I will be able to even try it. Her writing something else would just not be right.

She said that it was likely the "political fairytale" wouldn't be published because she just wrote for herself all the time anyway, and it may not see the light of day so that's not a surprise.

When the last Harry Potter book was published in... was it 2007? I saw an interview with JK Rowling who said her next book would be aimed at adults. It's hardly worth a news release by her agency...

I'm excited for it but I hope I can read it without thinking about Hogwarts.

I can't wait to read it. I thought I wouldn't be excited because it wasn't Harry Potter. But JK Rowling sure can write a story so its got to be good.

nice cover but I won't buy it just because it's her. I'll wait to see if it gets good reviews before I bother.

Love JK. Rowling but I have to laugh that it took TWO people to design that cover.

I didn't say anything's wrong with her. I just won't buy everything she writes in future off the back of Harry Potter.

Just 9 days until this is released! Very excited to read it. Jo is also making quite a few promotional appearances to talk about her new novel.
Television - September 26, BBC2: Writing for Grown-Ups (UK) - September 27, ABC1: J.K. Rowling: Life After Potter (Australia) - Unknown air dates: Nightline (ABC), World News (ABC), Good Morning America (ABC), The Daily Show with Jon Stewart (Comedy Central) Radio - September 27, BBC Radio 4 Interview with Mark Lawson She's also attending a couple of public events to discuss the novel and sign copies for all attendees. Tried to get tickets for the 2 England events but I was in America when they went on sale and by the time I was able to check the site they had already all sold out. ![]() |

The Casual Vacancy is now available to buy in bookstores worldwide.
![]() Reviews have been pretty mixed so far and a lot of emphasis on how different this novel is to Potter. GMA interview where she reveals how the Rihanna song Umbrella inspired her.

I'm reading this atm, saw her interview on BBC2 she is such an insightful and inspirational woman.
So far the book is great, not surprised the daily mail lot have slated it though as it will be like holding a mirror to the 'not on my doorstep' brigade haha.
