I finished this book a few minutes ago and I really enjoyed it. It is a small book, but hilarious and it was such a joy reading it... The annotations made by Harry, Ron and Hermoine made the book even better and I wished I hadn't already finished it :-(

I will read "Quidditch Through the Ages" and as soon as I'm done I will send them both off to chich...

It only took me about half an hour to read this... What a disapointment to get it over with so fast, I wish the book had been much thicker:) This was a fun little book to read and as oisec said, the hand-written anotations by Harry, Ron & Hermione made it even better! I also liked the foreword by Dumbledore and his words of advice to Muggle purchasers:)

What fun! I can't wait to read "Quidditch Through the Ages"! Thanks for sharing Smurphie!

Journal Entry 12 by loom91 from Kolkata, West Bengal India on Friday, September 15, 2006
A good book, though not as good as its twin Quidditch Through the Ages. PMing alkaline-kiwi for address.

Journal Entry 13 by loom91 from Kolkata, West Bengal India on Monday, October 23, 2006
Mailed off today. Sorry for the delay.

Journal Entry 14 by alkaline-kiwi from Auckland, Auckland Province New Zealand on Monday, November 6, 2006
Received in the mail today along with 'Quidditch Through The Ages'.

Looks like a fun book (and the notes from Harry, Ron and Hermione that I saw while flicking through it made me laugh) so will read it soon.

Journal Entry 15 by alkaline-kiwi from Auckland, Auckland Province New Zealand on Thursday, November 16, 2006
Lent these two books to one of my tutors at course who returned it back to me today.

I have to agree with the other readers - over much too quickly.

I really enjoyed this book. It was well written and gave me a few chuckles. The notes through the book were quite fun too.

Wish I could see a pic of the Antipodean Opaleye - the New Zealand dragon.

Will finish reading the other book and post them both off soon.

Mailed off to azuki so they should reach her soon. Sorry for the delay in continuing the ring on.

Journal Entry 17 by wingAzukiwing from Miami, Florida USA on Monday, January 15, 2007
Received on Saturday. I took a sneak preview and am loving it already. The footnotes are so funny. This is the first book that is funny from the title page on! I think I am going to savour this a few pages at a time as I hate to have it over too soon!
And note to self: remember to send envelops on as well!!

Journal Entry 18 by wingAzukiwing from Miami, Florida USA on Thursday, February 1, 2007
This is definitely the smallest textbook I've seen. You wdon't need a levitation spell to tote it around.
Mmm... I would love a snidget and a puffskein as pet (perfect for when I have a cold!) Also, I wish Harry has scribbled more in his textbook.
I have yokaye's address already and this book will be on its way shortly.

Journal Entry 19 by yokaye on Sunday, February 11, 2007
Arrived yesterday but I just had to read through it a bit...can't wait to sit down and really enjoy it! Although I'm sure that I will be saying that it's over way too soon, as so many have before me. :)

Journal Entry 20 by yokaye on Wednesday, April 11, 2007
What a great little book! I'm sorry to have kept them so long; vacations and forgetfulness - I've just pm'd emmagoldmanzine so I'll have them on their way soon.

Loved these little tidbits of the wizarding world...a perfect companion to the series.

Journal Entry 21 by emmagoldmanzine from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania USA on Tuesday, May 1, 2007
The books have arrived. I'm finishing up one bookring book, have another to read and then will get to these (hopefully by the end of next week). I'm looking forward to reading them. Thanks Smurphie.

Journal Entry 22 by emmagoldmanzine from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania USA on Tuesday, May 15, 2007
I finished this last night. I enjoyed it. I especially liked the comments from Harry and Ron- I wish there were more. I kept looking for them. They made me laugh.

This book is headed home either today or tomorrow.

Journal Entry 23 by smurphie from Banchory, Scotland United Kingdom on Saturday, May 19, 2007
