J.K. Rowling has written about an adult Harry Potter in her latest post for her site, Pottermore--but it's not the full-length sequel that fans crave. What favorite character would you most like to read about again in a comeback novel? Vote or write in your pick! God I hate JK Rowling

Leslie is on page 8 of 290 of The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness

...page 8...and I can get through barely a few paragraphs without having to stop in shock and read aloud to housemate. I woke up thinking about it this morning. “There are too many things we do not wish to know about ourselves.”
― James Baldwin, The Fire Next Time. 240 pages to go...so far, WOW.

Saw this question in the Feedback Group: Q: "In light of recent events, it seems fitting to once again request an increased character limit for private notes and/or the ability to make our reviews and shelves private. Granting this request would appease some as deleting user content would no longer be necessary; if no one can see it, no one can be offended."

(My)A: "Would you like a pony with that, Princess?"

The story so far is very good, the narration so-so, and the music very annoying. It's not O&C which was brilliantly narrated (and no songs) and a delicious story, but I am already fond of the characters. I think it is great to be experiencing the world from the perspective of female characters. I look forward to what she will be doing with that.
