first chapter preview

Re: first chapter preview
I find that pretty hard to swallow as legit. Just doesn’t seem like Rowling’s work and it doesn’t match the pacing of the first four books. Besides, the rest of the site seems a little, um, questionable.

i fear for our children’s future.
Re: first chapter preview
If that’s the first chapter of the book, I’ll return it.
There is no way that book would be expected to sell to its target audience with something like Hagrid’s comments about Hermione ‘becoming a woman’. What a total crock.
Re: first chapter preview
are you people daft? anyway, i think you should post your outrage in their forums. POSTHASTE!
Re: first chapter preview
Riiight. he’s starting year six.. in book five. yup.. uh huh.. This looks like that chinese or whatever knockoff that came out last year. Here’s what the editor put on amazon’s page:
“The hottest day of the summer so far was drawing to a close and a drowsy silence lay over the large, square houses of Privet Drive…. The only person left outside was a teenage boy who was lying flat on his back in a flowerbed outside number four.”
Notice the “….”, indicating a break in the narritive. In the version on the web site, it just continues there. Ah well, whatever.

Enjoy? Are you stoned? That was the biggest load of
complete bollocks I have ever read. I could have done
better, and I’m a 15-year old with an education I can’t
exactly shout praises about from the rooftop. Hell, if I
was that stupid, I’d probably try and
kill myself, and actually fail.
“Flexible”, my arse.
If anyone actually believes that that is J.K.
Rowling’s writing, I advise them to stop taking the funny
pills from the little pink rabbit in the postbox.
Therapy exists for a reason.

if u can seriously think that piece of absolute shi* is harry potter u are absolutely mad and should be shot in the fucki* head or u r probably drunk.dont even try to make something else like that.that was carp.CRAP!!!!!!!!thank u
i was agreeing with you, you moron. i’m just not rude about it, and i don’t have to use profanity to prove my point. it’s obviously not the real story, and i found it funny that they were trying to say it was. you need to learn how to read the things people say, and not automatically jump down peoples throats.

I thought it was a joke too (as in “Pointless waste of
time”) but I looked at the forums and started getting
frightened. Maybe the guy who posted is an absolute
genius to make it seem like he believed it, because I
believe him. Maybe I was in denial.
I just felt like the person who posted the link at first was
bragging a little about it, saying “look, you idiots, here’s
something I know and you don’t and I just told you so
you’d better really admire me for it too”
Please, let it be a joke!
