The Harry Potter business (and parts of the fandom) seem to be in some decline:
- I was not able to get an audio version of PS read by Stephen Frey (which I wanted to have as a gift pr christmas) via amazon.
- I've almost finished reading CoS (in the German version) to my daughter, and up to now she has not requested that the next book I should read to her should be PoA.
- HP-related news these days is about persons acting in the films, Snape's birthday, Disney, whatever - but not about the books and their reception and interpretation.
- And now HPANA is in trouble: see here and here.
The day to close this public and HP-related part of this blog/LJ seems to be rapidly approaching.
