Raven by Allison Van Diepen

If you enjoyed Twilight than Raven is a book for you!

Part of a break dancing crew in New York City, Nicole and Zin, are like magnet and metal. So when Nicole lands a waitressing job at the club Evermore where Zin works and the crew dances and she fully expects her friendship with Zin to move to the next level.

Her home life is complicated, she is almost finished with high school and her grades could get her into any school she applies to, but her brother has bled their parents dry with his meth addiction. Zin is the one good thing in Nicole’s life, but there is some part of his life that Zin is reluctant to share. All that changes when Nicole is attacked on her way home from work. All of a sudden she is drawn into Zin’s dark and dangerous secret. A secret that will challenge their relationship, but if Nicole can overcome her fear she might just be able to save him.

J K Rowlings newest book!

Release date for "The Tales of Beadle the Bard" is December 4th, so make sure you have a copy on hold!

Our muggle fairy tales like "Cinderella" and "Sleeping Beauty" are like Harry Potter's wizard tales in "Tales of Beedle the Bard".  The first story is called the "The Wizard and the Hopping Pot".  A cauldron follows a young wizard around and around, clanging loudly, until he makes potions to help the people in the village.

Read the new Harry Potter book!  It is very enjoyable.

Written by Ozzie


The Tales of Beedle the Bard, a Wizarding classic, first came to Muggle readers’ attention in the book known as Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Now, thanks to Hermione Granger’s new translation from the ancient runes, we present this stunning edition with an introduction, notes, and illustrations by J. K. Rowling, and extensive commentary by Albus Dumbledore. Never before have Muggles been privy to these richly imaginative tales: “The Wizard and the Hopping Pot,” “The Fountain of Fair Fortune,” “The Warlock’s Hairy Heart,” “Babbitty Rabbitty and Her Cackling Stump,” and of course, “The Tale of the Three Brothers.” But not only are they the equal of fairy tales we now know and love, reading them gives new insight into the world of Harry Potter.

Take a peek at the stunning copy J K Rowling has had made!
