The day before Yesterday I got the news from my colleague, a girl little younger than me that the 8th book of Harry Potter has been published. However, different from the previous 7 books, it’s a play novel written by J.K Rowling and an scriptwriter. The story is about Harry Potter and his three children after 19 years. Actually, I’m thoroughly a fan of Harry Potter series from my student age. They accompanied me going through several years and brought me the happiness and energy. Although I’m an adult now, the memory of the time reading them also can remind me the feeling of the young time. I’m wondering whether I should buy the new book to read. As for my experiences, the English of Harry Potter novels are always a little ancient and maybe too British.
