I can't believe my husband got me all four of the illustrated Harry Potter books. They are stunningly gorgeous. How did I just learn about these a month ago??

Here is my bookish Prime haul.
I ended up buying the Boxcar set as a Christmas gift to my kids and the Word Cloud set for myself for my birthday.
The HP books are also a Christmas gift for my kids. I struggled over whether to get them to full set of the regular books or this three pack of the illustrated editions.
I got KU for free for 3 months and Audible for $4.95 for 3 months so I figured I‘d give them a shot!
I came home the other day and found this standing and ready to be read! The first three #HarryPotter books in deluxe illustrated form. I guess I have to read them now 😆. Well, I planned on getting to them this year but got way-laid. So I guess I have no choice now!
I'm guessing the others are in the works?
Here‘s a bit of my bookish Christmas gifts. I had to show you the awesome coasters my Mom gave us. 😊
I got a box in the mail and it was this!!!!! Its a birthday gift from my bestfriend in Florida. OMG they are so pretty. I cant wait to read them and see all of the pictures.🤩🤩🤩🤩😘😘😘🎉🎉💜💜💜
Look what's only half price!!

M‘s Birthday #harrypotter themed gift bag full of goodies! I came up with this idea after we had to cancel our trip to Universal and HP Wizarding World due to #hurricaneirma in September. I have been waiting not so patiently for weeks to give it to her!
She‘s already sitting on her new Hokki stool (thank you, grandparents!) reading the illustrated Chamber of Secrets, in her “I have a new book, don‘t disturb me” zone. Just like me. 😆

When Booktopia offers Afterpay...

Bonus: all the authors are female!
I wouldn't say Dolores Umbridge is my #favoritevillain, but she is certainly the one that scares me the most, because she exemplifies what Hannah Arendt famously termed "the banality of evil." #riotgrams #riotgram4
Book challenge day 25 - House Pride
Here is a nice bit of Gryffindor love.
What is your favorite kind of fan merch? I've got to say I love bookish candles, i'm also developing a love for fan based note books, because I use them all the time... I haven't seen a ton of shops, but I could probably go for some fan-based food. Mostly to Accompany very foodie books like Heartless...

I saw these fully illustrated special edition Harry Potter books at the book store the other day and they were amazing and breathe taking. 📚😱📖😊
Book challenge day 16 "book and wand"
How awesome would it be to get to go to Ollivanders and have a wand choose you? I love the idea of different type of magic being drawn to different types of people... also Diagon Alley in general would be a hoot to see.
If you could visit one shop in Diagon Alley which would you choose?

Book challenge day 7 is "Favorite Harry Potter Professor"
Anyway I've always like professor Minerva McGonagall. She's sharp, intelligent, no nonsense, but she's also very caring and always looking out for her students.
And it doesn't hurt that she can turn into a cat...
I almost hate to admit it but I think I must be one of only a handful of YA Fantasy book lovers that don't actually own any Harry Potter books. 😅
I've read them all and I enjoy the movies but in my tiny living space I've learned to make do with the gorgeous and plentiful editions available at my local library. Including these two illustrated numbers.
Merch and swag on the other hand... well it seems I've made space for a bit of it 😂.
