Daughter of Smoke & Bone | Laini Taylor

When people were posting their #authorautobuy picks, I could not participate because there are TOO many.
What I do have is a shorter list of authors I will buy in languages that I cannot read just to collect alternate versions. It always helps that the Germans make amazing covers. And this time a super amazing under the jacket design!

DGRachel 😍😍😍 8y

brilliantglow That is probably the best cover I have seen for that book. Such a great series😍😍 8y

elkeOriginal @brilliantglow There is also a bit of spot gloss on her eye so it eerily shines - such a good cover design! 8y

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban | J.K. Rowling

For today's #hpchapteraday finishing of book 3, here is my german edition (#ofcourseIcannotreadit) bought simply for the cover and hipster Harry.
Sirius & Padfoot wanted to say hi too 💕

Maike Ah, there's my childhood.... 😊 8y

MidnightBookGirl Lol, Hipster Harry! Love it! 8y

julesG I never bought the German edition because I don't like Hipster-Harry. ;) So my kids have to get the German edition from the local library or have to read the UK (Bloomsbury) edition. 8y

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone | J.K. Rowling

Another post as I continue to dig into my collection of HP 1 #foreigneditions #notinenglish for you: Finnish!

I wanted you to not only see the incredible noses on the kids, but also the cute Dumbledore on the back cover.
And, as always: #ofcourseIcannotreadit. I just love alternate editions and other covers 😁

DGRachel Love the Dumbledore illustration! 8y

Are these Italian editions of HP 1 & 2 not the cutest illustrations? He's flying on a book! ⚡️

#foreigneditions #notinenglish #ofcourseicannotreadit

I-read-and-eat These are adorable 😀 Why is he flying on a book though? 8y

elkeOriginal @I-read-and-eat Does it matter? 😁 8y

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone | J.K. Rowling

More fun #notinenglish #foreigneditions HP1 editions I own, yet cannot read:
Icelandic and Faroese (Faroe Islands).
After recent posts about Iceland's Christmas reading tradition, I am not surprised they quickly got their own version, but the Faroe Islands? Cozy North Atlantic island nations for the win!
Both have been on my vacation wish list for awhile too 😁
#ofcourseicannotreadit

Eyglo It's so cool to see an Icelandic book here on Litsy 😊 I don't think there are many Icelanders on this app - at least none that I'm aware of! 8y

elkeOriginal @Eyglo Icelanders are so literate they would love it here! 8y

The other major olde timey language one should have an edition of HP1 in: Latin.
#notinenglish #foreigneditions #ofcourseIcannotreadit

sonorously

I-read-and-eat This translation is amazing! The way classical Latin is used in this modern novel is so creative! It also helped me a great deal with my Latin 😊 Also: Dobby ❤💖 8y

thec0zy Yay Latin! 😍 8y

Louise Oooooohhhhhh! ❤️ 8y
