Posted by taraupshall90 Jul 27th 2007

is it just for americans?


Posted by tru2Dumby713 Jul 27th 2007

that's awesome. hey, is anyone else having trouble finding the entry form from the link? all i can find about a sweepstakes is the one to win tickets for Jo's Midnight release reading, nothing about an open book tour. np374, get a life that doesn't depend on people's reactions to lame insults.k?


Posted by Eragon_Potter Jul 27th 2007

i wanna win soooooooooo bad


Posted by ilovehp2much Jul 27th 2007

tru2Dumby713 - i can't find the entry form either! so im just typing up my name/adress/phone number and sending it in.


Posted by clue91 Jul 27th 2007

tru2Dumby713, I'm having the same problem. It still says that they will release the information on July 30th. But come July 30th, I will enter!! And win, hopefully. :)


Posted by MuggleMage Jul 27th 2007

I can't find the entry form either, it just says to check back on July 30th. I hate the Scholastic website especially their polls. "Which Quiditch team in Hogwarts is the best?" Jo's own publisher can't even spell Quidditch T_T


Posted by mlm7291 Jul 27th 2007

I can't find it either, do we have to wait until July 30th?


Posted by beaker Jul 27th 2007

Is it wrong to enter your childs name because you think that you are too old to be entering the contest themselves.


Posted by crumple_horned_snorkack22 Jul 27th 2007

Yeah, I'm just going to write up my entry form and send it in on the 30th, because i dont want them to throw it away if I send it in too early. Still, that sounds SOOO cool! I would love to go!


Posted by dobby101 Jul 27th 2007

fuc* you np347 whats your problem? if we should stick a gun to anyone's head it's you!


Posted by snipesnape626 Jul 27th 2007

yeah, but dont worry guys, it is stupid people like np347 that really make me laugh. think of it like this, if there were no stupid people, then who would make people like us look smart? and yeah i could not find the entry form either. someone remind me when the 30th rolls around... i just finished the book last night for a second time. it really helps, reading it again, because things that did not seem so trivial at the time earlier in the book really do play a huge part later. it was interesting to take a closer look and it really helped to explain things :-) * i was two seconds away from starting it a third time. i had to put the book into another room so i could fall asleep. lol


Posted by North_Liam Jul 27th 2007

I'm lovin' the np347 insults! Keep them coming everyone.


Posted by PotterLove06 Jul 27th 2007

SWEET! i want to enter


Posted by erisedxx Jul 27th 2007

grr. i can't find the entry form either!! oh well, i just send me own =] what should go on it? just our name/address/phone/email and age im guessing, iono. [please send msgs to sunshineunderground, my email for this username wont work =[ ]


Posted by yerap Jul 27th 2007

oh man that would be AMAZING :[[


Posted by Marion Jul 27th 2007

please Jo, go to France ... only once ... we love you too !!


Posted by TheUnknownNigel Jul 27th 2007

I would soo like to win this, it would be awesome! :)


Posted by Jaszman Jul 27th 2007

I believe book 7 was her worst book of the series. The first 6 kept me wanting to read more, however the only reason I wanted to continue to read book 7 was to get to the end. If The Deathly Hollows was to stand on it's own, without the first 6. It would not have done as well as her first book. Don't get me wrong! I thinkl she is a very talented author, and I will read whatever she writes next, but unfortunantly, book 7 was a complete let down. Too long, stretched out, and ended like a bad "B" rated movie. All in all, the series was fantastic.


Posted by hrypotrox79 Jul 27th 2007

i wanna go soooo badlyyyy, too bad i can't find the form...waiting until the 30th! cant waitttt!!! =]


Posted by XxCappaxX Jul 27th 2007

np374- why would u even HAVE an account if you didnt like this site?!?! if you took the time to make one just to insult harry potter fans, then dude, you need a life.


Posted by tru2Dumby713 Jul 27th 2007

beaker- don't be ashamed! everyone always says HP is for all ages. besides u only enter a name not ur age. but if u think u hav a better chance with a child's name, go right ahead.


Posted by ginnyweasley4 Jul 27th 2007

Holy cow! The reading is no my birthday!! October 19th!!! That would be amazing if I could go........


Posted by Greta Jul 27th 2007

The information will be posted on the 30th (Monday) I saw Jo last summer at Radio City Music Hall, but it would be great to see her again. Not much of a chance though. What I don't understand is that the capacity at Carnagie Hall is 2,800, yet there are only 1,000 tickets available to win. Could there be THAT many VIP's from the publishing companys etc..? Doesn't really seem fair to all the "little people".


Posted by fawkes6jgm Jul 27th 2007

that would be soooo cool. PS: I HAVE A QUESTION!!-does anybody know where the form is on the website, because i cant find it


Posted by butrbeergirl Jul 27th 2007

THAT WOULD BE AMAZING!!!!


Posted by StrawberryKiwi Jul 27th 2007

omg I want to go!!


Posted by brianalee Jul 27th 2007

omg this is amazing!!! it would be a hp fans dream to go and meet her..i'm going to make all of my friends enter..cuz if u win u get two tickets right?????????? then i would force them to take me with..hahaha


Posted by Cherrysakura5 Jul 27th 2007

I can't find the form. I've searched the whole Harry Potter website.


Posted by Mikeimus Jul 27th 2007

This woudl be the best birthday ever if I won!!! My birthday is October 19!!!


Posted by brianalee Jul 27th 2007

i think that the form goes "online" on july 30..thats prolly why we can't get to it right now...dannnggg


Posted by chellabella Jul 27th 2007

I'll go back to the website on the thirtieth and enter. If I don't win, I 'll ask my school for a field trip... And get out of the website np374. And while you're at it, GET A LIFE!
