Um..Yeah Right!
VANCOUVER, British Columbia (Reuters)Harry Potter's latest secret may have slipped out in Canada, and publishers of the best-selling books hope the magical allure of author J.K. Rowling's autograph will get it back under wraps.
Rowling's sixth book about the young wizard is scheduled to be released on July 16, but a store near Vancouver briefly put the put the book on sale last week.Raincoast Books Ltd., which distributes the books in Canada, said a "small number" of the books were sold, and it has won a court injunction barring the buyers of "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" from disclosing the plot.
Why in the world would someone return the book if they already had it? What's an autograph anyway? I've never really understand the thrill with autographs. It's a signature on a scrap of paper. Big deal! And you know the people who bought the book knew it wasn't supposed to be out yet because let's face it we've been waiting for this book for 2 years!
Read it all here.
