I loved that part. : D

the_chosen_girl, I didn't realise that was your question! Oh, wow! I've wanted to know that for ages! *squee*

Awesome. I just saw the video of Jo actually reading the book and then answering questions. The fans that were there seemed really exited,( Who wouldn't be? It's JK Rowling!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) Anyway, it sounded really cool and i wish I could ask her a few questions, man, what I wouldn't give. I loved the way eveyone screamed when she said the quote about Hermione and Ron "entwining"

I loved the audience reaction when Jo said "Hermione would see herself closely entwined with...another person." Good questions.

Is there a video with the entire NYC reading anywhere? The link that MuggleNet posted only had about 2 minutes of it.

Oh yes, lots of smooching in the future :D

Sweet...excellent report, Miriam! :D

Wow my 2 fav authors 2gether! That makez me sooo happy!! :D There was a lil pop up thing wen i opened the site that said i was the 1 billionth visitor but my pop up killer closed it that sux! If it was just a pop up thatz gay...but if i was the 1 billionth...that rox my world!! :P

lol....Very Cool! i Always like the posts well WE love u JO!

looking beautiful, Jo! and hehe, Hermione "closely entwined" with Won-Won! hehehe... :)

I just want to say, I'll be at the reading tonight, wearing a black and purple swirly skirt, white tank top, and blue flip flops. If it's cold inside the theater, I'll be wearing a black sweater. I'm a bit on the short side, thirteen years old, and I have brown hair and glasses. I'll wave at you if you wave at me. xD

OMG, just watched the videos! Don't you just love Jo? I mean, that evil little smile that's always creeping across her face when she doesn't want to answer us? That's torture, but you've still gotta love her!

Is that Jon Stewart in one of the pictures??

Blah! why does nothing ever work for me?

ohhhh that is so awesome!!!

What does ''ROFL'' mean?

do u guys think they are going to show again on tv or something i want to see it! and what did she mean by "entwined with another person?"

There's a complete transcript avaliable on Dissendium now... it goes into more details about some of the questions than either of the reports I've gotten.

i wish i could go. darn.

I wish I could have been there, but I live in Seattle, nothing exciting ever happens here... Jo has to come to Seattle! that would be amazing.

that was great! I loved the videos and the report. I wish I could be there - I was in Calc IV class instead :( Anyway, was I the only one who nearly cried at the end of the reading? I was like OMG!!!!

I loved the reaction she got when she started to smile and said "with...another....person..." The crowd went wild. It was great.

This was truly one of the best experiences of my life, and I consider it almost a miracle that I got there, because it was so unlikely . . . my family was so lucky.

Um... yes... I think I want to marry Jo Rowling. Oh yeah, and the interview and reading were fantastic! I would have liked more, though (isn't it always the way).

ok that was such an awesome night!!!! I loved the question about what it was like to become an author in the internet age and the reaction about the "shipping wars" LOL

lolz i gott soo lucky i was like 6 rows from the stage i got tix for my bday and i was soo suprised at who was so close to me (emerson =) ) i live about haalf an hour from the city and had the best time of my life there i wish i was there right now but it was either yesterday or today oh well

Was the reading supposed to be from the 7th book? I couldn't even make out what she was saying. Can anybody tell me?

yes LadyArlette that was Jon stewart...and he was really funny there... I WAS THE ONE WHO SHOUTED "HAPPY BIRTHDAY"!!! (when u c the full video of the first night youll know what im talking about"

this is sooo good, oh im gettin emotional, its almost ending...what am i going to do after the potter series????????? HARRY AND JO, I LOVE U!!!!!!!!!

That's so cool! lol, Ron and Hermione. There's something I'm looking forward to.

I just want to say thank you again to all of you wonderful people who liked my question enough to post about it. I'm printing out all of your comments for my corkboard dedicated to An Evening with Harry, Carrie, and Garp.

I though that both nights covered a few good points. It's sad that Dumbledore is really dead though :( But it is good to know. Can't wait for more updates!

On MN's "confirmed info" page they said that: "Hermione will see herself "closely entwined with another person [than Ron]." I however strongly disagree. "with another person" did not directly imply someone outside the trio, it implied someone other than herself, because no one can be entwined with themself. Also, I find it extremely likely it IS Ron, as she has CONFIRMED there is feelings there. I don't know if it's a bitter staff member who added the [than Ron] part, but it is most certainly NOT confirmed it isn't Ron, and therefore is incorrect, as all evidence from Jo's mouth suggests it is him.

Katiemay, I noticed that too! Yeah someone feeling a bit bitter prehaps? It seems pretty obvious she means Ron!

I looked at that page first, and my heart dropped like it was on the Ministry lift and it broke or something. Then I watched the vidio and I was like "Where does she say that...?" I agree with Katiemay also. Why ever couldn't it be Ron? I'm going w/ Jo, sorry MN. Besides who else would it be, Cormac McLaggen? :P Or, uck, Harry... well there goes that pizza I was eatting... ew... Thank you Leaky/Mugglenet Interview for helping in the sinking of that ship.

I agree with katiemay and chocolatefrog12. I was like "WHAT? HJFKSHKJ! Another person than Ron?" Pssh. It's Ron buddy. :) R/Hr

I don't think I was ever so confused in my life than the moment I saw that. I was like "Of course it's Ron you moron, have you been living under a rock for the past year?!" *sigh* Well I think MN probably misinterpereted it, as it's confirmed she does have feelings for Ron. Maybe someone should e-mail them about it, just looking at it makes me really anxious. lol.

is the closley entwined thing going to be in the book? NO ITS SUPPOSED TO BE RON AND HERMIONE!!!! i can just see the ron/hermione ship sinking.... * Toot, toot, bubble, bubble, slip, slap. * please let hermione get with ron!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! yes i am a shipper. i think i've told you that already lol.

katiemay- i totally agree! who was that idiot that put [than ron] there? hehe, i can't wait to see harry's reaction when his two best friends are snogging! But alas, we must remember that this is a mystery book, not a romance novel. ron/hermione shipper- 100%!!

Tuesday Night was Fantastic. All the readings were very enjoyable. Stephan King and John Irving had all of us laughing. You could here a pin drop when JKR did her reading. It was just Great seeing her in person. Ran into Mugglenet members outside Radio City Music hall afterwards. The night was just Great!!!!!

(HA! so many updates :]) sooo incredibly AWESOME! Oh how I wish I could have been there... "But I think Hermione would also see herself closely entwined with another person.... *evil grin*" oh how I love Jo!

I was also confused with the whole "closley entwined with another person [than ron]" thing. I had to read that about ten times before I was like 'That's messed up!' Who would put that there? lol. I'm a HUGE R/Hr shipper! :D

This was SOOO awesome you guys! I LOVE JKR!!! I'm totally ticked that I didn't get to go both nights though...sounds like night #2 got some GREAT questions! Thanks to everyone who posted the info on both nights so quickly! ~Amanda

Hee hee. Your post made me giggle StrangeButCool. I read it like 10 times too, and I left and then I had to check it again if I thought what I read was what I read. I wished I could have gone, but sadly living in the south, that's bit of a drive. Only trips I get to take are to Georgia, Flordia and Tennessee. I'm sure one day we will make a nice trip to South Carolina. :( You lucky dogs who went. How I envy you.

Gah! I can't wait lol

Is that Jon Stewart I see in one of those pictures or am I losing my mind? I also like some of the more character-based questions, like the one about Hermione and the Mirror of Erised. I don't mind not knowing what's coming, but to better understand the characters makes reading the books more fulfilling, I think.

well i find all this stuff very interesting and al but i want to no about book 7
