The theme for the third annual Harry Potter Book Night has been announced by Bloomsbury UK. Harry Potter Book Night took place earlier this year in February with the theme “A Night of Spells,” celebrating all our favorite spells in the “Harry Potter” series. If you attended one of the many celebrations that took place across the world, then you’ll know that this is a night of fun not to be missed.

We were very excited when Bloomsbury UK announced the first ever Harry Potter Book Night toward the end of last year. Since we learned about the event, we’ve all been planning how to celebrate our favorite boy wizard and where the magic all started, with bookstores and libraries across the UK – and the world – putting on events on February 5.
It was a happy day indeed for “Potter” fans when J.K. Rowling joined Twitter – especially since for the past few months she’s been more active than ever in responding to fan questions.
