JK Rowling announced today that she’s going to write a novel for adults. Cue the heavens!
Here’s my top 10 reasons it’s the best news of 2012:
1. The pain of Downton Abbey being over is tempered… And now Downton Abbey is the second-most anticipated British property on earth. (Julian Fellowes may have been getting a bit too smug anyway.)
2. She’s Jo *FREAKING* Rowling.
3. She must miss her readers as much as we miss her.
4. I was just lamenting that there weren’t any big *it* books to read yet this year.
5. Probably should just say it again for good measure: She’s Jo *FREAKING* Rowling.
6. When the book is released, there will be more interviews. I love reading news stories about Jo. It’s always so insightful and inspiring.
7. If the HP books were for children… and they got as dark and intense as they did… JUST IMAGINE what Jo can think up for adults.
8. The hashtag #RowlingReturns may appear in every tweet I write between now and the release of the book. Perhaps longer.
9. I will be able to experience waiting in line at a bookstore at midnight for the first time ever. (I never did it for HP and I’m ashamed.)
10. For fun? She’s Jo *FREAKING* Rowling!
