It is that strange time before publication, when its too late to start a new book (I’ve just finished Great Expectations on very good advice) and too long to wait for the new book. For those who are tempted: Apple Books have release the first 120 pages as a preview, and for the rest of us, we must keep ourselves busy. To help us pass the time productively, Beatrice Groves- Research Lecturer and tutor at Trinity College, Oxford, and author of Literary Allusion in Harry Potter, will present three articles on Friday, Saturday and Sunday to whet our appetites.
Someone who is certainly keeping herself busy (and at work too!) is J. K. Rowling:

Which of course begs the question – what is she working on? Could it be ‘Love Stories for the Rich and Desperate’? ‘Final Cries of Men’? a new chapter in the Fantastic Beasts franchise or cracking on with Strike 7? She has surprised us before with two unexpected children’s books, so really anything is on the table. Let me know what you think down below.
