It's been a while since my last general update, so I thought I'd do a little status of where my collection is so far! I've just added the Czech box set (modelled by Henry the cat) to my collection, bringing total unique book count up to 258. I'm at 33 different...
The Blog
I’ll be posting here whenever I add something new to either of my collections – or something else Harry Potter-related happens that I wanna tell you about.
Books and Garlick
Today I want to talk about my newest addition, the Irish HP1! Which I got by coincidence because of my new Professor Garlick cosplay. I have been playing Hogwarts a lot (maybe a bit too much) and I really wanted to do a cosplay from the game. I settled on Garlick,...
New books of summer 2024!
I have yet to go on holiday myself, but my dad has been travelling some and I have been dreaming online, which has resulted in an online order. First, my dad brought me back MinaLima versions in French and Greek! Now to the big addition: A new language! I found out...
Potter under the tree
I'm slowly working towards making our Christmas tree more Harry Potter-themed. This year's additions were decorations gifted from my friends for Christmas, a few that I bought myself at a convention earlier in the year and - the piece de resistance - a carpet to put...
Birthday gifts for a nerd
So last weekend was my birthday and I had a little party for some of my friends. They all know of and respect my love of Harry Potter, and I think every single one of them gifted me something that had to do with my favourite wizard. Since it 'tis almost the season and...
When friends understand how important HP is to me
Just a quick update - a few weeks ago, a friend of mine spotted these beauties on FB marketplace in a town near her at a pretty good price, too. So she offered to pick them up for me! I'm forever grateful for my friends, both for keeping their eyes open and for taking...
Another marketplace score!
It's been a while since I had much luck finding new books that I don't have. It's starting to get difficult locally, and I didn't do much travelling lately, either. But I did score this pretty awesome find today. It's a signature edition box set. I don't think it was...
Maybe it’s May updates
It is a bit slow in my world of Harry Potter these days. Many of my books come from 2nd hand shops, flea markets, vacations and friends travelling etc. And spring and summer are the season for all of these things, whereas Winter is more dedicated to reading the books...
April news
Nothing much to report here lately, but there's stuff happening. My in-laws sent a package and my father-in-law managed to find HP2 in Lithuanian in the original american cover version. I love how people around me are all happy to help me find the books I don't have...
Still collecting
It's been a while, but I'm still here and still collecting! I added a couple of books since my last update, but nothing super interesting - HP6 in German (original cover art version) and HP3 in the original British children's hardcover version. A friend of mine went...
