Levine And Dale Interviewed at BookExpo, America

Arthur Levine and Jim Dale, American editor and audiobook narrator of the Potter series respectively, appeared at BookExpo America yesterday. Newsday caught up with them and posted interviews with the two in their blog. While they didn't reveal anything new, they did drop a few very vague hints. Some would consider his comments slightly spoiler-ish, so highlight in between the arrows below to read:--> Alas, I was less successful wheedling any information about the new Harry Potter from the book’s editor, Arthur Levine. “There’s a new character named Maclaggen,” he said, and spelled the name. And ...? And nothing. Levine clammed up. Jim Dale had mentioned yesterday that somebody dies. True? “I can neither confirm nor deny.” Does Harry have a girlfriend? “I can’t say ... He’s definitely growing up in all areas of his life.” Later, he said he didn’t experience this book to be as dark as the last, though the overall arc of the series is that the “world is getting more pernicious (dangerous).” This one, he said, “has more romance in general.” And then he and marketing VP Jennifer Pasanen, who was sitting in, started humming “Love is in the air.” Well, it’s a clue. <--

Did Anyone Spot This Mistake?

At the second to last page of the Scholastic Paperback version of CoS, it says a bit about the third book, PoA . " Harry Potter has to sneak back to his third year at Hogwarts after accidentally inflating his horrible Aunt Petunia". But how could that be. As we all know that Harry inflated his horrible Aunt Marge.
