We collect FOUND stuff: love letters, birthday cards, kids' homework,
to-do lists, ticket stubs, poetry on napkins, telephone bills, doodles -
anything that gives a glimpse into someone
else's life. Anything goes...
Do they also have an interest in the nearby book store? Why write a note telling a random stranger to pre order a book? Did they misspell Dumbledore?
JK Rowling says Dumbledore is gay. Is it Celebrate Diversity week at Found?
oohhh...I remember waiting impatiently for this book in 2007 and when it finally arrived, stayed up all night to read it.
*singing* Bibliophile loooooove...what beauty it is...Bibliophile loooooove...
Richard Harris was perfect as Dumbledore!
everal hundred pages of crap, as far as I'm concerned. Apparently the public will read almost any rancid trash that comes their way," she said. Then, smiling, she added, "I was pretty bored after getting out of rehab, and pretty hard up for cash, so I decided I'd write my own. That's when I got the idea for the Harr
That is lame. Both the sticker and the fact someone would write a note about it. "Members of Dumbledores army" Cringe worthy.
People have too much time these days.
I think its cute, very cute. :)
If someone leaves a note for you, is it really "found"?
Its found in a sense. I like the people who wrote this note, and the person who received. *sigh* a beauteous thing to see people unite under the love of Harry Potter. Some people just dont understand.
A kid reading a 700+ page book? it's all good.
Those exclamation points really chap my ass.
LOL, Fooch! I did the same. Not only that, I was engaged in ongoing conversations with adult, professionally employed friends. We were speculating about Snape (good or evil?), which was the big question to be answered. When my book arrived, well, I was not to be bothered with anything else.
Good times.
@ Grab Bag ... I'll bet "Roehel" and "Roshni" are 2 twenty-something "kids." Still, with the kind of literacy we usually see here in the Finds, maybe it really IS remarkable for someone in her third decade to make it all the way through a 700 page book, kid or not.
And they're probably code names so that if the forces of darkness had found the note, the secrets of the D.A. wouldn't be broken. ["D.A." ... hmmm, does that stand for 'Dumbledore's Army' or for 'Dark Arts'? Now even I'm confused.]
Roehel and Roshni worked for the local bookstore in Santa Clarita, and they had devised a scheme to attract Harry Potter lovers. They looked for cars that had Harry Potter bumper stickers and left seemingly friendly fellow fan notes but at the end started to involve pre-ordering the book.
I know the writing is hard to decipher, but doesn't "Rachel" make more sense than "Roehel"?
May I puke now?
@Fried: How did you hold off this long?
The best things in life are free, but you can give them to the birds and bees. I want money, that's what I want... JK Rowling+Harry Potter=Money. DUH. Not great literature, though people reading anything is good, but this is a money-making franchise pile-o-crap. Sorry to the millions who are offended. Not.
PS: The gay Dumbledore thing? Please. Talk about marketing.

lol someone said it, finally. thank you.
Lov in, waiting, and fried: glad I am not living in your house.
kill joys....
@farmer....you are a god...i kneel at your feet...
i don't get the harry potter thing...but whatever gets kids to read, right?
i love lord of the rings, but i was there at the beginning, books and animation and stuff - that kinda makes it different than harry, right?
spam ?> found dudes are dopers _ 4:20
@Lost, I was there in the very beginning. What really sold the next generation on LOTR was the invention of Dungeons and Dragons. The original game, without all the stuff. The one you played with a pad, pencil and two sets of dice. I remember it even before the special 12-sided dice came out. The handbooks heavily cannibalized Tolkein's work.
And then came "The Chronicles of Thomas Covenant the Unbeliever." I trudged through 3 or 4 volumes waiting for him to stop writing with a thesaurus in one hand and for something to actually happen. I gave up.
Shouldn't it be - Dear Harry Potter Fan?
"Dear Harry Potte Lover" - doesn't get off to the right tone - especially when the word Sticker actually looks alot like Sucker...
For those of you complaining about Harry Potter not being real literature, it could be worse. Much worse. One word: Twilight.
