After Harry Potter

I have to admit I haven't seen the Harry Potter movies, although I have been told they are fun. I read the first four Harry Potter novels while attending graduate school, and I have to admit to listening to Jim Dale and his fantastic job of storytelling. Hey, I was going to graduate school, when did I have time to read for fun except in the car driving back and forth to Cincinnati and Columbus. Harry Potter kept me company. And I always like the point of the story where I was hooked and the drama picked up and I couldn't wait for the next part of the story. I read Little Witch by Anna Elizabeth Bennett in grade school, so as I child I can remember the fun witch story about a little girl whose mother turned her friends into flowers in pots. Children Like magic and imagination. I came across this article on NPR and just had to share it. What comes next for the Harry Potter readers who are ready for more grown up books? Check out the recommendations of Intern Annie Ropeik.
