This week's random book fact :)

J K Rowling's Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, the fifth book in the acclaimed series, had a first-run print of 8.5 million copies. This is approximately 80 times the average bestseller!

This beat the previous book, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, which had a first-run print of 4.8 million copies.

I love all the HP books! I can't get over what an amazing storyteller J.K. Rowling is! I have the series on audio as well and listen every day. What a cool fact!

I found you through Book Blogs and signed up to follow you. When you have a chance- please stop by and follow the blog for my middle grade novel that I am hoping to get published. http://thesecretdmsfilesoffairdaymorrow.blogspot.com/

Take care-
Jess- although I may show up as Fairday, the main character from my novel. I can't figure out how to fix it. :)
