Stop everything potterheads - JK Rowling is releasing a new Harry Potter book!
As most of you know, the author has developed a sequel to the original series, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child - which has been produced into a West End play.
Today it was announced that the script of the play will be published as a book, for those who will not be able to attend the production.

The book will be released on July 31, just after the play opens in London and of course marks Harry and JK Rowling’s birthday.
