| | |  HBP popular with parliamentarians
' Half-Blood Prince' is reportedly the third favourite holiday reading matter for British parliamentarians this year.
The ' Da Vinci Code' came in first, with the biography of William Pitt the Younger taking second place.

| Crazy Hufflepuffian Sirius 'bout Sirius
A few weeks before HBP was out i saw this man reading OotP while on the bus. He was wearing a really posh suit and i felt like going up to him and asking what page hes on! I thought it was so cool. He was even reading the book with the childrens cover! I thought that was cool. Hes not afraid of people seeing hes got the kids cover version!
I think thats super cool!!

Wow that's pretty good even though it should be first  but I guess you just can't please parliamentarians.
