 This book should add a new twist to the info and facts behind HP! Would the book be legit by J.K's standards and is she aware?

That sounds great! I bet JK does know and I was wondering about if she would let it be published... Though I have seen a few books analysing the HP world in Waterstones...

Well, this wouldn't be the first HP themed book that's out on the market. But still, it's quite intriguing 
__________________ I gotta go back to the muggle world,
they're gonna try and tell me this wasn't, that none of this happened,
but you know what? It was real. It did happen.
We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. | |

I'd like to read a book like that! It would be good for university courses, adult fans and anyone interested in that type of debate!
