Harry Potter Book 8
So how does everyone feel about JK Rowling announcing that there will be another instalment in the Harry Potter franchise? I for one am very excited at the prospect.
If you could choose, what route do you reckon she should go down? In fact, suggest titles of the 8th book and lets see if we can predict it!

Cid's Knight
I have not heard anything about this. I know she wrote a short story recently for pottermore from Rita Skeeter's perspective but nothing of a book.
Yeah, I haven't heard anything about that either. It'd be all over the news if there was. People have been saying this stuff for years.
And just adding another book into the HP world isn't an eighth book.

Yeah I never said it had been announced. I just wonder how you all felt if this announcement ever materialised. You're all so silly!
Harry Potter and the Unpaid Mortgage.
Dunno. More stuff on the HP world would be cool, but I feel like Harry's story is complete.

I'm interested in the scalamander fantastic beast movies as, if I remember correctly, JK Rowling is writing the scripts. That will be interesting to see the harry potter universe in another time and another way through someone else's eyes.
Harry Potter and the Sordid Affair
You said does instead of would implying it is a thing that happened.
Anyway I'd only be satisfied if Hermione divorced Ron and married Krum
Kefka's coming, look intimidating!
Have a nice day!!
Implying something and stating something are two different things so neerrrrrrr. Plus, my entirely unfunny and mildly irritating jape would not have succeeded otherwise.
I personally would love something set in the universe but entirely detached from Harry Potter and chums. I would love to hear more of Dumbledore's back story. Maybe 'Dumbledore's Memoirs' or something... if only to get a detailed account of his defeat of Grindelwald in 1945.
Let sleeping dogs lie. Good things that end where they should have leave a much better legacy than trying to squeeze more of a story out simply because it has potential within its own fictional realm. The series ended perfectly, and I have a difficult time believing that she could ever give it another ending that was done as well as the one we were left with.
I would probably not read another Harry Potter book if she produced one. I know that there are many diehard Potter fans out there that it would probably please, though.
Eh, I'm a diehard fan and I wouldn't be too happy if another HP book came out.
I wouldn't have an issue with a new book/series set in the same universe, though. Kind of like what's happening with the film versions of Fantastic Beasts.
Harry's story is done, for sure, but I'd love to see more of the wizarding world. Perhaps something totally detached from Hogwarts. Rowling has established a world with a certain sense of magic that could certainly be further explored without having to be tied to the Harry/Voldemort concept.
Like I said, I agree that they shouldn't revisit Harry Potter at all. But the universe itself is far to rich for it not to produce some more fiction set in a different time and place. Some storylines they could possibly look at.
- Dumbledore's Memoirs
- Maybe a book of short stories from the past regarding goblin wars, witch burnings and the fall of the giants.
- Magical Pubs across the world and their various tipples
- The history of music within the magic world
- The full story of what pervy Aberforth did to that goat
There is so much more they could expand on.
