How could I describe it? This is the book I've always wished to read, when I was younger...

Suggerimenti:

1. Per il libro va fatto solo il journal entry (meglio se uno in entrata e uno in uscita); si prega di non fare release notes;
2. Se possibile, aggiungete al j.e. un’immagine, per esempio una foto della vostra città (o vostra!);
3. Potete mettere nel libro (o nella busta di spedizione, o strillettera ihih) dei segnalibri, delle cartoline o qualsiasi altra cosa (meglio se commestibile ihihih);
4. Nella busta troverete anche un quadernino (se troppo piccolo, aggiungete alcune pagine!) sul quale scrivere commenti, citazioni, impressioni...

Contattate per tempo l'anello seguente, così da essere pronti a rispedire il libro in tempi brevi!

Importante: è inutile specificare che, quando vi arriverà il libro a casa, abbia la precedenza su tutto quello che state già leggendo, in modo da farlo ripartire al più presto, nel rispetto di tutti coloro che hanno aderito.

Enjoy your reading, dear Witches and Wizards!
beckys, the sorting hat ;)

"Oh, you may not think I'm pretty,
but don't judge on what you see,
I'll eat myself if you can find
a smarter hat than me.
You can keep your bowlers black,
your top hats sleek and tall,
for I'm the Hogwarts Sorting Hat
and I can cap them all.
There's nothing hidden in your head
the Sorting Hat can't see,
so try me on and I will tell you
where you ought to be.
You might belong to Gryffindor,
where dwell the brave at heart,
their daring, nerve and chivalry
set Gryffindors apart;
you might belong to Hufflepuff,
where they're just and loyal,
those patient Hufflepuffs are true
and unafraid of toil;
or yet in wise old Ravenclaw,
if you've a ready mind,
where those of wit and learning,
will always find their kind;
or perhaps in Slytherin
you'll make your real friends,
those cunning folk use any means
to achieve their ends.
So put me on! Don't be afraid!
And don't get in a flap!
You're in safe hands (though I have none)
for I'm a Thinking Cap!"

---> bookring partito! Enjoy your reading!

Found it today inthe mail box ....I'm starting immediately.

Journal Entry 5 by PenelopePitstop from Melzo, Lombardia Italy on Monday, July 7, 2003
Even if it is well written and a nice and funny story it's definitely a children book.
It is hard to understand this huge mass enthusiasm for every new book, considering that only a small part of this "mass crazyness" comes from children... :-)
Book will be handed out to human during the next MU in Milan (tomorrow....)

Journal Entry 6 by Human from Milano, Lombardia Italy on Thursday, July 10, 2003
OK. Got the book at the Meet-Up, directly from PenelopePitstop'a hands. I started quite well, but I'll let you know further on.

Journal Entry 7 by Human from Milano, Lombardia Italy on Monday, July 21, 2003
Nice and easy. I didn't want to read anything about Harry Potter, for the only reason that I don't like readign books that are too much advertised. Then came the ring. And I subscribed. And I'm happy I did it. And I liked the book. Nice and easy, not more.
Good luck Harry Potter, you will survive even without me as a reader.

Journal Entry 8 by agnul from Milano, Lombardia Italy on Wednesday, July 23, 2003
Got the book from Matto yesterday evening. Stay tuned for more.

Journal Entry 9 by agnul from Milano, Lombardia Italy on Monday, July 28, 2003
It's a nice book, you can't help enjoying it even if you're no longer a child. I'll be looking for more :-)

Journal Entry 10 by BlackLilith from Città di Castello, Umbria Italy on Tuesday, July 29, 2003
The Griffindor's keeper got the book today! I'll read it as soon as possible and then will send it to venere. Thanks! :-)

Journal Entry 11 by BlackLilith from Città di Castello, Umbria Italy on Friday, August 8, 2003
I haven't a Nimbus 2000 but a turbo Gsx-R 1300 (in my dreams)...that's a nice and funny books, I really liked it (especially in the end)...ehm, I'm Griffindor's keeper, it's a demanding role eheheh... ;-) Will leave on monday to Cornuda (Tv).

Journal Entry 12 by venere from Treviso, Veneto Italy on Friday, August 22, 2003
arrivato....

Journal Entry 13 by venere from Treviso, Veneto Italy on Saturday, October 4, 2003
Equally enjoyable for child and adult...ne ho letta gran parte con il mio cuginetto di due anni che sa l'inglese meglio di me e ho difficoltà a dire dei due chi fosse il bambino ;-)

Journal Entry 14 by Quinnipak from Roma, Lazio Italy on Wednesday, October 8, 2003
Grazieee!! Arrivato ieri mattina... insieme alle tasse universitarie! :-/

Journal Entry 15 by Quinnipak from Roma, Lazio Italy on Monday, November 3, 2003
L'avevo già letto in italiano, perciò non c'è stato l'effetto sorpresa, ma mi sono divertita tanto a rileggerlo e stranamente capivo l'inglese più di quanto mi aspettassi! :-)
Grazie Beckys!

Journal Entry 16 by vesna from Torino, Piemonte Italy on Thursday, November 6, 2003
lho gia letti tutti e 5 in italiano
da questo ri-inizio a conoscere il mondo magico di harry!

-----------------------

un unico grido mi rimbomba nella testa: VOGLIO TORNAR BAMBINA (per poter leggere leggere leggere i libri "bambineschi")
grandioso...

Journal Entry 17 by spacetave from Torino, Piemonte Italy on Sunday, November 30, 2003
Arrivato prima della partenza per il meet-up, ne ho approfittato per fargli conoscere qualche altro corsaro : )

Journal Entry 18 by Banshee on Friday, April 23, 2004
here it is!
Il maghetto è volato fin qui, con il suo quadernetto gufoso e il segnalibro saettoso. Sono proprio curiosa di leggere i nomi originali.

Journal Entry 19 by Banshee on Thursday, May 6, 2004
Funny and amusing.
"There are some things you can't share without ending up liking each other, and knocking out a twelve foot mountain troll is one of them." Fortunately there are less dangerous things we can share, and ending up liking each other!
Grazie Beckys per il simpatico ring. Il libro riparte lunedi (nella calma post-FieraDelLibro).

Journal Entry 20 by leggiona on Saturday, May 15, 2004
Welcome Harry! Book arrived sound and sane and... already full of "add-in's"!

Journal Entry 21 by leggiona on Monday, June 21, 2004
So brilliant, fresh and amusing... an appealing "starter" for the Harry Potter series.
I enjoyed reading it again in English and my husband enjoyed it too, with frequent giggles.
The other HP books get so dark and tragic: I wish Mrs Rowling would start a parallel series of such hearty-laughter & suspence books!

(Mailed to Rainbow83 on Saturday)

Journal Entry 22 by rainbow83 from Parma, Emilia Romagna Italy on Tuesday, June 29, 2004
Eccolo, eccolo!!
It's the third different version that get's through my hands... I read it in "American", German and finally queen-english.. Ironic is that i've no experience with HP1 in Italian (no book, nor movie...) ;-P
Hope to keep it for a very short time, since i know the story almost as i lived it myself!!

Thanks to all the past link of the chain!


Journal Entry 23 by Lallyna from Trento, Trentino Alto Adige / Südtirol Italy on Wednesday, July 28, 2004

Journal Entry 24 by Lallyna from Trento, Trentino Alto Adige / Südtirol Italy on Wednesday, February 16, 2005
Parte oggi per Cagliari ... grazie a tutti e scusate il ritardo!

Journal Entry 25 by Gatsbythesee from Cagliari, Sardegna Italy on Monday, February 21, 2005
E' arrivato il libro di Harry Potter !!! Il bookring di "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" !!
Gats

Journal Entry 26 by Gatsbythesee from Cagliari, Sardegna Italy on Tuesday, May 3, 2005
Eccolo finito !! Praticamente l'ho letto insieme alla versione italiana, è stato interessante scoprire i diversi termini e i nomi, sicuramente quelli italiani sono meno fantasiosi.
Ora torna a Beckys.
Grazie
Gats

Journal Entry 27 by beckys on Tuesday, June 21, 2005
Il libro è tornato a casa!
Grazie a tutti quanti per aver partecipato e per averci lasciato sopra un segno... acqua compresa! :-)
