Reading Recommendations: Harry Potter Websites

Have you read all the Harry Potter books countless times and still can't get enough of the Wizarding World? Not to fear! You can get your much-needed Potter fix online. Hardcore Potter fans may already know about these websites, but just in case, here are a few of the best: 

* Pottermore – Be sorted into your house. Get your wand. Create your own Patronus. Read hundreds of articles about the Wizarding World, including some by J.K. Rowling herself. Participate in book clubs. Discover more about America's Ilvermorny school. There's so much to explore. 

* The Harry Potter Lexicon – Have a question about some aspect of Harry Potter's world? You can most likely find the answer on this encyclopedic website. And while you research, you can catch up on the latest Potter news, read interesting articles, learn the latest Galleon exchange rates, and enjoy some fantastic artwork. 

* Hogwarts is Here – If you've ever dreamed about attending Hogwarts, you're in luck. At Hogwarts is Here, you can take courses in all kinds of magical subjects (your work is even graded by volunteer professors); read books in the library; peruse the Hogwarts Entertainment magazine; roleplay with other Potter fans; and earn points for your house. It's really quite a lot of fun. 

* The Hog's Head – Although this website hasn't been updated for a while, it still offers some interesting Harry Potter reading as well as archived episodes of the Hog's Head Pub Cast and helpful links. 

* Hogwarts Professor – John Granger has written several interesting books on the Harry Potter series, and his blog supplies plenty of good supplementary reading material. 

* The Leaky Cauldron – Potter news. Potter crafts. Potter essays. It's all here. 

* Mugglenet – Want to read The Quibbler or The Daily Prophet? You can do so on Mugglenet. You can also dig deeply into the little details of the books and movies, learn about Wizard Rock, try some of Rosemerta's recipes, listen to SpeakBeasty (a podcast all about Fantastic Beasts), and explore much more. 

So sit back, relax, read, take a class or two, and enjoy the Wizarding World online!
