Hey- I know some might find this cheesy, but please read the following and donate if you can. I've already done so because all the money goes towards getting books to kids who need them. SO if you like books, if you love Harry Potter, if you just feel like supporting a good cause, donate a little or a lot. I did around 20$ myself.

Paypal is easier than 1-2-3.

:D
