Over the weekend, readers dressed up, attended midnight parties, and stayed up all night to read the eighth Harry Potter story, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child Parts One and Two. In addition to rave reviews of the play (currently showing in London) and starred reviews of the script book (Booklist said, "Series fans can breathe easy knowing this play has been respectfully and lovingly wrought," and Entertainment Weekly wrote, "This is Harry Potter like you’ve never experienced it before."), fans are LOVING it. Here's a look at some reader reactions!
