Harry Potter Mania

So, I've been thinking about Harry Potter alot today.  The next (and last) movie is coming out on July 15th and you can bet that I will be at a midnight showing in costume!  Those midnight showings are a lot of fun.  So I did some looking around online and I found some awesome websites about Harry Potter for you guys to check out.  Enjoy!

You have 18 minutes to try to remember the top 200 characters in the books.  I only got 94/200, but I haven't read the books in a while (I should probably read them again if I did that badly!)  Try playing and leave me a comment with how you scored.
