After a magical attempt on her life in 1877, Queen Victoria launched a crusade against magic that, while tidied up by the Ministry of Magic, saw the Wizarding community exiled to Hogsmeade, previously little more than a crossroad near the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. In the years that have passed since, Hogsmeade has suffered plagues, fires, and Victorian hypocrisy but is still standing firm.

I'm glad to hear you've liked James' work! You shall have to keep me updated on what you think of it. What genres do you like to read? I have a bit of a thing for mysteries (& the occasional penny-dreadful.)
To be quite honest with you, I haven't had much time to indulge in the luxury of reading in these past few years. I'm afraid studying has taken up much of that time that would otherwise be spent with my nose in a book, however I'm quite fond of mysteries as well! I enjoy books with adventures too — ones ability to travel to distant shores is something I very much envy. And with mysteries, I always like to solve a good puzzle, but I don't think that would come as any sort of surprise!

Mysteries & adventure-books offer an excellent opportunity to solve puzzles and read about other places; sometimes I think my desire to solve mysteries is what led me to be placed in Ravenclaw house.
You should try some Edgar Allen Poe.
Ah! The muggle writer, I've heard of him. Though I've never ventured to delve into his works. I've heard quite interesting things about him. From what little research I've conducted, it seems he had completed quite a few works before his demise (which is apparently a mystery of itself that I can only assume you might have looked into) — what would you recommend I start with?
