i found a mistake in my Chamber of secrets. On chapter 16 (The Chamber of Secrts) on the bottom of the page, professor is spelled wrong. It is spelled Professorr...now i know that its not a big deal, but i just wanted to post it lol.

hehe, that's silly Laughing There are other mistakes in the books....like in Order of the Phoenix, when Harry and Cho are on their date, Cho is talking about when they were in third year...but she's one year ahead of Harry!

here's another mistake. tom riddle said that he was the ancestor of salazar slytherin. well, he is actually a descendant, not an ancestor. you can find that in the heir of slytherin chapter.

Actually, it was Dumbledore saying that Voldemort was the last remaining ancestor. I'm pretty sure. Anyway, you were right in the essentials. But, I could be wrong.

Another one in mine is that is says Weekend with a Werewolf one time and in the book list it says Wandering with Werewolves.

You said what I was thinking. Between this thread and the one about Percy's name being spelled wrong. I just read the books, They are already edited, so I don't notice. Razz

There are only pictures at the beginning of the chapters. THey are small, and many of them are incorrectly depicted any way. A few of them give away what is going to happen, though.

That drives me nuts. By the time I got to HBP, I took to covering the beginning of each chapter so I wouldn't be spoiled.
