So, how bad is this? I already finished it!!! It was fun and is good for the NY Times, but it's really quite easy for obsessive fans like you and me. :)

I have never been able to complete a crossword completely until now and I didn't even look at the crossword but the clues. I am not the hugest fan of Harry Potter annd even I could finish this.

This cross word will only be challenging for the not-so-obsessive Harry Potter fans. Having said that though, I'll be printing out and having a go; just for the fun of it..

I thought that this crossword was great. It is that first I have ever completed, and I only had to look up the spelling of a few of the magical words.

In all honesty, that crossword is way too easy. If it's directed to anyone who reads Harry Potter, the questions are far too easy. For me, as well as many others I'm sure, I got the words for every clue in a total of about three minutes. No hestitation, no confusion. I hope they come out with a more challenging one soon.

That's pretty cool, I should pick up a New York Times, and put it in a frame, so I can someday show my kids that Harry Potter was popular enough to have an entire Crossword Puzzle made after him. 6 DAYS TIL HBP!
