Yay!! I usually am awful at crosswords,but my Grams had one once in the normal newspaper from around here where she (the amazing crossword expert) had to ask me because it was Harry Potter related...all I remember was the answer was Malfoy...

But now a crossword I can do too! Fun! (Or at least more fun than before...)

I think this crossword puzzle won't take much to do, at all. I am sure the I can do it very quickly. Usually, I am searching for words and asking other people, to get the ones I haven't finished!

This is what I least expected from The New York Times to do. I wonder if all non-Harry Potter fans in NYC will be satisfied with what they get in their paper's croosword puzzle. I bet they'll just skip the page Haha. I'll try and see if I can get a copy if it's not too late.

I love crossword! The harder it is, the better. That NYT's HP crossword is too easy. I wish it were more difficult, so I got to check some facts in the books, or ask questions in HPANA's forum, or perhaps just guess the answer. Nevertheless, it's so much fun to fill the boxes.
