Good writers are readers. To this end, The Writing Tutor dedicates itself to promoting reading as well as writing. The newest discussion topic is Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, J.K.

The release of the most recent book in the Harry Potter series is the perfect opportunity for educators to push reading since so many children (and adults) love the series. To encourage reading and literary discussion, The Readers’ Corner Book Club has posted the question: “What did you think of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince?” For a little added fun, The Writing Tutor has also included a survey asking people how quickly they read the book.
