JK Rowling Announces The Title Of The Sixth Harry Potter Installment

JK Rowling, author of the Harry Potter series, has announced, through her site, the title of the next installment. A few weeks earlier a report surfaced that someone had hacked into her site and stumbled on the new title, Harry Potter and the Pillar of Storge. The report came with evidence in the form of footage of the opening of a mysterious door that revealed the title dated July 1st. Potter fans were up in arms at the title until Jk confirmed herself that this title was a hoax by revealing the true title Harry Potter and The Half Blood Prince.

Rowling said through her site that, "information you take directly from this site will be truthful and accurate (I might occasionally joke, but as time goes on, you'll learn to tell when I'm joking). Do not trust anybody else claiming to have found information on this site that you cannot access, however seemingly convincing the images they provide to support their story...
Anyway: if you continue to exercise patience, you will find that the Do Not Disturb Door opens again… and again… giving you further hints about book six. But as a little bonus, and compensation for having been messed around by Mr. or Ms. Storgé, I shall tell you one thing without making you shift any bricks at all: the HBP is neither Harry nor Voldemort. And that's all I'm saying on THAT subject until the book's published."

Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince was once the working title for the second installment in the series, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.

I recommend any Harry Potter fan to visit www.jkrowling.com . Besides information on Book 6, it also debunks rumors, gives insights on the characters, and is filled with riddles and quests which are loads of fun. All of this with JK's quirky sense of humor.
