Tomorrow through Thursday on BBC Radio 4 FM, Evanna Lynch (Luna) will do a reading of Foster by Claire Keagan. The story will air in three 15-minute segments, August 31 through September 2, at 3:30 p.m.
A heartbreaking, haunting story of childhood, loss and love by one of Ireland’s most acclaimed writers. A small girl is sent to live with her mother’s people on a farm in rural Ireland, without knowing when she will return home. In the strangers’ house, she finds a warmth and affection she has not known before and slowly begins to blossom in their care. And then a secret is revealed, and suddenly, she realizes how fragile her idyll is.
After airing the episodes will be available online here on the BBC iPlayer for one week.
Thanks SS!

This weekend The Intrepid Traveler kindly sent over a copy of Universal Orlando 2011 so I could check out their new 16 page chapter on The Wizarding World of Harry Potter. This book also contains a ton of great information on all the other Universal Theme Parks & is a definite must read if you plan on visiting any of the parks.
As someone who has not been able to visit the theme park yet (depressing!) I excitedly opened the book right up to the Wizarding World chapter to read all about it. The section begins with a short introduction on the park noting some pros and cons. Then they get into each ride and rate them, say how long they take and even have some tips and notes such as, “There is a small pouch in the back of each rider’s seat, just big enough for your keys, wallet, and cellphone or compact camera. Don’t forget your belongings when your journey ends!” Everything is very descriptive and gives you a good idea of what to expect when entering the park.
At the end of the chapter the authors tell readers about the food and shopping in the park giving prices for some of the items. This will definitely be helpful for the fans that are trying to decide how much money they need to save before visiting the park.
For those of you that want to know more about other parks as well you can read about Universal Studios, Islands of Adventure, CityWalk and the Resort Hotels. The book also lets you know where to stay if you don’t want to stay at a resort hotel. There is also a list of all the places you can eat and where they are located. You will definitely want to get this book before making a trip to the parks and to take it with you to use as a guide.
————————————————————————————————————————
If you are interested in purchasing this book, I suggest you do it before Labor Day since the book is HALF OFF with free shipping until then, so you will pay $7.98 rather than $15.95! Head over to this page to order it! You can also pre-order the book on Amazon.com.
