Harry Effing Potter

[Laurie]

I'm about 380 pages in, and I have one question: "Effing"? Is that really appropriate in a children's book?

haha, who says this and where?!!

There are at least five instances of this. It's mostly Harry and Ron, but I think Hermione gets one in as well. I didn't mark the pages.

but... are they always wearing the horcrux when speaking it? if so, you know who is to blame...

ps: near rutgers tonight 5-8pm? care to join some fellow harry potter enthusiasts in a discussion of book 7? join us in the SCILS lounge. Berti Botts jelly belly beans to be served.

You're either joking or you have the "adult version" and the "adult version" is actually different.

I should've gotten the "adult version", maybe!

"Maybe".

They don't actually say the real word, but there's a lot of effin' and jeffin' in the book. Well, mostly just the "effing."
