Melissa Anelli from The Leaky Cauldron and Emerson Spartz from Mugglenet were invited by J. K. Rowling to interview her immediately after The Half-Blood Prince was published. [2] Emerson asked Rowling, "What's one question you wished to be asked and what would be the answer to the question?"

She replied, "Um — such a good question. What do I wish I could be asked? Today, just today, July the 16th, I was really hoping someone would ask me about R.A.B., and you did it. Just today, because I think that is — well, I hoped that people would."

Melissa asked, "Is there more we should ask about him?" Rowling replied, "There are things you will deduce on further reading, I think — well you two definitely will, for sure — that, yeah, I was really hoping that R.A.B. would come out."

I just though it was weird how she used "Today, just today, July the 16th" Does this date have something to do with R.A.B??

I'm looking for a good murder mystery book that might be a little more on the graphic side. I've recently hit a slump on reading and need to would like to get back into it with a book that has some good intrigue, sexual content and has a bit of a bite.

Any good recommendations?

There are so many situations that could be listed as the rising action or the climax but what is the actual rising action and climax of the story.

And how does one go about being either admitted to such a fine institution or obtaining a job there?

In the novel, Prince Myshkin described his Swiss home as such that made me want to live there too...even if it means I must be institutionalized, but I would prefer to simply work there. Unfortunately, I don't recall Dostoyevsky mentioning the location or even the name of Prince Myshkin's institution...

(And I know that since I am mentioning the title of a novel that it should be underlined or italicized, but I haven't got that option; so, quotation marks will have to suffice.)
