The HOL Book Club welcomes you to turn the page for months of literary hijinks and fun! We are a home for book lovers of every persuasion. Whether you like sharing your thoughts in a review or discussion, writing some fanfiction (or even something of your own creation) or enjoying some book themed ...

The club area is as noisy and bustling as all the ones that came before it. You can see a book fort with flags fluttering from the top, a table buckling under the weight of enticing puzzles and what appear to be severl huge, twelve sided dice moving around on their own (and intent on knocking people...

You notice that a lot of people seem to be carrying far more stuff than they were when you all entered the fair. Someone passes with a veritable niffler’s hoard of brightly coloured items and you backtrack towards the booths, on the lookout for freebies. For this task, we’d love you to design someth...

At the centre of the fair is a large table, groaning under the weight of an assortment of items. At a glance, you can see books, telescopes, bottles of potion ingredients and batches of cookies (probably not the best idea to have those last two so close together). This is the HOL gift exchange and i...

Mine is pretty boring. Sky Alton is a character in the first novel I ever wrote (for NaNoWriMo 2012) and I was still very much into that fictional universe when I signed up to HOL almost a year later (also, I was in a hurry as back then, there was only a narrow window where HOL accepted signups). I ...

The Departments section of the fair is cluttered. Quidditch balls are whizzing overhead, a flock of quick quotes quills are churning out quatrains by themselves and there are ribbons and origami flowers fluttering everywhere. The Departments are an excellent place to unwind or challenge yourself out...

There’s nothing quite like getting something straight from the thestral’s mouth (okay that sounds slightly gross). Questionable idioms not withstanding, advice from people with experience is a very valuable thing indeed. Welcome to the HOL Advice bureaux! Established members: is there a neat life ha...

As you pass yet another table, a breeze knocks a pile of parchment off the edge. You reach down to snag a few sheets before you accidentally step on them. They appear to be maps of the castle with a few important locations marked, though you don’t think nearly enough things have been labelled to sto...
