Sign Up for the Read-Along
If you’d like to take part in the Philosopher’s Stone read-along, please post below. We’ll respond to let you know which character you’ve been given.
You’ll use your assigned character to answer the character tasks posted each week. They’ll also be your playing token on the board game.
We’ll be drawing characters at random from a list. In the spirit of this being all about Philosopher’s Stone and Harry’s first year at Hogwarts, we’ll be using first years featured in the book to start with (excluding Harry, Ron and Hermione to make it fairer). If we get more signups than we have first years on the list, then we’ll move onto other characters.
You can sign up at any point before the deadline (11:59 PM HOL-time on the 31st of May) but if you leave it until an hour or two before the deadline, we can’t promise you’ll get your character assignment in time (though we’ll do our best!).
