JK Rowling announces new book “The Casual Vacancy”
JK Rowling has announced that her new novel The Casual Vacancywill be published on September 27.
The Harry Potter author confirmed that she was working on a story “very different” to the Harry Potter series. Published by Little, Brown and Company, The Casual Vacancywill be Rowling’s first tale for adults.
In the publication announcement, the first details of the book’s plot were confirmed.
”When Barry Fairweather dies unexpectedly in his early 40s, the little town of Pagford is left in shock. Pagford is, seemingly, an English idyll, with a cobbled market square and an ancient abbey, but what lies behind the pretty façade is a town at war. Rich at war with poor, teenagers at war with their parents, wives at war with their husbands, teachers at war with their pupils… Pagford is not what it first seems. And the empty seat left by Barry on the parish council soon becomes the catalyst for the biggest war the town has yet seen. Who will triumph in an election fraught with passion, duplicity and unexpected revelations?”
The book will be published worldwide in the English language on e-book, unabridged audio download and CD on Thursday, September 27.

Tulisatalks out over sex tape
Check out this video to see what X-Factor judge Tulisa Contostavlos had to say about her recently leaked sex tape. Whilst she does make some valid points and her ex-boyfriend IS in the wrong for leaking it, surely a celebrity should expect things like this to happen if they’re famous and filming themselves in an “intamate moment”!
