JK Rowling to Publish Book for Adults

This is exciting! I can't wait for her new book to come out. I just loved her Harry Potter series. Even though they were technically meant for children, they definitely appealed to adults. They still appeal to me lol. I remember an article a ways back about JK Rowling saying she wanted to write a mystery novel (I can't find the source, but I remember reading it). Maybe that's what she'll write next? I really liked her style with Harry Potter. I wonder what she'll come out with next?

The thing I find amusing about this story is that it seems everyone is saying "JK Rowling is going to write a book for adults!". The thing is, most of her fans are now adults - she's writing a book for her fans. Even the actors that started playing Harry Potter characters as pre-teens are all adults now.

Will it be set in the "Harry Potter" universe?
Will there be wizard love scenes? :lol:
Those folks could get up to some wild stuff.
