However, not all can be Potterheads. This was evident when a netizen had a strange idea that involved Harry Potter book. It's not clear if the person hated the books or needed some kind of relief amid the global crisis, but the Twitter user was keen to have a ‘Harry Potter book burning session.’ 

Since the comment was made on a post by Harry Potter author JK Rowling, she too noticed it and had a quirky reaction. The writer quipped that the idea was not great, because the royalties that she earns from the book would ‘vanish’ from her bank accounts if that happened. She also added that if the book was more precious, with her autograph, it would more prove more costly for, joking that her ‘teeth would fall out.’

This is not the first time that a netizen had written to JK Rowling about burning her books, after which she had responded. In  2017, some had ‘burned’ her books, apparently, after reading some article related to the author or the iconic wizard. The author had fitting responses even then. 

Last year, the news of Polish priests burning Harry Potter books had made headlines over the book ‘promoting sorcery.’ They had, however, apologised later.

Meanwhile, JK Rowling has been in the news for the attack of the United Kingdom Government amid Prime Minister Boris Johnson' aide Dominic Cummings flouting the lockdown guidelines to meet his family. 

"Your wife was ill, you thought you were infectious and you've got a kid. Those circumstances are not exceptional. They're commonplace," she tweeted on Monday. In another tweet, she wrote, "Often answering questions doesn't clear up confusion, it increases confusion' is what I'll say to the police when they want to know where I got my new labradoodle, Dominic."
