I've never been into the Harry Potter books, I always thought they were for children, but there are some adults that read them and with the recent auction price for $227,000 shows that people really love this stuff.
A 1997 first edition of “Harry Potter & The Philosopher’s Stone” annotated by J.K. Rowling sold for £150,000 ($227,000) at a London auction Tuesday.
Two bidders battled it out for the work before the hammer finally came down, triggering a round of applause at the Sotheby’s auction house.

The book contains commentary and 22 of Rowling’s own original illustrations.
The lot formed part of a sale of books annotated by 50 British and Commonwealth contemporary writers, raising a combined total of £439,200.
