JK Rowling has spent her time in lockdown by sprucing up her at-home Harry Potter-feel library – and fans were left in amazement at the sheer amount of books in her grand wood-panelled room.
The famous author, who has been recovering at her abode after suffering from a suspected case of Covid-19, informed her 14.5million followers she found the activity of colour-coding her bookshelves “soothing”.
Taking to the social media platform, the 54-year-old showed off the fruits of her labour and posted a clip of her panning a camera around her gigantic room, which houses chic impressive floor-to-ceiling shelves.
Underneath the snap, she wrote: “Rearranging books is a very soothing lockdown activity.”

She added: “To the people asking: yes, of course I’ve got Harry Potter books!”
Although fans were fascinated with the towering shelves of books, the writer, real name Joanne, added there are plenty more hardbacks in other parts of her house.
“These aren’t my only bookshelves, they’re simply the ones I decided to arrange by colour during tea breaks,” she wrote.

During the clip, she revealed her library also features a quote painted along the top of her wall.
The quote is from poem The Faerie Queene, written by Edmund Spenser, and reads: “It is the mind that maketh good of ill, that maketh wretch or happy, rich or poor.”
Her library, looking fresh from the pages of Harry Potter, was quickly applauded by her fans on the social media platform.

“Your home library is exactly what I would want to cultivate if any of my work ever sold well enough to allow for it. Good on you!” one user remarked.
While another added: “Hogwarts library or any similarity is a mere coincidence?”
And a third wrote: “This is so ridiculously aesthetically pleasing. That gold detailing too.”
