'Minerva was the Roman goddess of warriors and wisdom. William McGonagall is celebrated as the worst poet in British history. There was something irresistible to me about his name, and the idea that such a brilliant woman might be a distant relative of the buffoonish McGonagall.' - J.K. Rowling Pottermore Presents is a collection of J.K. Rowling's writing from the Pottermore archives: short reads originally featured on pottermore.com with some exclusive new additions. These eBooks, with writing curated by Pottermore, will take you beyond the Harry Potter stories as J.K. Rowling reveals her inspiration, intricate details of characters' lives and surprises from the wizarding world. These stories of heroism, hardship and dangerous hobbies profile two of the Harry Potter stories' most courageous and iconic characters: Minerva McGonagall and Remus Lupin. J.K. Rowling also gives us a peek behind the closed curtains of Sybill Trelawney's life, and you'll encounter the reckless, magical-beast-loving Silvanus Kettleburn along the way.

I was hoping to find Draco's post in this one. I've already read it, yes, but it would be nice to see that Draco was included in one of these three — oh, but sure, let's add freaking Kettleburn, but not Draco.
Minerva's bit is beautiful, though. It's one of the few pieces from the “new Harry Potter stuff” that I actually, genuinely enjoy and love.
Who is looking for the life Stories of some HP characters, this is a must read. <3
I honestly didn't care for this book too much. I enjoyed the back story about Minerva McGonagall because she is by far my favorite character (tied with Luna) in the series. Without her biography I would have given this one star.
This also has a misleading title. However I prefer the other Short Stories from Hogwarts better.
