A DREAM came true for a ‘true’ Harry Potter fan, Evanna Lynch (11), when she received a copy of the latest Harry Potter book signed by author JK Rowling, one of just a half dozen in the country.
‘The Order of the Phoenix’ was released for sale at 7.30am last Saturday, and after consultation between the Lynch family, Our Lady of Lourdes hospital and Eason’s booksellers, Evanna was allowed out of hospital for an hour to collect her book. (x)

OH MY GOD
this was in 2003
she was in the hospital for anorexia
JK Rowling then wrote to her personally
and then she got the role of Luna.
I mean if someone were to write this in a fictional story everybody would be like “that is so not believable.” 

I think it’s beautiful that she was promised the role of Luna Lovegood if she got better, to which she then went on to recover and permanently beat anorexia.

OH MY GOD

Evanna Lynch is honestly one of my heroes.

HOLY BALLS IF I WERE PROMISED SOMETHING LIKE THIS I WOULD BEAT ANYTHING. I WOULD CATCH THEM ALL, I WOULD END WORLD HUNGER, WHAT.

You are aware the person who said she was “promised the role” was entirely misinformed? Evanna was in contact with J.K. Rowling, yes, but she was never promised anything. She beat anorexia because of her own strength, and THEN went out for the role of Luna. JKR was completely shocked when she learned that Evanna had been cast.



That extra tidbit made it even better.
