pottermore ills

(I don't have a Pottermore account, but I've been following the posts at [livejournal.com profile] ontd_hogwarts [you have to be a member to see them] and the sudden flood of information is enough to make one go insane. Much of EA is now obsolete, which is fine, if a bit discouraging. There's just . . . so much backstory all of a sudden. Minerva! Flitwick! Sprout! Ollivander! The Sorting Hat! The Slytherin prefect's speech! And this is just the beginning. I'm not sure how to deal with this. Is it canon? Is it a paratext? Should I even care?)
