Malayali writer who once shoplifted Potter book draws JK Rowling's attention!

Imagine a person stealing a book and getting praise from its author! That's what has happened in the case of Reese Thomas, a Malayali assistant director and writer. Reese recently made headlines when during the release of his first book, he revealed that he once stole a Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows from a book shop as a kid and now has his own book displayed at sale at the same shop.

Quoting a news article that featured his revelation, JK Rowling wrote on her social media handle, "I know I'll be accused of encouraging book stealing by sharing this, so please don't steal books, book stealing is bad. Anyway, this is the loveliest thing and made me really happy."
JK Rowling's post
Reese took to Facebook to share his delight at Rowling finding out his story. "Finally she (JK Rowling ) read it and shared it on her social media. Years before, I did something and it has reached all of the world now, most importantly it reached her, the one and only JK Rowling, the exact person I really wished had read it was her (sic)," he posted.
