The stories we love best do live in us forever. So whether you come back by page or by the big screen, Hogwarts will always be there to welcome you home.
I miss that feeling of not knowing what was going to happen and wish I could read these books with new eyes once more.
Dammit, my childhood... bring it back :'(
I must have missed something with the HP stuff.
Harry Potter started after you were an adult. It's different for those who read it as kids.
I didn't even read this comment until after I had already written this:
"I didn't grow up a huge Harry Potter fan, but so many I did have. And I almost look bad with sadness that I didn't grow up with Harry as others did.
For many, Harry Potter grew up as they did, and so he's a memento to their quest from childhood to adulthood.
Beautiful series. Evidence that one great work can change generations. "
you're so right. different for those who read it as kids. VERY different.
