I even went and read the British copy, just to really feel like one of those fans who read it first (I know I'm crazy!). It's also funny that I started from the end, before the last movie started, I read the last book, then watched the movie. A few months later and here I'm reading the first book and falling for it! You're right, it's not about magic, it's about Life.

My mother banned us from reading them so I feel like I was robbed of having that experience as a kid. I wish I'd gotten the chance to grow up with them like so many other people, but I'm still glad I got to read them.

Who's your favorite character so far? And, I love the quote you picked! It's my absolute favorite quote from the entire series and there are a lot of good quotes!Jenni Elysehttp://www.jennielyse.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9180446384835146464.post-87430915352988311542012-02-01T20:30:50.799-06:002012-02-01T20:30:50.799-06:00I just recently upstarted with the Harry Potter bo...I just recently upstarted with the Harry Potter books too and a few weeks ago FINALLY read book one (at everyone's insistence!). And I'm like you, totally in love. I'm going to be dropping by the library soon to pick up The Chamber of Secrets and get going on finishing the series. I think my favorite thing about the book, besides the wizards and magic and all that, is Harry himself. I wanted to physically reach into the book and claw the Dursleys eyes out. The sadness and longing for family in Harry is palpable and heartwrenching. Ugh. I got teary-eyed right at the beginning. <br /><br />So far I'm loving this series and looking forward to see what surprises were overlooked by the movies.<br /><br />- Asher (from <i><a href="http://paranormalindulgence.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Paranormal Indulgence</a></i>)A.
