I, like many other people, am a fan of Harry Potter. I will forever say
that the book series is what got me back into reading at the age of 13 after I
had hit a slump after reading all of Roald Dahl's books and finding nothing else
that I was particularly interested in. I started with book four, had no idea
what was going on to begin with, but found the story so enthralling that I
continued to read until I was hooked.
My Aunt thankfully had all the books that were out at the time and I
was able to borrow them to read the entire series. That year I think I read all
four books four times, in between reading books for school and reading other
books I found in the High School library. Mum saw my love for the series and
bought a set for my birthday that year, which were all re-read again by Easter.
I luckily didn’t have long to wait until book five came out and I saved all my
money to be able to buy it before talking my mother into getting up early so I
could get to the shop the moment it opened to get my hands on a copy.
