Diary of a Harry Potter Addict

by Kerin Morataya, Darby Romeo

A humorous take on a serious issue, Diary of a Harry Potter Addict captures the struggles of an anonymous Harry Potter fan coming to grips with life post-Harry Potter. Part diary, part clinical narrative, the book spans several years in the character's life, from the moment they first pick up Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone through their exploration of ways in which to manage - and eventually make the most of - their chronic Harry Potter addiction. Utilizing diary entries, original artwork and interviews with members of the International Quidditch Association and the Harry Potter Alliance, the book offers alternative ways to ease the pain of saying good-bye to old friends and goes great with a swig of Butterbeer. "An essential part of any respectable Harry Potter collection... A national treasure." -Antiques Roadshow "Not good. BRILLIANT!" -Rupert Grint (as Ron Weasley) "A very interesting literary approach to the subject of Harry Potter Series End Disorder (HPSED)... These women are dangerous." -Dr. Juana Fuchenstein, DFA "I laughed... I found it a loving tribute to the fanbase and the running dialogue is great. I need to mention that the cover is awesome!" -Josh Guerrero, ETS

Diary of a Harry Potter Addict by Darby Romeo and Kerin Morataya

This book talks about ways to get past "HPSED" or Harry Potter Series Ending Disorder. Rabid Harry Potter fans can use this "self-help" book to figure out ways of moving on past the end of the Harry Potter books. Humorous, especially to Harry Potter fans who would get all the references, I would have liked to see more of a true diary format that a self-help guise. I borrowed this book from the Kindle Owner's Lending Library.

I think that it was funny and kind of nutty but in a good way.

It was fun and enjoyable to read. I could relate soooo much :)))

[Azrael · Rating 2 out of 5]

So this one is a short read, but not as fun as I had hoped. I wish there was more of the diary entries as they were the better parts. It had some funny parts, and also some interesting ideas and elements, but overall it was very lacklustre and underwhelming; could have been so much more.

It started out fun and light-hearted. Ended a little long-winded and preachy. Still worth a read.

[Caroline · Rating 3 out of 5]

Funny little story about an anonymous fan trying to deal with an addiction to all things Harry Potter. I liked it, it was witty and unique.
