Although she writes under the pen name J.K. Rowling, pronounced like rolling, her name when her first Harry Potter book was published was simply Joanne Rowling. Anticipating that the target audience of young boys might not want to read a book written by a woman, her publishers demanded that she use two initials, rather than her full name. As she had no middle name, she chose K as the second initial of her pen name, from her paternal grandmother Kathleen Ada Bulgen Rowling. She calls herself Jo and has said, "No one ever called me 'Joanne' when I was young, unless they were angry." Following her marriage, she has sometimes used the name Joanne Murray when conducting personal business. During the Leveson Inquiry she gave evidence under the name of Joanne Kathleen Rowling. In a 2012 interview, Rowling noted that she no longer cared that people pronounced her name incorrectly.
Rowling was born to Peter James Rowling, a Rolls-Royce aircraft engineer, and Anne Rowling (née Volant), on 31 July 1965 in Yate, Gloucestershire, England, 10 miles (16 km) northeast of Bristol. Her mother Anne was half-French and half-Scottish. Her parents first met on a train departing from King's Cross Station bound for Arbroath in 1964. They married on 14 March 1965. Her mother's maternal grandfather, Dugald Campbell, was born in Lamlash on the Isle of Arran. Her mother's paternal grandfather, Louis Volant, was awarded the Croix de Guerre for exceptional bravery in defending the village of Courcelles-le-Comte during the First World War.
Rowling's sister Dianne was born at their home when Rowling was 23 months old. The family moved to the nearby village Winterbourne when Rowling was four. She attended St Michael's Primary School, a school founded by abolitionist William Wilberforce and education reformer Hannah More. Her headmaster at St Michael's, Alfred Dunn, has been suggested as the inspiration for the Harry Potter headmaster Albus Dumbledore.
As a child, Rowling often wrote fantasy stories, which she would usually then read to her sister. She recalls that: "I can still remember me telling her a story in which she fell down a rabbit hole and was fed strawberries by the rabbit family inside it. Certainly the first story I ever wrote down (when I was five or six) was about a rabbit called Rabbit. He got the measles and was visited by his friends, including a giant bee called Miss Bee." At the age of nine, Rowling moved to Church Cottage in the Gloucestershire village of Tutshill, close to Chepstow, Wales. When she was a young teenager, her great aunt, who Rowling said "taught classics and approved of a thirst for knowledge, even of a questionable kind," gave her a very old copy of Jessica Mitford's autobiography, Hons and Rebels. Mitford became Rowling's heroine, and Rowling subsequently read all of her books.
Rowling has said of her teenage years, in an interview with The New Yorker, "I wasn’t particularly happy. I think it’s a dreadful time of life." She had a difficult homelife; her mother was ill and she had a difficult relationship with her father (she is no longer on speaking terms with him). She attended secondary school at Wyedean School and College, where her mother had worked as a technician in the science department. Rowling said of her adolescence, "Hermione [a bookish, know-it-all Harry Potter character] is loosely based on me. She's a caricature of me when I was eleven, which I'm not particularly proud of." Steve Eddy, who taught Rowling English when she first arrived, remembers her as "not exceptional" but "one of a group of girls who were bright, and quite good at English." Sean Harris, her best friend in the Upper Sixth owned a turquoise Ford Anglia, which she says inspired the one in her books.

in which this entire book is really just the woman yelling at a cat with salad meme. (cough cough ron at crookshanks; malfoy at buckbeak; harry at sirius; snape at harry; etc.)
and WAHHHHH remus!! sirius!! james!! LILY!! cries, i will NEVER be okay with the fact that they got murdered at 21 SOBS. (must get back to rereading marauders fanfic of course of course, like lily totally had her own friends too but i digress). and of course, who could forgot HE WAS THEIR FRIEND!
also i will forever be salty that the movies did not show ANY of ron being a loyal friend and gave all his best lines to hermione! (but at least ALL of the hair looks fabulous.) HE WAS THEIR FRIEND!
crookshanks is the real unsung hero in this book ฅ^•ﻌ•^ฅ

This was not one of my favorites originally, but I have come to appreciate it more over time. It is the only one without Voldemort, but I really like Lupin and the relationship that Harry has with him and begins to develop with Sirius. It is also the last of the books where Harry is completely innocent - I feel like #4 is when it turns from children's books to more adult concepts. This one is definitely a step more mature than the first 2, but it is before Harry has lost anyone. The illustrations are amazing but it is still the stories which get me every time.

I'm reading these books to my son, having read them a number of times when I was younger. However, this is my first encounter with the illustrated versions - absolutely beautiful keepsakes!

Love Harry Potter! I think this book is the first time my kids were taught to question if someone is bad, whether they are always bad, and vice versa. I do love that in the whole Harry Potter series...there are core good guys, but even within that core, there are lessons on who to trust and when. There has always been the struggle with Snape not being a nice teacher or a nice person, but still being trusted by Dumbledore that he is a good guy. But this time, bad guys are good, but they are still labeled as bad by authorities, and pet rats are really bad. It is one of the first Harry Potter stories that makes you frustrated in the end.
I forgot how often Harry, Ron, and/or Hermionie fight or stop talking to each other. In the end, we always think of them as the three best friends, but there are whole chapters and sections when they are bickering. I think it is good for these types of conflicts to be modeled in fiction because it is true. It is also true that the friends that are upset with you, but will still have your best interest at heart and worry about you if you are in trouble are the types of friends you fight to keep.
