The same applies to me. Harry Potter didn’t get me into reading since I only read it last year (I’m really late to the party). I actually read the first three books in April (when I was spoiled that Snape would kill Dumbledore and would then be redeemed *haha*) and had to stop because school started again. Embarrassingly enough, I had a hundred problems with Harry and I guess I was underwhelmed with the characters (except Sirius because I had no expectations) but once I had a breather of a little less than three months, I came in with zero expectations and I LOVED all the characters, especially Harry. Since then I went to London to go to the Making of Harry Potter and have dedicated a large amount of my allowance to merch. I just don’t have the words to express how much it means to me but I know that I came out of that experience with characters I’ll take with me everywhere.
What can I say? Hogwarts is my home.
Plus I now know all the HP references and I can’t get spoiled!!!
What effect has Harry Potter made on your life and how much does it mean to you?
Well, I´m not one of the people that Harry Potter got them into reading, because I read it when I was 13 and I´ve been a reader since I was around 7 haha.
But it definately got me into hardcore fangirling and I´ve been obsessed with it ever since. I went to England last year to visit London (and buy Cursed Child the day it came out, I was very excited, but what a dissapointment), I went to the studios and other places and towns where they shooted something :) And this year I went to Scotland to see more places where they shooted.
I don´t really now how to explain what it means to me, I just love it with all my heart, I love the characters she carefuly created because each of them have a great story instead of just talking about Harry, Ron and Hermione she tells the stories of hundreds of other characters which make it way more realistic and amazing.
I just love Harry Potter so much, I can´t even explain (if you don´t believe just come to my room hahaha, my bedcover is from Harry Potter, my pillows are also Harry Potter, I have a big shelf for Harry Potter books/things...)
