    These books were my entire childhood/teenage years and they were also my security blanket during some really rough times. I may not agree with some of the stuff she says these days, but I will always respect the mind that created the world I was able to escape into for many, many years. I still listen to the audiobooks to this day and I'm 29. And I plan on reading them all to my children. Thank you JK for getting me through so much.

      Harry Potter was the 1st book I ever read solo. I was about 5 and it had just been released in the UK. A friend of my Mom brought it back as a gift for me thinking I would grow into it. I learned to read almost instantly because I loved the 1st chapter so much and didn't want to wait for my mom to read me more. Now I am reading it with my 10 year old daughter. Love Harry Potter

      RoisinV I am in the same boat. My mom went through A lot and as a child I experienced a lot with her. One day in the summer of 3rd grade my mom took me to the library and told me to pick a book. It so happen I picked HarrY Potter ST and I have been connected since. I am 29 with two kids and I will always have a love for JK Rowling and her incredible and magical writing. The books took me away from the hard times.

    The Harry Potter world remains to this day one of the most incredible, well crafted fantasy worlds out there. The reason why it works so well is because, even though it's fiction and magic, it feels realistic. If a world like that really excted this is the way it could exist and remain hidden. It blows my mind and I'm so happy we're getting to see more of that world in other times with Fantastic Beasts.

Before I didn't even like Harry Potter, for example, when it had a Harry Potter movie on the TV and my mum asked me to see it I was like "Oh no, I don't like it!!" I got as a present the three first books as a present for my birthday and all I have to say is that I read the first book in one and a half hour. I read the rest of the books and then I saw the movies I think I made a good choice to first read the books and then see the movies. Now I think that when I get older I can say that Harry Potter has been my childhood.

      What? Have you even read the books . The movies weren't bad at all. Legends like Alan rickman , Gary Oldman , Maggie Smith and the so many others came under one roof to create them. They found new young talent. And I think those movies were the best graphic audio visual we potterheads could have asked for . They didn't show everything in the book and no movie ever does. Take any other franchise for that matter. But that doesn't mean the movies were bad . The only thing JK Rowling should regret is Cursed Child . She shouldn't allow a movie for that .
