Harry Potter means some of the best times of my life. I've met loads of wonderful new people, experienced events I might never have done before--and of course wish I could have experienced others, like the world premieres :) From the moment my sister introduced me to the world, I was hooked.  I could not put the books down, and it was because the world was so enchanting, such an intriguing place of "What if's" that I had to stay there as long as I could.  As the books progressed, I realized more and more of my friends were following as well, and we would go to the midnight book releases, where we met more fabulous people, whom we shared movies with, and so on.  I'm so fortunate to have some of my closest friends today because of our love of this series.  Not only is one of the series' main themes about friendship, but it's inspired a true camaraderie among people who might otherwise have never met.  And that is the greatest.
