Harry Potter is my escape from life, from the stresses and difficulties of every day. It's such a comforting world where friends are loyal, ordinary people are incredible heroes (Neville Longbottom, anyone?!), and the bad guys are just straight-up bad. Every time I read the books, I get to feeling like the characters are my friends. The lessons about courage, friendship, loyalty, and persistence leap off the page. JK Rowling is a brilliant story-teller, and I've enjoyed every bit of my experience in her magical world.
