Being swept into the wizarding world for the first time alongside Harry Potter in book 1 was a truly memorable and magical experience unlike any other. Starting out as a children's book series intended to be released in 7 parts, and awaiting each book's release became a highpoint in my childhood and adolescence. The excitement of finally having the newest book, looking at the beautiful cover art by Marie Grande Pre, and delving into the deep and involving story was a unique experience i can't say i've felt in any other book series. Going to the Burrow and spending time with Ron and Hermione and the Weasley family, exploring Hogwarts castle, and the train rides on the Hogwartz express were so absorbing it felt as if i was there in the story experiencing the situations Harry was. It's been a privilege to be able to grow up with Harry Potter, and i am excited to share its magic with my children in the future.
