Harry Potter is and has always been an escape for me. When I was younger, I had to deal with the divorce of my parents and the feuding, going to numerous new schools and the Harry Potter series would help me forget it all. I would sit in my room for days over summer until I finished a book. I read until the birds started chirping outside my window and I saw the sunrise. I've read every book and watched all of the movies multiple times and every time I dive in, I learn something new. I even dressed up in a Wizarding world costume and attended the midnight showing of the last two Deathly Hallows movies. Harry Potter and Deathly Hallows pt 1 came out on my 19th birthday, November 19th. I've been obsessed with everything Harry Potter for a long time and my boyfriend doesn't know the extent of it but I've just been living in these books for years. The details and the way J.K. Rowling weaved all of them together made me feel like every bit of it was just as real as my life. Harry Potter is a whole other world.
