If I had to put my money on it, I would say that almost everyone has seen or read Harry Potter. Maybe not the whole series, but maybe one movie, a few scenes or even a few sentences of one of the seven books. However, if you are anything like me, you have seen Harry Potter more times than you can count and have dedicated so much free time to read and reread and reread the series until your eyes can't stay open. Something about Harry Potter has made me addicted. Some people think that it's really weird that I love Harry Potter so much, but I really do not care. Harry Potter is easily the best fantasy series there is up until this point.
Don't get me wrong, I am also a hardcore Hunger Games, Twilight, and Divergent fan, but Harry Potter takes the cake for being the best fantasy series. I don't know what exactly about it makes the series so good, but I can think of at least twenty reasons right now of why it is superior movie and book series. For example, friendship, love, death, heartbreak and of course magic are just a few things that we get to experience whenever we read or watch Harry Potter. The characters are also so relatable, well maybe not the whole wizard part. But Hermione, Ron and Harry have undeniable friend chemistry that anyone can understand and sympathize with in their everyday lives.
Harry Potter is also just so much fun. When you watch a movie or read a book, you are escaping reality for a little bit. J.K Rowling gave us the ability to transport ourselves to Hogwarts for hours on end. It's so fun to watch all the things that happen. Harry Potter makes school look so fun. I don't know about you, but I rather be at Hogwarts then in my dorm room most days. The moving staircases, secret rooms, and ghosts that wander the school proves to provide the characters with mischief and fun throughout their years at Hogwarts...like are they ever in class. In every movie, there are like three scenes of them in an actual class. So, Hogwarts in my kind of school.
Harry Potter might be over for now, but it will always hold a special place in my heart. And if they were ever to remake the movies, I better get the role of Hermione.
