Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s stone

Well, everybody knows the legendary story of wizard boy, Harry Potter. The boy whose parents has die by you-know-who and lives with awful Dursley`s family, when he got the letter from Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

I have to confess, I have never read this, one of the most popular book in the world; even I have read a lot other books. So now I had an excellent chance again educate myself. And did I enjoy my readings? I don’t even know.

Well I have seen many, MANY times all movies, so I knew what wait. Maybe it was little bit boring, when I knew what happen next. And It was very disturbing when all characters of the book get the movie`s look. I bet, I would enjoy more reading if I weren´t see the movies. But I was not- clever child and never get exited Harry Potter- books.

But there is one thing I wondering: how did Rowling imagine all this stuff?! All spells, the history, the whole new world! I have to give applause to Rowling, because everyone can`t create the most popular book series and then become a millionaire. And of course delight the whole generation with her books.

I have heard a lot about people who has been a child when the first book published and graduate at collage when the last book published. I think that is so amazing: grow up with the book series and at the same time with characters of book. Now, when I´m a little bit late with this Harry Potter- mania, it doesn`t feel the same. I don`t have to wait years to get the next book, I can (If I like to) read whole series in two weeks. There`s no point to do that because all excitement is already gone.

Or, maybe I just don`t want read the books, because I would cry, just like in movies.
