My god, I love this book. It’s the best movie adaptation as well, in my opinion. We get teenage sass and a wonderfully compelling story. Now that I’m closer in age to Remus and Sirius, what I wouldn’t giiivvveee for more details about their foursome. The glimpses into marauders past might be the best part of HP lore. Crushed this book in 24 hours because it’s so comforting to me. See ya again next year, old friend.

Any Harry Potter book is always like coming home. Rereading it for the gazillionth time and the magic is as it was the first time I read it.
