Read, because everyone said I should.
I understand that this series is loved by many. I didn't dislike it, but I didn't fall in love with it either. The story is well crafted, but it did adopt some writing elements that pulled me from the story. Not to go into spoilers, but when one character stops in the middle of the story to explain everything to another character (and myself the reader), that drives me crazy. Overall though I understand that this is my quirk, and I can completely understand why so many have found so much joy through the series.

Read the Harry Potter series for the first time as a 23 yr old adult and found it very enjoyable and easy to read as an adult. The writing style is written maturely even if the content is childish and the books were super fun and fast to get through. Similar to movies. The series were ended beautifully and the plot lines made sense and got to the point. It was fun and brought me back to my childhood version of reading. Will reread one day in the future for sure.
