I love Stephen Fry's narration! It brings a whole new level of cozy to the experience as well as immersion.
Even though I don't approve of the author, I can still find comfort in retreating to the world of Harry Potter and escape reality for a bit. HP has a special place in my heart, and the books are beautifully written.

I haven’t read these since the first time over 10 years ago in school! I forgot just how fast paced and adventurous the first is despite building the world of magic for us.

I read the Harry Potter series over a decade ago, and wasn't super impressed then, and am utterly offended by them now. JKR is an abhorrent transphobe, and her non-white characters are nothing but 1-dimensional, racist tropes.

Obligatory disclaimer: the author is a terrible person with terrible views.

I’ve read this book several dozen times at a minimum, and it truly never lets me down. Reading it as an adult, the nostalgia apparently makes me cry a lot! Who knew! So glad that Hogwarts is always here to welcome me home.
