I snagged this meme - that was actually fun and I was surprised that I had read that many (okay not really many - but more than I thought)

You're not a Narnia fan?

[luckyj52587]

lol. no. Harry Potter was the first time I was ever into anything fantasy. And I actually didn't start reading Harry Potter until the 4th book came out because I thought I wouldn't like it, since I never liked fantasy in the past.

My sister read the first two or three Narnia books for me when I was a kid and I loved it. It was her and her kids that kept talking about Harry Potter so in 2005 - right after I finished my degree I read the first five HP books (in Danish) in a month and then in the summer when book six came out I went and bought it in English.
It really does say something ab out JKR writing skills when someone like you fell in love with HP even though you don't like fantasy!

Ikr?

My brother (who's 3 years younger than me) read the HP books, and he really liked them. When the 4th book came out it was summer vacation for us, and I was really bored so I started reading it....remember how the 4th book starts, with that little bit with the Riddles? I read that short part and then immediately started with Book 1 (I could never, ever read a book series out of order, lol).

But yeah, I mean.....I was hooked just from reading that first little part of Book 4.

I'm gonna snag this. I saw this meme a while ago and I'm pretty sure my total was better back then. I'm not sure how that works :/
