For my first week of the Harry Potter challenge I started right from the beginning with the books, and wow did It make me feel very young again! I forgot how much I loved this series of books so much.
So we meet Harry Potter who was taken in by His Auntie & Uncle, The Dursleys, Very horrible people who are very selfish and take a very dislike to Harry right from the start..things just wasn't going to be normal for Harry of course, He is a potter and is a Wizard and is soon at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, the best for him. He soon makes some wonderful friends Ron Weasley and
Hermione Granger, who would of thought, they would be best friends for 7 years?


I adored this book so much, I loved the magic in this book and reading all about Hogwarts just wished that I was able to go myself, it seems so fun! The friendship between Harry, Ron & Hermione is just adorable and great that they are all so close and get on really well.
I want my very own Hedwig Owl for sure, she just sounds so adorable and being a fluffy white owl is just amazingly cute!

I do think everyone does love these books, I would be very surprised if people didn't. I certainly love them for sure. J.K Rowling certainly knows how to get the readers hooked and makes you feel the magic inside you.

To all my readers, what was your favourite part of Harry Potter & The Philosopher's Stone?

So I have recently just booked tickets to the Harry Potter Studio Tour for me,my sister Lois and my friend Zoe and I came up with the idea of refreshing my memory of the most famous 7 books and that I try and read all of the books before I go to the Tour on the 15th July.
I have adored the Harry Potter series ever since they came out, I always one of the first ones queuing up at my local supermarkets at midnight buying the next book in the series and always finishing in like couple of days after staying up reading them till silly o'clock in the morning... It was what us young ones did when we was 11/12 years old eh?
