Growing up with the books: I was in Grade 4 at the time and the teacher I had in Grade 3 lent me the book, since she wanted to know if it was something that her students would like. Then my mom gave me the three books that were out at the time as a christmas present. I already read a lot of books, but it probably got me more into fantasy books, since I was running out of mythology and fairy tale books to read. I certainly remember looking up to Hermione, since she was a lot like me. I also remember reading lots of fanfic for it, though it was probably my third fandom after Pokemon and Digimon. My favourite book in the series was GoF, and at the end of it, there seemed to be so much potential for what would happen in the next book. OotP really disappionted me, and I sort of dropped out of that fandom. I don't know if I'll get the 7th book or not.
