Why People Love Harry Potter
You can’t say
that your childhood is fantastic if you haven’t read a book or
two of Harry Potter. You can see all the book covers in
this website.
The popular series of books written by J.K. Rowling is loved by
many, and it has evolved from novels to popular cinema shows.
With magic
spells, cakes, witches, wizards, serpents, and magical trains,
one won’t know what to dislike about the series. The story does
not end with the seven books. Until now, a lot of fans are still
rereading the books, and there are even people who add series
after series and make them into theater plays. Here are the
reasons why people love Harry Potter so much and why you should
too.
Why Start Reading Harry’s Adventures Today
1. You Can Relate To It
If you are
currently a student or have been a student once in your life,
you can sympathize with Harry with regards to the massive book
spells and the amount of work that he needs to do to pass his
wizarding tests. You can read more about NEWTS and OWLS here:

If you are a
unique kind, you can also relate to his circumstances, which
were an orphan at an early age, and everyone dislikes him
because a lot of weird things is happening when a muggle is
around him, and he receives letters from owls and giants. Harry
is not hard to like at all, and his experiences, such as
difficulty with girls, dealing with friends, an extraordinary
amount of homework, anyone can certainly relate to him at a
deeper level.
2. Complexity of Characters
You will
never honestly know the heart of each character in this series
unless you read the whole seven books. You might think that Ron
likes Lavender, but he ends up with his best friend instead. You
will never know if
Snape’s
character
is a traitor or if he’s protecting Harry all along.
Some
characters seem like pure evil like Voldemort, but you can
sympathize with his unhappy childhood. There are characters such
as Narcissa Malfoy, who might be the Dark Lord’s ally at first
glance, but she is protecting Harry all along. The good and evil
might be drawn clearly, but the characters and the factors that
shape them are all gray. In real life, you should never judge a
person with just his deeds. He has his reasons for doing what he
does and believing the things that he understands.
3. Authority
Authority in
this context is that the author knows where the story is headed,
and the reader has to go with the flow. There’s this little
sense of certainty that the author knows the middle name of
Harry’s grandfather, and you can trust the wizarding history is
accurate. This is because the story is interconnected, and you
can relate to all the chapters when you read the first books
that she has written.
You can trust
J.K. that Harry’s destiny will be great, but there are
roadblocks and bumps in his journey that he needs to conquer to
become stronger. Get to know more J.K. here:

If you want
to get away from stupid politics, global warming, or whether the
prices of oil are rising by the minute, then the comfort that
this book provides might be what you need.
4. Written Like in the Muggle World
The entire
series is funny, and J.K. wrote it in such a way that kids and
adults can easily relate. There are those broomsticks and
cleaner advertisements that people often see in the muggle
world. The humor, such as having an aunt who is an accountant
but no one is talking about her much in the magical world, is
also recognizable.
It is easier
for anyone to be riding the trains to Hogwarts and getting
cauldron cakes. The way the Weasley twins also talk and deal
with everyone is a lot of fun. There is also plenty of mystery,
such as basilisks hiding in the chamber of secrets waiting to be
uncovered. If you can’t get enough of the puzzle, you can play
the game
Harry Potter
Murder Mystery Party,
where plenty of secrets are waiting to be uncovered.
Fans can’t get enough of Harry’s adventures. If you have finished reading the series, the good news is that there are movies that you can watch. If you are also finished with the film, you can instead play games and uncover more mysteries and storylines of the characters.
