Why Harry Potter Will Soon Be A Classic

"Dark and difficult times lie ahead Harry. Soon we must all choose between what is right, and what is easy"

- Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore

With the 7th Harry Potter movie just released in theaters, the entire world is reminded once again why this story will be popular for generations to come.

I first started reading Harry Potter when I was in 3rd grade. My favorite teacher to this day began reading the Sorcerer's Stone to the class. I was frustrated that it was taking so long to get through the story in class so my mom bought me my own paperback version of the book. Despite struggling with the very British names, like Hermione and Severus, I immediately fell in love with Hogwarts and the wizarding world.

This series, although though to be for children, has very dark and adult content within. I remember reading the Goblet of Fire during the week of its release, and having a little bit of trouble falling asleep after reading the cemetery scene with you-kn0w-who.

J.K Rowling is one of the most imaginative writers of her time. She has created an alternate world and a saga that has action, romance, tragedy, mystery, and comedy all wrapped up into one.

When The Deathly Hallows Pt. 2 is released in theaters, and I see it, my childhood will officially be over. I find that this is what really makes this series so amazing. That I am marking the milestones in my life by it.

I just got chills watching this:
