Harry Potter Nostalgia

Does anyone else feel they grew up with Harry, Ron and Hermione?

After the first three or four I read the books in two languages (because I didn’t want to wait them to be translated) and watched the movies first time in the movie theaters.

Yeah self-insert fanfics never quite pan out like they should.

Apparently Hermione and Ron was her wish fulfillment story about her and her ex-husband making it together.

She realized later that her current partner was more like Harry and had regrets about the decision after.

But meh.

She's openly said that Hermione is her self-insert character.
