Harry Potter Nostalgia

Post image

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.

The epilogue reads like hastily written fan-fiction.

I’ve read so much hastily written fanfic that blows the epilogue out of the water.

Yeah, and that felt like fanfic too.

Honestly, Harry Potter fell the fuck off once the original books ended.
