Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (Harry Potter #1) | 
#OnThisDay in 1997 a new children's book was published in a very small print run. Of the 500 books printed, 300 were sent to libraries. If you happen to have one of these 500 books, it could probably buy you a house - one recently sold for $471,000. In the years following that first print run, the world fell in love, and over 120 million copies have been sold. You simply can't deny the magic of the boy who lived. #HistoryGetsLIT
If you look closely enough you can see the Easter egg my tattoo artist threw in there. Hint: left side of the top book ⚡️#harrypotter #bookworm #tattoos
Harry Potter was totally a world I used to escape to, along with many other books
pickBk4 of June & Bk1 of #JoysOfJune #readathon is done. This weekend was a bust health wise so I reread the 1st Potter book on audio as a #comfortread When I‘m feeling sick, reading the books or watching the movies always makes me feel better.🤷🏻♀️At least I read one book so far! You all know the story so I won‘t go into that but I will say no matter how many times I read them I still enjoy them. #BookspinBingo #SeriesRead2022 #BigJuneReadathon
Anyone else seen this artist‘s work?

My daughter (10 years old) is trying out the series so I thought I'd give it a go with her so I'll know what she's talking about when she tells me all about it lol, but also to see what all the fuss is about.
Moving on to the Harry Potter section of my bookshelves in my #BookshelfTour
shelf 19/21 and shelf 2/3 designated for Harry Potter 😬
I have 16 complete sets of Harry Potter and 2 in progress sets 🪄💙💚💛❤️⚡️

I recently updated my bedroom and the key addition from Dillon, my almost husband (13 days 🙀), was the hanging of the Mirror of Erised. It‘s been leaning against walls since we moved in a year ago. He knows that he can likely never top that gift as it will always be the best gift ever given. I wanted it for so long and never would have bought it myself. It is beyond lovely! #mirroroferised
pickSo admittedly I didn't need another copy of Harry Potter and The Sorcerer's Stone but this illustrated one was too gorgeous to pass up. And it's always fun for a reread 🦉

1. I'm kind of cheating by saying lots of characters from Harry Potter!
2. Strong - annoying supporting characters are the worst!
Thanks for the tag @RaeLovesToRead @Kshakal and @TheSpineView #two4tuesday
1. The Harry Potter series. All of the supporting characters were wonderful and made the books great.
2. Strong.

Currently re-reading the Deathly Hallows and then our read along will be finished! Lily's sacrifice was an easy choice for her, she did it without hesitation. #Courageous #MayMoms @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks
pickMy girl got impatient with me reading her a chapter a night and got on with the job herself! She was so sure she had it all figured out & I got such a huge kick out of her delight and astonishment when the penny finally dropped! I'm also kinda proud she's the kind of gal who takes a book to a restaurant! She is now on to the next book & has requested a Potter themed birthday AND the illustrated editions! Pottermania has returned to my life! 🤣🤣🤣
Watching the Harry Potter films with the kids and @TheWolfbehindTheEyes . It reminded me of this on fb that I found hilarious. Had to share. #litsyhumour #harrypotter #hogwarts #witchcraft #wizadry

Had to also share where my favorite wizard went to school.
Finally got around to getting the MinaLima HP editions and they are absolutely beautiful. ✨
My babies were chosen during the wand ceremony at Ollivander‘s and it was absolutely magical. 🪄 Then, we went all around Hogsmeade and Diagon Alley as they cast interactive spells. A definite highlight of our trip!
Went to Hogwarts yesterday and it was incredible … and “Forbidden Journey” was quite the ride experience! 🧹🧙🏻⚡️ I‘m in awe of the Wizarding World!
This was when I first was reading it my favorite book that I have and Still is in my top 3 I did finish the book but did not ready the other books because I had other books I wanted to read but when I was reading this book I liked it a lot but I started ready the percy jackson and I think I got more Into that but in the end I still did enjoy the Harry Potter book
I'm so glad I never got into the books, haven't finished the video and just, wow (and it's not just her hp series with problems, makes sense ofc)

"It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live"
It takes a great deal of bravery to stand up to our enemies, but just as much to stand up to our friends.
"To the well organized mind, death is but the next great adventure"
"There is always happiness, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light"
*Headless for privacy - my photography is bad but not that bad!
After having her photo taken with Harry's wand today, my 7 year old finally decided she wanted to start on Potter! So her bedtime story tonight was the first chapter of the first book - I loved reading it to her and she was totally captivated! I hope this is the start of a wonderful experience for both of us.
Apparently every March, I start a reread of Harry Potter. So I‘ve listened to the first 2 this week. I also bought a new game for my Switch so I‘ve been doing a lot of #AudioGaming
#BookReport - Finished 5 audiobooks and 2 physical books
Currently listening to Lady Darby and reading Thursday Murder Club
#WeeklyForecast - Start my pile of #LMPBC books! I‘ve just been too exhausted after work to pick up books. 😔 I‘m also behind on reviews 😬
pick2022 re-read by audiobook. Helping the commute go faster.

📚 Tagged! I love the Hogwarts library!

#ItHadToBeYou Day 20: We are definitely #Crushin on our new guest straight from Singapore. Snickers is staying with us while her dad gets his own place here in the UAE. She loves to read! My kind of gal.
pickI always feel like I am coming home when I read these books… can‘t wait to continue my magical journey!
Best part of my day… reading my Harry Potter chapter! 🤓
It is honestly infuriating to see book burnings in this day and age. Really? What good do you honestly think you are doing? But...thank you, Joseph Wilkerson, for making me laugh at the end of your article. Well done. Thank you for alleviating the frustration and highlighting the ridiculousness of this line of thought with your excellent reference.

Decided to reread this chapter a day style!
pickReturning to this much beloved story since countless reads as a child, feels like stepping back into the imagination of my former self, and being greeted by old friends. The nostalgia that this book evokes will forever be with me 🖤⚡
pickRe-reading the Harry Potter books again since I haven't since I was a kid. I will be logging it, but for all the books I will only put the rating- it's Harry Potter - which will all be 5 stars because I am in love with the series. Just logging for my own info. But if you haven't picked it up yet.. why? Every one has their fav book, but everyone is a 5 star! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
I'm sort of planning on not setting any reading goals, challenges, or plans for the year......anyone else worn out by it after so many years of goodreads challenges?
One of my goals this year is to listen to the Harry Potter series, so here goes nothing!
Fantasy is not my jam and I tried reading these years ago and couldn‘t get through it.
