I googled this...you're a Harry Potter fan????
Why do adults think it's okay to be a fan of that? A few years back when Harry Potter was a thing, I often saw people on public transport reading those books, and they didn't even change the covers or try to hide it was Harry Potter. Weird!

Harry Potter would be 38 today were he a real person. That's pretty sobering.

Of all the things to be embarrassed about, I really don't think reading should be one of them. :P

Why should I, they're children's books. And as far as I can tell not even good ones. Children should read classics like The wind in the willows or The hobbit, not this derivative Harry Potter nonsense which might get them interested in black magic. People will regard you as an immature loser. I know it's not popular to say this here, but gaming is still heavily stigmatized.

And I'll leave it at that.
and the black magic thing. XD You know, I've noticed a sharp increase in the amount of 12 year olds joining Satanic Cults since those books came out, so you might be onto something. :P
