When the first HP book came out I was in eighth grade, and my english teacher brought it in ever Friday morning to read to us. I remember the first day she brought it in and passed it around the room for all of us to look at.
I took one look at the cover and instantly thought it would be the most boring thing in the world.
By the end of the first chapter, I was hooked and looked forward to english class every friday for the rest of the year.
I didn't even think it was going to be a series until I was in high school and happened to catch sight of the book in one of those airport bookstores. I was with my dad on the way to California, and I freaked out and picked it up and demanded that he get it for me.
He grumbled because it was a hardcover, and asked me to wait until it came out in paperback, but I refused to wait and told him that it was a life-and-death matter, so he got it for me.
Man, HP was freaking amazing.

I'm myena
15 year old female and I live in the netherlands.
I like the book elantris.
it's a very complex fantasy book with much politics.
but it's still a very good story.
It was also very detailed and I like the characters.
if you read it you're introduced in a whole new world with other cultures.
that's one of the points why this book is so interesting.

My name is Mysti. You can call me that or Ilia.
I am a 17 year old girl living in Southern California.
The book that fallowed me. And stuck to me would probably be Green. A story of a girl who had lost all of her family, and was alone. A fire made her blind. Soot in her eyes. And yet she would not cry to wash the soot out. Its a heart warming story, that makes you cry. Absolutely understandable. You understand the characters, the pain. Its wonderful.

I am a 16 year old male and I live in the state of Maine. I would have to say that one book that has always stuck with me is 20,000 Leagues Under The Sea by Jules Verne. Even though when I first read it I didn't understand it, now that I have read it once every year as I got older, I understood more and more from it and it is quite an extraordinary book.
