Then and Now: Harry Potter Throwback for my 28th Birthday

 It's pretty unbelievable that so much time has passed. During my library sale hunt I managed to collect the Harry Potter series. My beloved copies are all in my childhood home but I plan to reread the series. Today I remembered for my birthday my parents took me to the Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone primier, and from then on it was a tradition to see the movies come out which were around November until the first Dumbledore died, then I recall the movies coming out during the summer. I have a VHS and DVD copy of Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone.  When we came out of the movie theater, a reporter approached me and asked me how I liked the movie and complimented me, saying I looked like Hermoine Granger. To a kid with little to no self esteem that meant a lot to me, my hair was fruffy like Hermoine's in the first movie and I also wore glasses. I carried books with me wherever I went.
