    Radcliff probably took his inspiration from Harry Potter, since it was a global sensation at the time and literally every kid read them.

    Except me. I thought I was too old, and thus too cool, to be reading Harry Potter. So I didn’t read it till I was like 23, and significantly less cool.

      I never read them as they were after my time too. But when I was 25 I was driving through the middle of nowhere in Oregon and saw a book in the road. Turned around, stopped and picked it up, and it was the first Harry Potter. I read it. It was okay.

        We’ve been putting the audiobooks on for car rides with the kids. It’s been good for that. And I’m using a friend’s audible account and she bought them long before we all knew JK was a cunt.

        My Kindle has copies that I found on the high seas though.

        Mostly slash fiction.
