Sorry, @Linsy I just couldn‘t hold off. The end of this book is just SO good!!! 💙🤍💙 My little Ravenclaw heart bursts with pride at the end of this book.
I adore this book. As well done as the movies are, their are just so many little, beautiful details that didn‘t make it into the movies. Well worth a read and the reread (and a few more rereads).

Linsy So true! Too many amazing details for the movies to be able to handle them all. That illustration in your enhanced edition is amazing!! I've been enjoying see the different interpretations in yours. I must admit though, I always feel a little bad for Slytherin here! 5y

GingerAntics @Linsy you‘re an amazingly compassionate person. I usually don‘t feel bad for them at all. I feel like it‘s Karma. lol 5y

I love how very mischievous Dumbledore is. I think he‘s secretly (maybe not so secretly) much more like James Potter or even the Weasley Twins (maybe that‘s why they‘ve never been expelled lol) than people would like to admit.

Linsy Haha, good point! It makes me wonder what Newt Scamander did... 5y

GingerAntics @Linsy oh I bet he got in trouble a lot, too. His animals all over. lol Dumbledore was probably just a professor then, but I can certainly see him helping out a young Newt. lol I wonder what Dumbledore taught as a professor. 5y

I couldn‘t remember how he got his cloak back. He doesn‘t lose it the movie, and I was kind of thinking maybe part of its magic was kind of like Percy Jackson‘s sword. lol

I think Dumbledore is being more encouraging of Harry‘s propensity for adventure and getting into trouble than he‘d ever admit out loud. McGonagall would be furious with him.

Nikki_E Though, she‘d secretly be proud. 5y

Linsy Me too! I honestly completely forgot this part. It reminds me of what we were talking about when Dumbledore said Hagrid could use magic to get Harry his letter. Gives me a new perspective on Dumbledore not just turning a blind eye, but actively encouraging this kind of stuff. 5y

GingerAntics @Linsy Exactly! I think he‘s cool with a little rule breaking, so long as it‘s for the greater good. lol 5y

GingerAntics @Nikki_E At first I struggled with this idea, but thinking of her in the Deathly Hallows during the Battle of Hogwarts, I think you‘re right. Where Dumbledore would have a twinkle in his eye, she‘d look very cross, but inside she‘d be thinking “good job, Potter!” lol 5y

This is one of my favourite parts of this movie, and it‘s one of my favourite parts of this book, too.

Linsy The ideas put into the slaying of a unicorn add so much depth. They didn't just kill a creature, they killed a pure and defenseless one. It makes a difference. And it draws a stark parallel between what Voldemort was trying to do that night when he tried to kill Harry. And just as in that case, there were consequences. (edited) 5y

GingerAntics @Linsy oh, I hadn‘t drawn those parallels. Harry was a pure, defenceless infant (6 month old?) and Tom tried to kill him. He basically destroyed his body. Same with the unicorn. Very philosophical. Very nice. I love that. 5y

This enhanced edition is just great. Of course, this moves. The egg twitches.

Linsy Beautiful! 5y

GingerAntics @Linsy the artwork is so beautifully done. I‘m so glad I‘ve gone on this journey (and strayed buying these enhanced edition) with you!!! 5y

Such a well told and quickly invented lie. I think we can all imagine what Dumbledore REALLY sees, especially knowing the things we find out about him in Book 7. Still, part of me thinks that whatever he sees, a pair of woollen socks is, in fact, involved. Perhaps all those things he desired in his youth, he‘s managed to dismiss so thoroughly that he really does see woollen socks. lol
#potteraday #HarryPotter #SorcerersStone #JKRowling @Linsy

Eggbeater Decent socks are not a thing to be under valued in winter. Good books and warm footwear! 5y

GingerAntics @Eggbeater exactly my thoughts! He‘s got plenty of books, but he‘s missing the nice warm socks. 5y

Linsy Maybe Ariana made them for him... (edited) 5y

GingerAntics @Linsy oh. I hadn‘t thought of that. She was devoted to him. I bet she did. She kept him in nice warm, comfy socks for all those years, then when she died he slowly ran out of willed socks. Good thinking!!! 5y

I‘m guessing in the UK (everywhere but America?) editions, it says “Potter for Prime Minister.”

Scochrane26 I have a British edition, I‘ll look. Unless they‘ve changed it in later editions. 5y

The mental image of Snape doing muggle Halloween is now firmly planted in my head. Thanks Jo.
#potteraday #HarryPotter #SorcerersStone #JKRowling @Linsy

Linsy 😂 I still don't understand why she couldn't have told the truth though. They still went to save her! I guess it was too embarrassing...? 5y

GingerAntics @Linsy maybe she knew they‘d have gotten in trouble for being rude to her, so she was trying to save Gryffindor from losing any more points than necessary. 5y

It‘s kind of sad that Charlie is pretty much never in the movies. I feel like he should get some more love.
#potteraday #HarryPotter #SorcerersStone #JKRowling @Linsy

Linsy Agreed. He is such a great character! 5y
