It was so long ago that I finished the Harry Potter series I could not even tell you what the ending was. I do know I was working a track meet and it was long time for me to close the gate but I continued to sit there so I could finish the book and I got a really good sunburn
Mark was given the first book as a Christmas gift and he didn't really read fiction but he had an assignment to read fantasy for a class at middle school. We started reading book one together and then we finally got into it and he read the whole series and so did I. MY granddaughter loves it. For the past several years the Omaha Symphony has played a Potter movie as part of their film series. I have given her tickets everytime.
My husband and I are currently doing a read along of the same book – I was so excited when he wanted to do it because he likes reading but not nearly as much as me. It’s been a really lovely way to connect more and spend time reading instead of watching a show together. So I agree with the power of sharing stories with others 🥰
I love that! Usually when hubby and I share the same story it’s because I’m reading it aloud to him. But yes, it’s such a great way to connect and spend time together, especially after 30 years of marriage!
Often the conversations we have about books become more meaningful and insightful than the books alone could ever. I'm glad this was your experience with your daughters! Regardless of the differing opinions. ;-)
I love the purple bear!

That’s a really cool gift for your granddaughter!
