Harry Potter: Hogwarts Mystery, Year 5, Chapter 29 ( Final Preparations) - Charms Lesson "Lumos Maxima" When did you become a Potterhead?

Kids on the other hand are just discovering the series as they grow up and get old enough to begin reading the series. And then there are a few folks like me, those who never understood what the fuss was all about until they started reading the books… In fact I only started reading the series at the request of a reader who asked me for some Harry Potter themed projects. So I dug out the copy the The Sorcerer’s Stone that I had bought for my son and decided I better give it a read before trying to come up with a magical activity…fast forward a year and 7 books later…I’M HOOKED!!!!! I’ve never been so enthralled wth a series as I was with the Harry Potter collection. NEVER. It’s literary magic….
