PS/SS Book Discussion Thread

Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone/Sorcerer's Stone
This thread is for the discussion of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone/Sorcerer's Stone book.

Please keep on topic to only the plot of the first book so you don't spoil any new comers to the series who haven't read any further.

Thanks for re-opening the discussion thread baileycat!

I just started getting into the whole 'Harry Potter' craze about a week ago. I'm almost finished the first book.

So far, my favorite character is 'Hagrid'. He looks dangerous and rough but has the kindest heart and wouldn't hurt a fly. So to speak...

He's someone you can trust with your life.

My favorite scene in the first book to date is when Harry, Ron, Hermione and Neville run into 'Fluffy'. The description of the dog and size and the reaction of the characters was well written, and I felt it was paralleled well in the first movie. It was just like it was written.

I think Hagrid was one of JKR favourite characters to write too.

The most loveable character you will ever meet.

I just finished reading the chapter about Norbert the dragon and how Hagrid sobbed when he had to let him go. Makes you just want to give Hagrid a big hug!

That's my plan too. Can't wait to go back to the very beginning and read Harry's (re-)introduction to the wizarding world again.

I just finished the first book. It was a great ending. I loved Hagrid's character the most, he's so emotional. I loved it.

Dumbledore is a great character. He looks like the old fool, but is much wiser then most give him credit for. I love that about his character!

Not really about the book but I was just gonna watch PS the movie and I can no longer watch that movie without the urge to cry (it's off now) lol. It's like a nostalgia movie for me I was 10 (most of us where probably around that age) when it was released so when I watch it I just feel like damn where did all the time go. Then the trio look so tiny as well which just makes it stand out so much more
