Day Twelve: Harry Potter

From the Thirty Day Challenge: Your thoughts or opinions about Harry Potter.

When the Harry Potter craze first exploded, I wasn't allowed to read the books or watch the movies.  Several years after it came out I watched "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone" because my then-boyfriend owned the movie.  I thought it was entertaining and I really enjoyed it!  What struck me in the story was the element of how Harry's deceased mother's love protected him beyond her grave against his deadliest enemies.  I drew a connection between that and my personal beliefs about God's love for me.

I've seen bits and pieces of some of the other movies but I could take or leave really following the series.
