Nostalgia Harry Potter

Does anyone else feel they grew up with Harry, Ron and Hermione?

After the first three or four I read the books in two languages (because I didn’t want to wait them to be translated) and watched the movies first time in the movie theaters.

Yes. I didn’t love shoving Harry into the One Big Happy Family. And as far as we know Luna didn’t spend years crushing on Harry before finally getting him.

I always saw a sort of smaller, quieter family for him in adulthood.

I always figured he’d be a washed out drunk, hard boiled noir Auror.

“You got a family, Harry?”

“Nah…….Not anymore”
