emily-pontmercy a réagi à votre billet : I just really like people’s opinions of books… His Dark Materials, Stardust, and The Sister’s Grimm.WHY IS HIS DARK MATERIALS CLASSIFIED AS A KID’S BOOK. Stardust is just so quintessentially a mixture of fairy tales and Victorian…I didn’t ever read those… A large majority of my childhood was dedicated to Harry Potter and I went through a couple of years (around, 7-10) where I refused to read anything else because I thought I was “cheating” on Harry Potter. I didn’t really start reading a lot until the year before the 7th Harry Potter book came out.
Really?! How did you come up with that idea? Not judging, just curious!
I read Harry Potter of course but finished them so soon that I had to read other things (and also I wasn’t allowed to watch TV). I pretty much constantly had my nose in a book from age seven onwards :)
I actually have no idea…. I feel like it stemmed from competition within my class at school to be the biggest Harry Potter Know-it-All.
I was allowed to watch very little TV as a child too! I had a Waldorf education… So I read a lot as a kid as well.

miss-rumphius said: Anne of Green Gables will always hold a special place in my heart as a liferuiner. Probably the first book I ever really experienced it with. That and Little Women (since I can’t remember which I read first).
I know… Anne and Gilber were my first OTP though I didn’t know it!
