Robin

Griffindor, of course

I was asked this at a book club meeting. I automatically answered Luna because of her love and insight of nature. There was a parent at the book club and I thought, what kind of impression am I making. So later I said Ginny cause she gets Harry.

The Deathly Hallows. Jo Rowling pulled it off. She tied up so many loose ends and gave us all a satisfying finale to share and talk about. There was Harry at the train station with his family full of love and excitment. Evil was gone. It was wonderful.

One of my students was carrying the hardcover of Sorcerer's Stone way back when. I asked him if it was as good as the buzz and he said he would lend it to me. But only until Monday. So that weekend was my introduction to Harry Potter. WOW! I went to the bookstore the next week.

The character I most relate to is Mrs. Weasley. The mother of us all. She is loving and tough and she survived raising Fred and George. She cooks, she knits (I wish I could). She does it all and then gets to say that wonderful line in Book 7.
