Curating yourself: The Harry Potter series of books

Harry Potter is a very popular and famous story in the world. It has several theme parks, books, movies, and a musical. So many things have come out with the story of Harry Potter. It shows how Harry Potter is still popular for everyone. Most people read the Harry Potter books or at least saw the movies. Some people who are really big fans of Harry Potter go to England to see the Harry Potter theme park.  

I’m a really big fan of the Harry Potter series. When I first heard about Harry Potter I was in elementary school. Harry Potter was very popular in our school and the library book was out of stock. I watched the movie first. It was a brand new world, and it caught my eye. Harry Pottery is still a nostalgic fantasy and the best story to me. However, after watching all of the Harry Potter series, I felt that I did not fully understand all of Harry Potter. I still had many questions and did not know about many characters. But this happened to a lot of people who only experienced Harry Potter by movie, because the movie’s running time is not longer than 2 hours and it has to be not boring and show just the most important scenes. Because this happens, movies usually do not show as much detail as books. Therefore, few month ago, I started to read Harry Potter by book and it is slowly solving my problems.

The book’s contents has potential power because of its strong messages and stories. Harry Potter is about a normal young boy who achieves big things and kills the dark wizard Voldemort. When he struggles, his friends help him to survive even though some of them die. This literature shows the power of love, friendship, and bravery to people. This book is important to me because it is fun and also very powerful.  It also helped me improve my imagination. The contents was unique to me because it was my first time reading about wizards and the story touched my emotions. Harry Potter grows up lonely because his uncle and aunt neglect him. He survives many obstacles but still becomes a strong person. I think this is really good message to give to people. 

I think that it is important for people to read the books instead of just watching the movie. When I read Harry Potter by book, it is very easy to understand because of the detail in stories that describes situations, character’s thoughts, and details of a scene. Also, the books explain the situation that is not shown in the movie. Using my own imagination I can draw the image with book description and words. Personally, I love to read books before watching movies because I can compare with book and movie and my originally imagination and visual of the movie. Also, even if I cannot understand what is happening in the movie scene, I can guess and compare from book. I can know what scenes appear or not in the movie.


The book’s dependent effect is people can use their own imagination to set up their own movies and can know the detail of the books. A movie visually shows many things and catches people’s eye but the effect of a book is that it makes people creative and improves ourselves.
