As the last Harry Potter movie is about to come out around the world

We discuss what got us into reading.

for me it was The Hobbit back in Primary School, then I didn't read Lord Of The Rings untill I was almost about to start Secondary school and the first four Harry Potter books had came out and I decided to read them to see what the fuss was about.

I don't think "gook" works for Chinese people anyway. Also I like them.

I've been reading boos for as long as I can remember, but I do recall the book that got me into "adult" novels: The Talisman by King and Straub. I was twelve and the main character looked a lot like me, so I felt a strong parallel.
The wierder part was I realized, when I read it again at 18, that I looked a lot like Wolf. Blew my mind.

Probably Lord of the Flies. Or 1984, my mom had that on the shelf and I loved that when I read it at about age 12, although I probably didn't quite grasp every literary nuance.

As a kid I read the fuck out of some Hardy Boys books.
First adult book I can remember reading was Dune.
