Digging Deeper

When you read, how do you read? Are you the type that analyzes everything in the story? Who thinks that the dark clouds rolling in signifies evil or bad things to come? Or are you a person who reads for pleasure? Who thinks that those clouds simply mean the next event happened on a stormy day?

Personally, I'd definitely fall into the latter category. I mostly read books just for fun. For pure enjoyment. With the exception of school assignments, of course.

But that's about to change.

Over the next several weeks (maybe months) I'm going to try a little experiment. I'm going to try to dig down deeper into the first book in the Harry Potter Series, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. (Or the Philosopher's Stone, whichever you prefer.) I'm going to take a closer look at the world Ms. Rowling has created in these books. And I'll be posting what I guess you could call the results of my in-depth analysis on this blog.

Get ready, fellow Potter People. This high school Potterhead is preparing to dive in headfirst.
