That's awesome! (I wish Eldest was in second place though...)

Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.

I think this is really interesting, considering everyone goes around trying to say that the Harry Potter series are childrens books.

I voted before and I couldn't decide from Eldest or HPB. So, I did a lottery and HPB got my vote!
