English 1-B Blogging Kickoff

I decided to read Harry Potter and The Sorcerer's Stone, by J. K. Rowling for my independent reading novel. I will also be reading the series for the blogging. I chose this because almost everyone in my family has read the Harry Potter books and they all pressured me into reading them. I would have like to make predictions about what is going to happen, but I know too much to only make a guess about the contents. Some of you might think that it's pointless to read it because I know so much about it, I agree, but I don't know exactly when and where a certain event happens. So I'm reading the books to know exactly when and where everything happens. So instead of doing that, I'll just tell you about the time and place where it happens. Most of you know all of this already, but Harry Potter takes place in 1990's Britain, where a secret society of wizards co-exist with mortals. The wizards hide their powers from regular mortals, save a few high ranking officials plus friends and family of a wizard. I look forward to learning even more than I know now. Reviews would be much appreciated in the comments section. SPOILERS ARE DISCOURAGED, but if they are necessary, use of the spoiler alert would be appreciated. Thank you and goodbye.
