Followed by six more books and eight movies, the series not only got a generation of kids into reading, but also allowed us an escape for when the real world got a bit too much. Through following the adventures of Harry, Ron, and Hermione, we were introduced to the likes of Dementors and Hippogriffs, became enthralled in many a Quidditch match, and were left biting our nails during the Second Wizarding War.

Writer’s Note: Last week, I had the idea of writing a few diary entries from the point of view of someone with anorexia nervosa, an eating disorder characterized by the restriction of food. As someone who is currently recovering from anorexia, I have seen and heard pretty much all the stereotypes placed upon someone with it, and feel these entries might open some eyes and show readers the reality of the disorder.
