Me:
What really surprised me was how close many of the fanfics came to 
the real book. Honestly. I haven't read that many really, but the 
ones I have.....well, I'm reading and I'm thinking "did JK read some 
of the fanfics?"

I'm not saying one fanfic in particular had everything, but the few 
that I have read had one thing or more that ended up in the story.

Hmmm....
