What a good topic! :)  Personally, I hadn't read a
single HP book until last summer, just as GOF was
coming out.  I was hearing all the controversy about
how HP was promoting wiccan or satanism and some
Christians were trying to ban it.  I was very loudly
defending HP, arguing mostly that anything that could
convince children to read in this day and age couldn't
be that bad.  I picked up PS/SS in paperback so I
could better defend myself in an argument. [g]  Of
course, I read it twice in a row that very night, and
it wasn't long before all four books graced my
bookshelf.  I've been a junkie ever since. ;)
