JK Rowling is a genius. End of Era.

The Harry Potter series is the most emotionally relevent story to ever exist. Love, loss, friendships, enemies, bullies, fate, strength, and self-sacrafice are all themes that children grew up with during the nearly two decade long era that helped shape their own character. The unconditional friendship that is shared between Harry, Ron and Hermione is the loyalty that all readers raised their standards to. The courage to risk your own happiness for the happiness of another is what everyone wished they were capable of. Harry Potter may actually be the most sincere and genuine being I have ever heard of. Even when he has lost both of his parents, his Godfather and all possibility of normalcy he rises to the occassion. He doesn't whine and cry about how he is Undesireable No. 1 to the most powerful dark wizard in history. No instead he takes all six years of formal wizardry training and puts them to use.
