Dear J. K. Rowling,

I love your books a lot.   They are awesome.  My favorite book in the series is Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.  That one is so exciting because when he catches the portkey it takes him to where Valdemort is being recreated.  The recreation was so thrilling in the book that I will never forget it.

I think the scariest one in the series is Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.   Every time I read it I get a chill.  The part that scared me the most was where he stabbed the basilisk fang into the diary.  I read the book two days ago.  I was babysitting my little brother and he had me read that part to him and he said that part gave him a chill too.

I used to get scared really easily but now I only get scared in life threatening situations.   I’m really glad you wrote these books.  I got the first book in my school library.  When I was finished with it, I was like Wow! That is so intriguing.  It was so good.  Since my parents aren’t really sci fi people, my best friend’s mom told me what the books were about.  She has read them all.  What character do you pretend you are when you read the books?  I pretend I am Harry or Hermione.   For some reason I just can’t see out of Ron’s point of view.

You are my favorite author ever. Your books change my life in some way or another every day.   Your series helped me get through my grandmother’s death.

Sincerely,
