Harry Potter has no idea how famous he is. That's because he's being raised by his miserable aunt and uncle who are terrified Harry will learn that he's really a wizard, just as his parents were. But everything changes when Harry is summoned to attend an infamous school for wizards, and he begins to discover some clues about his illustrious birthright. From the surprising way he is greeted by a lovable giant, to the unique curriculum and colorful faculty at his unusual school, Harry finds himself drawn deep inside a mystical world he never knew existed and closer to his own noble destiny.

Ginny’s first appearance has me wondering how far out Rowling plotted before writing… it seems intentional that Ginny is named and described in such detail, planting the seeds for later books
Rereading the entire series in preparation for Manacled (& potentially the entire dramione rabbit hole) - definitely not a necessary step but I’m sooo looking forward to experiencing this world again, it’s been so long I’m hoping it’ll feel like the first time 🥹
