Public reader discussion about The Sorcerer's Stone in the WeRead Catalog by Beatrice Grimshaw.

I’m reading this to my kids and we’re like 10 pages from the end, but the very last page is torn right in half. Would someone be able to snap a picture and upload it, or send it to me privately?

Yeah, there’s definitely more to it than just the “main” stuff. Harry in *Chamber of Secrets* basically already decided he’s going to go, and the only real question is who’s going to actually stop him. Then in *Prisoner* energy he’s out the door like, “try it if you want,” and you can tell he’s not playing around. In *Goblet of Fire* he’s snapping that whole selflessness thing and ends up doing his own thing anyway—like, he calls it his right to grab what he’s earned—and then he disappears to Hogsmeade. Also the money-room line in *Order of Psycho-epistemology*? He’s kind of hilarious, but also weirdly direct about it. And “Freedom Room” is such a Harry way to say it. Then *Half-Blood Prince* has that whole plants/watering thing like it’s a lesson: he wants them to be able to handle it on their own. And by *Deathly Hallows*, he’s telling Neville not to waste his sadness on the government since the government never really cared.
