I've been lurking here for a long time and finally decided to make a LiveJournal and talk to some fellow Young Wizards fans. I have a sort of interesting story with how I met the Young Wizards series, so here it is: I've been reading the Young Wizards series since 2009. I was recommended this series in sixth grade when I took a reading quiz. When I told my friends that later on, they described it as "fate" or "destiny" for me to read the Young Wizards series. I picked up the first book the summer after sixth grade and instantly loved the book. But for some strange reason (that I still can't figure out today) I abandoned the first book. (Don't hate me! I was only eleven.) So I went into seventh grade and found the book (and the rest of the series) in the library, so on 9/11/09 (I figured out later on), I picked up the first book for the second time and read it. But this time, I kept on reading. :-)

So that was my story of how I met the Young Wizards series. I hope I didn't bore all of you with my story.

Was I supposed to tag this entry? As you can tell, I'm new to LiveJournal and here.

Thanks for reading and I'm hoping I revived this community a little too.

I wonder how many of us weren't instantly motivated to find sequels after we finished the first book. I don't remember why, but there was definitely some lag time between enjoying So You Want to Be a Wizard and finding Deep Wizardry.

Yeah, I think SYWTBAW was a little overwhelming and obscure, plus it seemed to tie things up at the end.

I don't know. Personally I found SYWTBAW very... full and whole on it's own. So grand, reading one book just filled me up. It took me at least 5 months before I got the next book out and started reading. After that... it was a downhill slide into the addiction :)
