12 I think, maybe 11. I got SS as a gift right after CoS came out and my brother got CoS. He had to wait for me to finish before starting his, and he barely read 3 chapters by the time I had finished CoS and was on tenterhooks for more... Razz

I was about 11...Back in 2002...I actually read the Goblet of Fire first when I was 10 but couldn't understand it (Obviously as it was halfway through the series) so I bought the others and began reading then lol.

I was 13 when I read the first book, at 2000. Although I had read the second one a year before, and I admit I didn't get a damn thing. o_o

I had just turned 15 a few weeks prior to reading it. I'm 23 now. *feels old*

It really doesn't feel like that much time has passed . . .
