How sad am I: I haven't read any of the HP books! I know, I know, I'm just busy with the big pile of "to be read" books already by the bed. But I promise they're on my list! Winning this prize pack would encourage me to start at the beginning!
I have read all the books but would love to actually own them so I can reread them all.

Commented the other day. Guess it didn't go through.
I have been a Harry Potter fan since the fifth grade. Unfortunately. I walked away after the Goblet of Fire. All of my books have been misplaced or sold, because we moved several times.
Now, I've made it my goal to catch up. Winning this would...wait this isn't an essay competition. I'd love to have more Harry.
