I wonder if there's any sort of link between people being fans of Harry Potter and fans of Tamora Pierce. There do seem to be several of us here. *ponders*

I think it's because both are about a hero that goes through challenges and phases before coming into her (or his, in Harry's case) own. It's the Hero of a Thousand faces thing. Scarlet teaches a class on it and from what I learned there, I would say Harry, Daine and Alanna all qualify.

Although I am lurking in The Roost often, I never posted in this thread :shock:

I think most of you know me, but I will tell a little bit more about myself.
My name is Kim, second year Gryffindor Prefect from the Netherlands. I am currently in my 5th year (out of 6) at University, studying Pharmacy. That also is the reason why I love Potions and Herbology so much. Oh and books! I loooove books.

See ya!

Kim, welcome! :)
If you're a huge book reader, try Richelle Mead's books. She is one of my favorite authors who focuses on researching folklore and turning them into YA books. Her books include: "Vampire Academy", it's spin-off "Bloodlines", Dark Swan series, her first standalone novel: Soundless, and her new triology: The Glittering Court (this is more history and fantasy than mythology). If you're into YA, I also recommend Rick Riordan who makes really good mythological books, such as Greek, Romans, Egyptian, and Norse.

A quick hello to my fellow Ravenclaws, HOL101 participants and everyone else who finds themselves visiting from the other cool houses within HOL.

I'm Aidan and i'm a first year Ravenclaw who loves reading, writing, travel, watching movies and just chilling out with my mates. I'm taking HOL101, Animagus 101, Wandmaking, confronting your boggart and W.O.M.B.A.T as an introduction to the magical world. I'm muggleborn, but super stoked to be here!

Hello Ravenclaws and all visitors here at the Roost.
In HOL 101 we are doing a bit of a 'tour de chambre' - that's an event that usually happens in dorms, where the idea is to visit everyone's rooms in a short amount of time - and now we have reached Ravenclaw - my house dormatory. But being a first year, many of you may well not know me so well yet. I hope you will by the end of the year. I at least am looking very much forward to getting to know everyone.

I also hope I keep finding as many amazing things around HOL as I have so far. The latest thing I have found that I really enjoy is the trivia bot that is used for quidditch practice. If there's anyone that hasn't tried that yet, I can highly recommend it! It is fun and challenging, but not too hard.

I'm Oliver Strike, I'm a first year Hufflepuff and a lover of knowledge and books so I could fit in either Ravenclaw or Hufflepuff. I also love chocolate and spicy foods. You can PM me weither it's to talk about books or just to say hello.

Hello everyone! I'm fairly new here, but I wanted to introduce myself. I am a Gryffindor, so I suppose I've got to thank you for opening your common room to us! Despite being sorted into Gryffindor I know that I could definitely have been happy in Ravenclaw too. I'm not always the best student, but I love learning new things and I really enjoy making and crafting, something that I think isn't often associated with Ravenclaws. That being said I'm very excited to be a part of HOL, even though I've joined so long after it began. I'm also a Marvel fangirl and just finished reading the Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children series: It was excellent!

Hello,
My name is Roseallyn Jacobs and I'm a Hufflepuff first year. So far my experiences here at HOL have been very enjoyable. I'm really loving everything here and am very excited for next term. As for a little about me...hmmmm... well I turned seventeen in October, I LOVE Broadway musicals, reading, writing, and drawing. I mostly write little fluffy fan fictions. If you want to read any of them message me and I will give you a link. Fair warning at the moment they are limited to Hamilton and Be More Chill. At the moment I am re-reading Harry Potter for the umpteenth time. I can't wait to start experiencing all HOL has to offer. :D :D
