  • Awesome Harry Potter Podcast!

    This is a great Harry Potter podcast! I love how Sarah goes beyond what’s on the page and really makes you think about what’s taking place within the context of the Wizarding World… This is an awesome place to put yourself in the shoes (trainers?) of the characters and think critically about these books. She has cool guests too!
