Even the Queen reads Harry Potter:
from Ananova Queen shows off Harry Potter knowledge Quote:
The Queen has outwitted a group of children with her knowledge of Harry Potter.
She surprised the Bishop of Birmingham, the Rt Rev Dr John Sentamu, by revealing she knew the answer to a question about the teenage wizard's adventures which foxed the young congregation at a service she attended.
Bishop Sentamu said after the service at St Mary's Church, Flitcham, near the Queen's Sandringham estate in Norfolk, she told him: "Fancy the children not knowing about Harry Potter. I really am surprised. I knew."
Bishop Sentamu, who had been invited to preach at the service, said: "Her Majesty seemed to know a lot about Harry Potter. I am quite surprised about that."
The Bishop had asked the children: "A famous professor once told one of his pupils, 'It's not our abilities or gifts which define who we are, but the choices we make'. Do any of you know who that professor was?"
The answer was Professor Dumbledore.

So, the Pope approves of it, and the Queen, defender of the faith, approves of it. Shall I close this thread now?
