For my 3rd quarter SSR, I read Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince by J.K. Rowling. It is a fictional book that takes place in a magical place called Hogwarts. I believe that this book will be read in a 100 years because it is part of a classic series and is relatable. The book is also engaging because you would want to read more to know what happens in the story. An example of this happening to me is when Harry won a good luck potionl called Felix Felicis and I wanted to know what he used it for. He ended up using the potion on his best friend, Ron, so he could do well in a game of Quidditch to boost his confidence and win the game.
I also think that this will be read in one hundred years because of its popularity in the present and the book/ series have been out for more than a decade. The following of this book is still growing as people read, get into, and imagine themselves inside of the book. The book is so descriptive that you wish that you could be in that wizarding world of Harry Potter which makes the book engaging. Also, as the internet grows, people can start reading the books online which makes it easier to access, therefore making it convenient. The book will be read in a hundred years because it will show the future generations how authors have evolved overtime and it will be the quintessential book to read.

  1. The Harry Potter books are classic and are still popular to this day. I agree with you on that this book will be read in 100 years from now. I've read some of the books, and they really do engage the reader with specific description that you feel that you're a part of the wizarding world.

  2. I agree that this book and pretty much every other book in the Harry Potter series would be read 100 years from now because of its massive popularity and engaging story. It gave readers the fantasy of escaping regular everyday life and becoming a wizard in a place where they could do anything they want. I imagine that this would appeal to many people in the future.
