How Did You Become an HP Fan?: I remember first hearing about the books in school. The next thing I knew I was begging my parents to get me the books for Christmas. I have been a fan of both, the books and films ever since.
Why Bonnie?: When I saw Bonnie's small part in "Sorcerer's Stone" I thought she was perfect for the role & absolutely adorable. I loved her performance in CoS and was terribly disappointed when she only had ONE line in PoA. After HBP hit bookselves there was some speculation from HP fans whether or not Bonnie would be able to pull off the "new Ginny". I never once doubted Bonnie's acting skills and was thrilled to see her "cool" performance in GoF.

Favorite HP Movie: Goblet of Fire

When Did You Become an HP Fan?: Honestly, I didn't become an HP fan until I'd seen the first movie. I fell in love with the stars of the movie, but I wanted to see what the character in the book were like, so I read all the books in a week and I fell in love! That's how I got into Harry Potter.
Why Bonnie?: Once again, I hadn't become a fan of Bonnie until I'd read Half Blood Prince. I completely fell in love with the Harry/Ginny ship and I wanted to see who played Ginny in the movies. Sadly, I hadn't realized who she was because all her lines were gyped in the movies. So, when I looked her up on IMDB, I became a fan instantly. I think she's a wonderful actress and she's beautiful. This is why I love Bonnie so much!

How I Became a Fan: Back in Fall 2000, my friend was reading the first book in class and I asked her what it was about and if it was any good and she just raved about it. Two years before, my mom gave my brother the Philosopher's Stone for Christmas which he wasn't interested in, so it sat on the bookshelf for a couple of years, until I was finally intrigued to read it. So I read it and liked it and I asked for the other 3 for Christmas and I just devoured them and loved them ever since. I eventually did get my brother to read them (he loves them too) and a few other family members and some of my friends too.
Why Bonnie?: Well, I've always been a Ginny fan, as I have been able to identify myself in her and so I understand where she's coming from. Of course, the films made me look at Bonnie and I think she does such a great job with what she's given. I really want to see her have a bigger role in the Potter films and continue to explore different characters in other movies. I also love her style and how she seem very chill and I think she's just stunning.
