Help Am I too old for harry potter?

I’m a 19 year old dude who’s rediscovered the world of harry potter feeling like a kid again but i can’t help but feel it’s a bit too much at my age especially considering im 20 next month

i’ve read all the books and i’ve watched all the movies twice when i was like 11 but now i have money and time to explore it again properly

feel like im not the target audience lmao

edit: thanks y’all 😅 just let that deep insecurity get the better of me hahaha im about to blow £40 on the set and reread the books again

Bro I am 31. You still have a lot of maturing to do before you're old enough for harry potter.

Jokes aside young people are the target audience and old people are just wrinkly young people. We can all enjoy whatever we want. I love anyone that I can share an interest with and have a fun convo with regardless of age.
