HP&TMOR is kind of terrible on many levels but it may have saved my life; I was mindlessly reading it in the depths of a long, gloomy Seattle winter when something it said about the way the Dementors work made me look up from my tablet and go find a garden shop, from which I got a two foot square sun lamp that kept the suicidal urges at bay for most of the rest of my winters in that grey, gloomy town.
- fossuser 7y agoI also really liked that scene you're talking about. Not sure you think it's terrible though, I really liked it all the way through. For people that don't know about it, it started off as a blog post on less wrong so the first chapter or so is a little different in style. If you want to see if you'd like it I suggest people read Chapter 10 (the sorting hat chapter) and if that appeals to you to go back and start from the beginning.
