Read: 2005ish. Reread: 8/2017. Oooh yes, just as good as I wanted it to be! It was fun to reread and see all of the familiar names appear - a lot of thoughts and memories rushed back to me. I still don't remember much of the plot (what happens throughout the whole series), so that's nice. This book is very introductory, which isn't surprising since it's the first book in a 10 book series. I hope to keep banging through these. The nostalgia is realllll.
