I've read the books since I was 11, and couldn't stop going through them. I've reread each of them at least 3 times too, and I get descriptive words from the books. Diane Duane is a wonderful writer.

For the first five pages...
I might have been the youngest!
I'm twelve now, but am turning thirteen Tuesday [February 17]
When I was eight, my dad found me the first three books; he is the director of the local library, so he had lots of recommendations.
The oldest people I know who read these books are a pair of twins who both work in libraries as well. they are about 60.
Who says you can get too old too read children's book?
A few weeks ago we had a hysterical discussion about Neil Gaiman's The Graveyard Book, and a couple of moths ago they lent me thier pre-published edition of Terry Pratchett's Nation.“I find television very educating. Every time somebody turns on the set, I go into the other room and read a book.”

Wow, that is a good question. I starting reading the series when I was... hmm... it was back in 1999 or 2000, so I was 9 or 10 years old (yeah, I started young). Cool that the series has still kept my interest from then to now!---

I'm pretty sure I was seven. I was definitely in second grade. But then, I usually start series early.-Dreams are nice, but sometimes you have to live in reality. -Perhaps, but dreams are MY reality.

I was 10 or 11 when I first read the series. I was chillin at the licrary looking at books waiting for my mom to get done talking to a lady and I just found it! It has always amused me how interconnected my story is to Nita's. But then I was at school on Monday (it was a weekend when I found it) and I told my friend about it and she said, "Ahh I've read that but I though it was just the one book!" So ever since then whenever a new book comes out we race to see who can finish it first!

Seems to me I was one of the older ones to discover the series. I've been reading them since, I can't find the date, but I think it's only been since 2004, when someone requested SYWTBAW at the library I was working at and I read the back of the cover and never looked back...There is Always DEEP Shadow where there is MUCH Light!

I think I was in middle school when I discovered this wonderful series, though I don't remember exactly how old I was. I'm now 23 and about to (finally!) finish school with a master's degree. I think this is the book series that I've been following for the longest."Go ahead! Panic! Do it now to avoid the June rush! Fear death by water!"Comment

Hmm... *stares at ceiling*..... I was at least in middle school... or maybe even elementary school?! *only has sensory memories* I remember reading AWD in the parking lot of my elementary school, but I might not have been attending. Whatever- let's just say since 6th grade. So I must've been 11 or 12."A cynic is a man who knows the price of everything and the value of nothing."

I'm only 11, and I never knew the books were that Old, but I only started reading them about 6 or 7 days ago, and I'm on A Wizards Dilemma"I don't want you thinking you're having harmless clothes-and-hair-and-pop-star talk with some alien girloid, and then have Earth get invaded because it turns out you were actually taking to some twelve-legged methane-breathing centipede prince who's decided to turn up with a battle fleet and demand your hand in marriage!" -*Kit, WHComment

I started reading the series slightly after starting and hating Harry Potter. To me, harry potter wasn't well written in the least and lacked the depth these books delve into, not to mention it lacked any logic that I could follow.
I started the series at 11 and wished it was real.... I rather wanted to be a wizard and connected with each of the characters.Comment

You know, I don't really remember when I first read them. I know Harry Potter had to have been out because I remember thinking I liked them better. I want to say that I was probably in Midschool, 7th or 8th grade. But I'm not sure how old us American kids are in 7th or 8th.
Anyway, I'm 21 now, so... I don't know, someone who is better at math than I am can do that calculation. I don't really get it when people only recommend these books to young adults. I guess I don't technically qualify as one anymore, but I'm sitting here re-reading WaW, and I reread Wizard's Holiday yesterday (all in one day, why yes, I read pretty quickly, especially when I should be studying for finals)."Sometimes, people build walls- not to keep people out but to see who cares enough to knock them down." -AnonymousComment

Welcome, Sugarcane!
I think I was 9 when I finished reading Harry Potter (for the second time) and had looked on the internet for good books to read after Harry Potter. I made a list for books I thought sounded good and gave it to my mom so she could try to get them in the library system (she's a librarian) and then discovered how much I love DD and Dianna Wynne Jones
.
And since then, I have discovered some very wonderful books by them and others."Just how have I failed to notice Neets is hot?" ~Kit
