Tori Glass | 31 comments I'm re-reading the Harry Potter series and there are three main characters (Harry, Ron & Hermione). Can I count Harry as the character in one book and Ron in another, to knock off two letters?

I think so, Tori. They are still separate books on Goodreads, so I think you ought to be fine.

You can count one character from each book, like Harry from one, Ron from two, Dumbledore from three and so on and so forth. That goes for every series. I'm reading the Divergent series now and will be doing the same thing.
