   Summary

   Holly Potter just wanted to be left alone, but the plot had other plans. Hogwarts offered her an escape from the Dursleys, yet it seemed the universe wasn’t content with giving her an easy life.

   An American college student suddenly isekaied into the world of Harry Potter, sorted into Slytherin, and completely clueless about making friends. Things didn’t exactly improve when she realized her entire knowledge of Hogwarts came from Buzzfeed quizzes her roommate had sent her.
