She's always looking for an excuse to recommend a book, whether you ask her for one or not. When she's not ranting about comma usage for her day job as a corporate editor, she's usually got an audiobook in her ears and a puppy in her lap.

Have you ever been in the middle of a Full House binge watch and said to yourself, “Self, I wonder what Hogwarts houses the Tanners would be sorted into?” No? Just me? Well, if you HAVE, lucky for you I took on the awesome responsibility of sorting all your favorite ’90s television characters into Hogwarts houses (with some help. Shout out to all my friends who didn’t even question it when I texted them things like, “Would you put Carlton Banks in Hufflepuff or Gryffindor?”). You’re welcome.

For all of you muggles, here are descriptions of each of the houses:

Gryffindor: The house of the brave, loyal, courageous, adventurous, daring and chivalrous. Motto: Do what is right.

Ravenclaw: The house is known for their wisdom, intelligence, creativity, cleverness and knowledge. Motto: Do what is wise.

Hufflepuff: This house values hard work, dedication, fair play, patience, and loyalty. Motto: Do what is nice.

Slytherin: This is the house of the cunning, prideful, resourceful, ambitious, intelligent, and determined. Motto: Do what is necessary.

BonusMuggle is a person who lacks any sort of magical ability and was not born in a magical family. Squib is a person who is born to magical parents but develops no magical abilities.
