Wow, I am a Harry Potter fanatic. I read the 5th in 3 days on a vacation (meaning I was vacationing most of the time) and look at my age.

took me 10 strait hours of reading. not sure what possesed me. oh, wait, that was it. i was ill and it was the weekend. age doesnt really determine how good you are at reading either. i was reading full lenght Patricia cornwell novels when i was about 8. ('course i learnt how to use a dictionary pretty well. . .)

i agree the movies suck, they seem to have taken everything distinct about the characters, the plot, the- lets just say pretty much everything that makes the books great and DUMPED them down the drain. if you need 3 tubs of hair gel to make your hair look messy, then dont audition for the role

anyway, the next book better be good. its the only thing stopping me from hating it all in the storm of media and crappy novelty items.

oh yeah, and the fact i have the first book. in first print run. in perfect condition. it would get me thousends on E-bay. not gonna sell it though

The books were good; the movies would have been good had the books not existed to get my hopes up. On the other hand, then the movies wouldn't have been made at all.

hary potter is easy to read cause it was made for younger audience and yea i remember i read half of the book on my way to france on plane...( was the old james bond movie...so i decided to read)

I read the 5th in 3 days on a vacation (meaning I was vacationing most of the time) and look at my age.

I read finished it exactly 21 hours after I got it.

The books = good
The movies = suck

Someone who understands! God bless you!

Read the fifth one the day I got it.

Movies are terrible, books are great.

[Ratty]

Yarr, movies = sucky

Anywayz, i thought that the 5th book just... wasnt quite as good as the previous books....

[abbagirl]

I liked the fifth book, but you are right, Rat, it wasn't like the previous books- owing to pages 710 + 711. Not really. Nothing much really happened.

Except for the Harry/Ginny. And the Ron/Hermione kissy cheeky... Anyone who is still rooting for Harry/Hermione after the fifth book needs to... (perjorative term deleted).

I hope HBP is better... who is the HBP anyway? I'm thinking it's someone we haven't met yet.

[Serenarocks]

I like all of the books (except the last one), and I liked the first movie (though ALL of the actors played it up too much), the second movie was good, but the third sucks, they changed it way too much. Plus Hermione was way too..."tough" and flirty in the third, did anyone find that?

Ron/Hermione is the couple Im rooting for!

i read the fifth one in 3 or so hours. yes, im that fast a reader and youre right, the movies were nowhere near as good as the books. and i say HBP is an oversize killer muffin

although, on a mre serious note, possible candidates are: harry (of course), voldemort (another obvious one), um....lupin (well hey, he is a werewolf), or someone we havent met, like abbagirl said. im putting my money on lupin, just coz its so totally not gonna be him
