Have you read Harry Potter?
This thread is to see how many of you have read Harry Potter.
Personally, it is my favourite book series! what do you think? |
I haven't read them and I don't plan too. I watched half of the first movie though. It was pretty cool, I just didn't get to sit through it.
|
I read a chapter and realized that I could spend time reading better books. So I did.
|
I read books 1-5...then my friend spoiled a major plot twist in book 6. I'm talking about the MAJOR ONE.
After that, I have never picked up the book. I keep hearing things like, You gotta read it! You'll never get these questions answered. I can't! My Harry Potter spirit got murdered, now I read sci fi stuff like Starcraft and Enders Game. |
I read part of the first book because everyone hyped it up so much. I was like 100 pages into it and wasn't liking it so i stopped. Now i just watch the movies.
|
I only started reading them because of the amount of attention the 1st movie was getting *before* it was out. So I started reading the 4th and really liked it, so stopped, and read the 1st. I was amazed. It was the 1st book I had actually WANTED to read to the end. I then became really obsessed and read 1-4 millions of times, but I've only read the 5th 9 times and the 6th and 7th once (I stopped re-reading by then).
|
I read many of the books, and saw the movies of the one's I didn't get a chance to read. Good book series, but not the best, and the ending was cliched to the max.
|
Good series....read 'em all. The movies were "eh" but I loved the books =P
|
Though I didn't care too much for how it all ended, I still love the series.
|
As I said, I think they're a fantastic series of books, and If anyone hasn't read them, then sprint to the closest bookstore, :P
For those who only watch the movies, anyone who's read the book would tell you that the movie don't live up to the book at all, trust me! |
I have read all seven books. Overall, I think Harry Potter is extremely overrated. It is an okay series, but there are far better books out there.
|
I got up to the order of the pheonix and got bored :\ thats was a few years ago now, maybe i'll try them again... ^^

Well I read the first three and half of the fourth but I have not finished that one or started the new ones.
|
After reading the seventh book, I concluded this was no more than a book for illiterate inbred children whose related parents have the time to stand in line at Wal-Mart for 2 hours to buy a book to read to them that they'll eventually forget anyway. Yeah...
|
I started to read the first book, thought "eh" then put it down.
|
I have only read books one through six. Overall, I like the first four. The fifth is okay but sort of dull. I despise the sixth book, since one third of it is angsty teenage romance. Ron x Hermione and Harry x Ginny both make me want to puke. What was Rowling thinking when she decided on those couplings (especially Harry x Ginny. That came out of nowhere)?
I never did read the seventh book, since the sixth completely turned me off from the series. |
The only book of the series I ever completed was #1 because I couldnt get into it but the movies are great.
|
I've read each book only once. Not interested enough to read them through again.
|
I read the first two awhile back. They were pretty decent though quite overrated imo. Still, I quite enjoyed them so I can't complain ^___^
|
Read each book up to 6 only once, then stopped reading the books fully , and went straight to the end, which generally told me all i needed to know anyways
|
Read them and loved them all. Got me interested in reading again, and I'm thankful for that. Though the ending was slightly cliched, I believed it was fitting.
|
I read them, reread them and enjoyed them all. I bought the last three books exactly when they came out, at midnight. The ending on the sixth book was a bit too unrealistic for me and the seventh book was just crazy in comparison to the realism the first few books provided us with, even if it was a book based on magic. I felt disappointed that Rowling thought she had to kill off characters to make the book a proper book, but that was her decision and nothing anyone said nor pleaded could have changed that.
Good books. My favourite would probably be The Goblet of Fire. |
I read them all in about 2 months... I'm a VERY fast reader.
They were really good! I even went to the opening of the last book, and got a cool T-Shirt. |
