I have a huge library, full of books, all kind of books, science, police, whatever !!!
Anyways, I like Harry Potter's books.
J.K.Rowling sure knows how to make a kid take a grip on her books ! She has an unique style that makes you wanna keep those eyes on the paper ... for a long long time ... In her books, I find fear, suspense, fun...
I love Harry Potter ! =)
But I don't like it that, everytime there is like a "Harry Potter Wave", like a new movie, we see everyone in the mass transit ( buses, trains, whatever ) reading her books ... That's just ... it sux.

I've heard that some copies of the fifth book had missing pages. They were replaced with page 402.

Because...why? Have you ever taken into account that you should EXPLAIN why you feel that way? It would make people take you a whole lot more seriously.

If you have a huge library you should read a REAL book, something by these great authors H.G Wells, Ian Fleming, JRR Tolkien, Pierre Boulle, Isaac Asimov, Arthur C.CLarke, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and George Orwell.
Theres probably millions of books better than harry potter, personally i'd rather read a sign saying "you are here" for 2 years then read a harry potter book.

Just because someone's read Harry Potter books doesn't mean that they've never read a "real" book. Aren't all books real? Come on, don't be a dumbass.

I was an English major in college. I read all sorts of stories and books by "real" authors. I studied romantic literature and major American authors. I wrote papers on Faulkner, Oates, Coleridge and Melville. And I have all five books in the Harry Potter series so far. I received the deluxe edition in the main Saturday morning and finished it in 9 hours, only stopping for dinner.

I've read all of them, got the fifth in the mail, my parents pre-ordered it. They always start slow and helluva crappy, but the end is usually pretty good, you just have to have patience with them

I liked the first four books, I'll probably read this one as well, the books themselves are ok, but I think that dressing up like wizards like a lot of people did the day it came out is/was a bit TOO MUCH, I mean, seriously...

Real fans would only have stopped for essentials, like dinner and bathroom breaks. ;)

I loved the book, of course I'm going to read it again and sulk until book 6 comes out. I'd like to say more at some point, but I hate giving away things.
