Harry Potter

Post by sonneveld »

I just finished the fourth Harry Potter book, and I know you'll all laugh at me but wow.. I can't wait for the fifth one now.

No spoilers.. but has anybody else read the books?  What did you think?

I guess I'll get back to my Discworld books.  I'm up to Reaper Man at the moment.. but it's on order so I read the Harry Potter books to fill in the gap :)

I've read Lord of The Rings(3 times) and thought that they were really good. I don't plan on reading the Harry Potter books though.

I have just finished the 1st book after seeing the film... and of course, as always, the book was heaps better than the film. It was magical... makes a great kid's book.
I am looking forward to the next one...

It's an old topic, I know, had to respond anyway ;)
Yes, I read all four books ;)
And I'm going to read the fifth part.

I've read the five of them and waiting for the sixth one.

Since I myself write fantasy stories occasionally, I've got a hankering for that stuff.

Harry Potter is good. But beware, the fifth Book is other than the first four.

What I am waiting for now is J.V. Jones - Sword from red Ice.

just get a glance at some pages of HP so far ... i'm still busy with the Dune series (next one is House Corrino, finished House Harkonnen yesterday).

I'm not sure i'll try the HP serie, though. I still have much things i'd like to give a try (Moby ****, among other things. Perhaps because of the quote in ST:First Contact)

I've read all the five books. I thought that Harry Potter's a bit childish though. It's especially weird in last few parts where Rowling adds romances between characters. But still it's a great book for children, and I'd like to read the next one.

You all know that the third Harry Potter movie is coming out in June. I can't wait, actually! I enjoy the books, but I love movies. (I guess it's the visual artist in me). And they've already started work on the fourth movie which will be released November 2005. The truth is, I have problems with reading, but I still enjoy the books and I can't wait for the sixth one either. So much exciting **** to come. Talk to you all later!
