  Harry Potter - If I could give this more than 5 stars I would

If I could give this more than 5 stars I...

Harry Potter has had a huge impact on my life. I wish that I had J.K. Rowlings mind and brilliance. The story is amazing and the characters so intriguing. I have read and reread the entire series more times than I can count and the movies dont do the books any justice. Just knowing that the last and final movies is done and over with in less than one weeks time makes me sad. HP has been an epic era in my life and I hope to pass it on to my own children the way my mom passed it on to me. view more

  Harry Potter - No Words to Explain

No Words to Explain

I have no words to explain how special these books are to me. They helped me stay sane through some bad times. I reread them again every year. I'm sad it's finally over. I'm not sure what to do now that there will be no new books or movies. I recommend this to everyone who asks me what to read. view more

  Harry Potter - Harry is great for all!

Harry is great for all!

The Harry Potter series is a very good read for all audiences. The first book is hard to get into, it takes until Harry gets to Hogwarts that it becomes really interesting. Although the books are obviously fantasy the books deal with a lot of issues that people deal with today. They are all very fast reads with an amazing storyline. Everyone should at least give them a try. view more

  Harry Potter - Harry Potter

Harry Potter

I think the series were excellently written. The first book was a little iffy, but once I got to the 3rd one I was hooked. I felt like I was going on the journeys with them. I think my favorite was the 3rd one, even though they all were good. A definite read for all children, and even grown ups!! view more

  Harry Potter - Harry Potter

Harry Potter

Harry Potter is an amazing series and can't wait until my boys are a little older to be able to share it with them. My daughter who is now 19 grew up with the children in the movies and is still a huge fan. We watch the movies in order at least every two months and never tire of it. view more

  Harry Potter - Grown-up HP fan!

Grown-up HP fan!

I first read Harry Potter when I was 18 years old and instantly fell in love with the series. It is a great story with an important message that "love conquers all". I recommend this book series to anyone of any age. I have also listened to all of the audiobooks and the narrator, Jim Dale, is very entertaining and does a great job with all of the voices. They are fun to listen to on a road trip, or while I'm puttering around the house cleaning up! The movies are, for the most part, pretty true to the books, with exceptions. If you are pondering whether to watch the movies or read the books first, definitely go with the books or you may be a bit behind on understanding everything that is going on. That said, the movies help bring the story to life and and lots of fun! Love HP! view more

  Harry Potter - Still Love Them

Still Love Them

I first read Harry Potter when I was reviewing the book for US publication at my middle school and quickly told all my friends who then had to wait until it was released in the states. The series is a great literary work and really got my generation's nose in books which is very important. view more

  Harry Potter - Harry Potter

Harry Potter

I really enjoyed this series. I thought it was very imaginative and entertaining. My kids and I are re-reading it.I didn't let my son finish it until he was in 4th grade. I just thought that the characters were dealing with issues that were too much for a child to understand. view more

Grew up on this series

I grew up on this series and love it. From the first time I got this book as a gift from my grandparents I was hooked. I was one of those people that stood out at midnight waiting for the book to come out. I have reread the books many time and cannot get enough of them. view more

  Harry Potter - Kinda ok for kids, not all the way tho

Kinda ok for kids, not all the way tho

I have read all the books, only because i was out of all other books to read. I read a lot and usually fast. the first 2 books were ok, good for kids books. the 3 & 4th books were ok, getting a little more advanced for kids but good for young adults. the 5 & 6th books were beyond a childs book as far as i was concerned, the conflicts that harry has to deal with is quite much for kids to comprehend. the final book was good and wrapped up the story well (even left an opening for another book, not HP but in the same world). over all the first few books ok for kids the last few not so much. view more

  Harry Potter - Its not just a kid's book

Its not just a kid's book

I was first introduced to Harry Potter when I was about 21 (4 of the books had been released by that time). I thought they were kids books and was wondering what all the hype was all about. That was until my 33 year old cousin in England insisted I read the books. She said the first was more elementary but the books would get more adult as I read on. So I gave it a go and was hooked. They are so well written - some themes are not for kids (I've known a few to have nightmares after reading the 3rd book), but other themes are wonderful - relationships friends, family, right vs wrong etc. All in all- great books!! view more

  Harry Potter - Harry Potter gets even better!

Harry Potter gets even better!

I have been an avid reader all my life (i am in my 40's) I ran the book dept at a local childrens store and I am never without a book or two. Harry Potter came out while I was working in the book dept. and I have loved him ever since. I have read all the books numerous times, own all the movies and am now part of the Pottermore craze. I thought it was over when the last book and movie came out....but with the release of Pottermore, I am learning new things about the wonderful world of Harry Potter....Thank you J.K. Rowling for creating this world from you imagination! view more

  Harry Potter - The best fantasy series of the 21st century

The best fantasy series of the 21st cent...

The Harry Potter franchise is the best fantasy series to come out of the 21st century. JK Rowling weaves an imaginative tale that captures the hearts and minds of children and adults. The books are far superior to the movies but both are excellent in their own ways. But no one should pass up the books to see the movies. There is nothing like the thrill of imagining the world for yourself, and getting all the detail that you miss with only two hours of staring at a screen. view more

  Harry Potter - The Absolute Best

The Absolute Best

I love Harry Potter. Who doesn't? They're the books that introduced me to reading and writing, the books that taught me how to be brave, courageous and a good friend, the books that took me to a world I never knew existed. These are the books that change the lives or children, and without them, our worlds are incomplete. When I was younger, I would spend hours dreaming of life as a Hogwarts student, hoping that I would receive my letter on my 11th birthday. I would read and re-read these books as I partook on Harry, Ron and Hermione's adventures, and when the movies came out, I watched every single one religiously. I even played the magic quill game and got early access to Pottermore! And guess what? I've got my little brother, who's only in elementary school, hooked on the books as well! view more

  Harry Potter - My Favorite

My Favorite

So I have read the books 3-4 times each, watched all the movies countless times, and enjoy them over and over again. At first I resisted the hype but once I gave in I was hooked. the last movie was good but kind of a disappointment. Maybe I was just disappointed because it was the last. I know the books will always be better in the long run. view more

  Harry Potter - Magic, Mystery & Mayhem

Magic, Mystery & Mayhem

This is a great series to let your kids grow up with, but please DO consider making sure your kids are the same ages or elder then the main characters in the books. I say this because some of the themes later on in the story require quite a bit of abstract thinking and mental maturity to be able to deal with appropriately. view more

This topseller is one series that deserves its fame and success. I've read it and enjoyed, my parents have read it and enjoyed, and my younger cousins have also read it and enjoyed it! There are no complaints when it comes to Harry Potter: the world is so magical that you will not want to stop reading. Notice how the difficulty increases with each book; I found the difficulty kept me engage as I grew as a reader. view more

Just saw Deathly Hallows Pt 2 for the second time - IMAX 3D - Totally worth it. I must say, I think the movies did a terrific job following the spirit of the text. So sad to see the series ending...I haven't enjoyed a series of books this much in a very long time! view more

Gets even better with Pottermore

I was able to get early access to the Harry Potter Pottermore site and it's pretty cool. It's a great companion to use while I re-read the books...again. Getting insight directly from JK Rowling and her views of certain parts of the books is amazing. I would urge everyone to sign up for this site when it opens to the public view more

best books...no really

Years ago, when only about three books were out, i made fun of a friends girl friend cause she asked me if i liked potter, "cause i love harry potter, it's amazing, i love it, it's great" i thought she was really immature as she was in university talking about a book for tweens. years later someone talked me into reading the books, and i relented and i ended up, "loving harry potter!" they really are a great read! give them a try- and remember that they get much better after the 3rd one. view more

  Harry Potter - not just for children

not just for children

I read all the books in a short period last winter. I had read the first three in 2000, but left the last 4 til then. I loved them. The books are written for children, but Rowling's world is so well-realized that adults can get so much out of these books. It teaches very important lessons to kids, namely that success is not always instant, that you get farther if you let people help you, and that love is important. if you miss these books because you don't want to read "kids books" or you think that they're about devil worship, you are doing yourself a tremendous disservice. view more

A Wonderful Series

I love this series. I began reading it before book four came out; I was in my late teens. I read the entire series every year. It's so amazing. I never get tired of the stories. I recently loaned my books to my friend's 7 year old. She is hooked, and they read all of them very quickly. This is a series I will continue to share with my own child once she is old enough. view more

  Harry Potter - Love the books!

Love the books!

The first few years the Harry Potter books came out, I was very against reading them because they were so popular and I didn't want to be a 'follower'. But once I started reading them I was hooked! I read all three books that had already come out in just a week, and then I re-read every book when a new one would come out. Good for almost any age and great to read over and over again! view more

I was one of the skeptics at first when Harry Potter started, but after watching the first couple movies, I was hooked! I then read all the books and have all the movies!

Love the Movies

I haven't read the books yet since i'm not a big reader, and since i started with the movies I don't want to compare the movie to the book and be dissapointed if something is left out or not exactly the same. I have to say they do really good with the movies and could not have casted better. It's also a kind of all ages category and love that it has been going on for years. I hope that the author either writes a new series related to this one like with the next generation, or someone else picks up that kind of idea and it continues. view more

  Harry Potter - Read Harry Potter

Read Harry Potter

J.K. Rowling and her Harry Potter series single handedly brought reading back into the lives of children (and adults) everywhere. My youngest son was not a reader until harry Potter was introduced to the literary world. He was so engaged with the series. We would read together, he having a copy and I having my copy and then discuss the chapters. The Harry Potter series has spurred him on to read other works, like the classics. He has now read some Dickens, the Catcher in the Rye, Bram Stokers Dracula and other. I?m glad the Harry Potter series sparked a love of reading for my son. view more
