Harry Potter

I didn't read the Harry Potter books but I did see the movies. As for Fifty Shades of Grey I am with you I am not interested in reading them at all. I get enough excitement in my marriage with out that sort of thing.

I have never liked the harry Potter books or movies. I had no interest in them. My son does, he likes them all.

I have not read Harry Potter books, but I have watched the Harry Potter movies. I think they are very good movies and the movies contains lots of entertainment. I think it is good to watch movies like this.

Well, I don't know if my situation would fit what you consider being late to the party but I just started reading Clive Cussler's books last year. I read about three or four books that I just picked at random and after becoming a big fan, decided that I was going to collect and read all of them. So I started reading the Dirk Pitt adventures from the very first novel. The earliest books in this series have been out for the better part of three decades. So I guess you could say I was a little late to the party as well.

I remember that I started reading Harry Potter just to be able to talk with my grandchildren. But before I had read 10 pages I was totally taken by the book. I loved it. And I also loved the movies. I think I loved much better the first one because I was thrilled with the special efects. I imagined how it would have been to see a movie like that when I was small!!!

I am always late for everything. Books, movies, music...you name it. That includes Harry Potter. Although I started reading Harry Potter when I was about 8 years old, I finished reading the series when I was 15 years old, and up to now I still haven't watched all of the Harry Potter films. I remember when I was a kid I was reading Sorcerer's Stone while my grandma was reading Chamber of Secrets. She was always one book ahead of me. I stopped reading Harry Potter at age 11 because I only had the first four books and didn't have the means to get the other three. But my interest in the books came back when I was 14 because I had friends who were also crazy about the series, and I finally got courage to borrow some books from the library. I'm also late to the Hunger Games series, but a friend recommended it to me so maybe I'm going to read it soon.

Hey D, Better late than ever. Considering I've read all books in their entirety 4 times. The last time I read entire series in 12 days. I literally couldn't put them down. The author out did herself. FYI she recently completed and adult book, "The Casual Vacancy". I just ordered it online for my ereader. Anticipation is killing me. lol. TO answer the latter part of the discussion, I was a late comer to the Sue Grafton, Alphabet series. If you're not familiar with this she is an author who uses alphabet as titles for her books. A is for Alibi,B is for burglar, and so forth. I just received a message from her own facebook stating that she finished her latest book, W is for Whew. Another I cant wait to buy. Happy Reading my friend. Now you have to decide where you belong. Ravenclaw, slytherin, hufflepuff, or my favorite Gryffindor. Yes, I am nuts when it comes to Harry Potter. lol ttys dml

i love mysteries, and futuristic things such as harry potter etc. i waited with bated breath for each book and film of that series i was late with the Huner games series because i hadnt heard until a friend here told me about them. the movie was not near as good but im still going to watch each as it comes. have you read those?

Actually....YES, About a month ago somebody gave me a Kindle and my boyfriend downloaded me lots of books which one of them was THE HUNGER GAMES, i never thought I would like it but I couldn't quit reading till i finished all 3 books

I have never read Harry Porter and don't plan to. I know they aren't for me. I don't get int0 wizards and stuff like that. My younger brother and his whole family have read the the whole series and seen all the movies. So has my older brother and his daughter Ingrid.

Hey I also can't believe it took you a long time to read a good book. I love Harry Potter, I've been hooked on it since I was in high school, I've read the first 4 books at that time then gradually read the succeeding books after that til I reached college. Also I'm reading Dan Browns, Robert Langdon's series, from Angels and Demons to Da Vinci Code up to the latest Lost Symbol, also now that he's released a new book that's in addition to his series which is entitled Inferno, and I'm excited to read the new one again. I like it's controversy and the fictional, almost factual secrets behind the stories, its really great you should try.

This was a few years ago. Back when I was just out of university and I was still looking for a job. The internet wasn't such a big deal then, so most of the free-time was spent reading. I remember finally catching up to reading 'Lord of the Flies'. I distinctly remember thinking that it would have been a good paper for one of my subjects in school.

that book is a total classic read with all features involved and its truly magical and enthralling with great spells too

If I am not mistaken, I was able to read the first four books on 2002 when my officemate received a package from his sister containing the first four books. So he asked me if I wanted to borrow. So I read those books while at the office. But the last one, until now we haven't met yet, he he. I already watch the movie. Have a great day!

I love the books i wrote the best lol But now that I do research work on the Internet all the time I have to admit I don't read much, but I loved the red tent by Anita Diamond. It is version of the story of Leah in the bible.

I started reading Harry Potter about the time the 3rd or 4th book came out, before the first movie. I remember picking up a book and reading it at the movie premier later! Mostly, tho, I listened to them on audio. I can't say I "read" with my eyes the first 6, but the last one I did. I bought the audio and the roomie bought the book, but she listened to it and I read the book, since its harder for her to read due to her vision (or relative lack of it.) I've read the Hunger Games books and enjoyed them. I'm looking forward to the next movie.

I read each and every Harry Potter book before i saw any of the movies. They are awesome books. I'm behind in the Game Of Throne series. The True Blood books i just cant seem to get into tho i love the t.v. series. I want to read the 50 Shades Of Grey series but haven't yet. The twilight books i read one liked it and then tried to read the second one and couldn't get into it so about half way through i was done. The Hunger Games i'm behind in because i saw the movie first lol. I love to read and will read just about anything except harlequin romance books the soap opera type no way don't like those at all lol.

Yes I have also experienced the same thing. I bought a boxed set of harry potter novels two years ago. But I didn't even take out a book and read till last December. But when December started, I thought of reading the first book. But after reading the first book I could not stop reading the other parts. I have completed 5 parts of the series till now. I will soon complete other parts also.

Don't worry, I also got to read about Harry Potter last year. My husband just gave me my Kindle apps on iPad full of ebooks and some of these are the complete Harry Potter series. I got intrigued because I have seen the movies but never read the book. Now, I have to agree that the movies isn't even half as exciting as reading it.

I like to read the most recent books because I can decide if I like them or not and my opinion isn't dependent on someone else positive or negative commentary. I try to stay out of books that everyone already read or even worse they made a movie based on it. But sometimes it's worth to make an exception. Like in your case for example. Harry Potter is a great series and I'm surprised everytime I hear that someone didn't read it yet. I used to be so popular that people were waiting at a bookstores on midnight to buy a new volume in the day of premiere.
