    Default Harry Potter

    I think the books are good. They are great to read if you are bored, and they aren't exactly 'kiddie' books. It's definately a series of books for all ages.

    I 'dun like 'em...

    The first one didn't have a hook for me, so I never got into it.

    My parents love to listen to those "books on tape/cd" on road trips, and I really don't like it...

    Well, IMO, the 4th and 5th books are way better than the first ones. maybe if you read those, you'd like 'em better.

    I reckon their decent. Horrible writing, but addictive storyline.

    I've heard at least 1/10th of all the books. I'm quite certain they're not my kind of story. (oh, and I've been forced to watch both movies. Didn't really care for them either.)

    the movies stunk... didn't bother watching the whole second movie...

    the first two books aren't anything extraordinary, but from the third onwards, it got better... hopefully they don't make the third movie as bad as the first two...
