Dang you ALL (and DH too!!!) - Book Club

Becca · 08-03-2007, 11:28 AM

Thanks to all the talk on the boards, and DH's decision to read the entire freakin' series in 3 weeks, I have been persuaded to read the Harry Potter series. I'm starting book one this weekend.

I love the movies - but I take so long to read books - if they don't hold my attention I'll put them down for weeks before I pick them up again.

THIS BETTER BE GOOD!!!

book 1 and 2 are a little slow because they are setting stuff up. 1 is definitely written for younger teens/kids. good luck i hope you like them

You will sit there all day and read them til you're done. I guarantee you.

oh Becca my dear if Cat can get thru 4 books and i am on book 5 then I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that you will be hooked like the rest of us are. I think J K Rowling has cast one of her Charming Spells on those books or on us once we start reading LOL.. Do you have all the books?

Nope...but I have friend with all the books

DH said the same thing about book 1. He also said that JK Rowling even said in an interview that she didn't set out to make these childrens books. That of course the first book was lighter because the kids were 11...but the series grows darker and deeper throughout. DH finished book 7 and said he wouldn't be surprised if the movie was rated 'R'...

I'm looking forward to reading them.

well you have 2 friends that have the books cause I have the whole lot of them now. If you need to borrow any just let me know and i will mail you the one you need. but if you have a local friend who has them thats great.

Cat · 08-03-2007, 11:39 AM

or does your DH have them all. i mean if you two are both reading the books at the same time you will both need 2 copies LOL

I personally am not a reader. I just have never enjoyed reading, but I picked up the Harry Potter book one day and decided to give it a try....I could not put it down! I love all of them so much!

Becca · 08-03-2007, 11:45 AM
