Me in Harry Potterland

I read Sorcerer's Stone last weekend, and will finish Chamber tonight or tomorrow morning. I guess I can see the hype now, really.

Half-way Prisoner; it reads so easy that you make forget you're reading for an hour... I normally never jump any bandwagon, but I guess I'll chase it now it's already crossed the finish line.

Done yet? POA was my favorite, although GOF was also very good. I like JKR's style, which the movies don't capture that well- trying to find a word for it...

Have fun Marky ... the realm of Harry Potter will clearly never be the same again for your having invaded it.

Re: Me in Harry Potterland

My favourite was the Half Blood Prince. They do have a certain pull and charm to them, although not enough to live up to the raging fandom's claims (but when do books ever meet the expectations of rabid dogmatics?)

hehe, asterix joke.

Re: Me in Harry Potterland

Potter stories get plotted very well, I think. But I simply knew there would be some kind of portkey later on in the story. And then thought it was gonna be the cup. You're going to realize what is gonna happen while you later on.
