I think the films are a poor by comparison to the books, i really enjoy reading them, half the fun is that your kinda there sneaking around with them (says the 29 year old :D). The films just dont give me the same feeling of immersion.

Re: Harry Potter
 

I'm a fan (as are the wife and kids) and I will probably head down to Asda on the night.

I enjoy the films just as much as the books - for the most part the directors has conjured up a similar environment as we imagined.

Re: Harry Potter
 

I agree that the fims are good, dont get me wrong, im just saying the books are IMO, better.

Re: Harry Potter
 

I went to Asda at midnight last night to get my kids copy.

The things we do eh :)

They had staff wearing a cape, wig, glasses & hedwig.

now just need to wait my turn to read it, I'm 3rd in line despite it being me that bought it !

Re: Harry Potter
 

I have not read any of the books but I love the films :tu:

Re: Harry Potter
 

I've read all the others, can't decide whether to bother with this one or not.

When I moved at the end of last year I didn't bring the HP books with me, I'm tempted to buy the boxed set when it comes out but TBH I know that there'll be another new book in a couple of years so that'll screw the set up.....

Re: Harry Potter
 

I couldn't be bothered to go out at night, so I went to Morrisons at 9am and they had plenty - only £7.95 for a '£16' book.

Read the first chapter - so far so good.

Re: Harry Potter
 

Got it delivered straight to the door this morning from Amazon (8.99), not started it yet because im near the end of another book.

I might get a chance next week to start it.

Re: Harry Potter

Re: Harry Potter

Re: Harry Potter
 

Snap

I must say the writing style has improved immnsely.

Re: Harry Potter
 

I am not saying a thing, now on chapter 7. Definatly worth a read though. Started reading and can't stop, its one of those 'oh I'll just read the next few pages and see what happens' books.

Re: Harry Potter
 

I don't seem to have mine yet, although Amazon despatched it yesterday. Post Office :mad: :fit:

Re: Harry Potter
 

Ouch - looks like you'll have to wait until Monday now too...

Re: Harry Potter
 

The other option is to go an buy it from a shop, although that would mean I have two copies..
