Now I don't want to offend anyone by saying this, but, I really can't get past the first chapter of any of the books. This is just my opinion but I really get bored from Harry Potter and if one of my friends reads this she is going to kill me! I must say the films are quite good though.

I do like the HP series, though for kids, the films are much better than the books which can be a hard read, especially the later books.
But they definitely cannot be compared to the kids series from Terry Pratchett. I would love to see those made into films! JMHO! |

I agree with those who dont like Harry Potter... I think HP books are too childish for me... I hate the idea of Harry Potters and i dont like characters either. The whole idea of about 11-17 year old boy could beat the worlds second powerful wizard is just too typical..

My nephew hated harry Potter because he thought it was too childish, but from my perspective I don't mind the childishness. If you find them too childish now you might want to revisit them in a decade or so. you might find they speak to your inner child

I loved Harry Potter, though I did think that JK Rowling let the story finish too easily, but hey it's a kids series. When you read the books you have to read them as a kid, you have to return to that part of your mind that remembers being excited about christmas, was excited about going to high school, loved the possibly that somehow you might be special. You have to be in the mind set to read the books. However, I am still pretty childish when it comes to the books I read. I read the books aimed at adults, but I always return to the old ones to visit my old friends and share in their adventures. Even if they are merely children now.
