Zoom answers “I have watched all the Harry Potter films...”

A Goodreads user asked this question about Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Harry Potter, #1):

I have watched all the Harry Potter films loads of times and I love them but is it worth it reading the books if I know what is going to happen?

Zoom YES! You absolutely must

As someone who has also seen the films first, I too was unsure if I should get the books. But I did, and I was not disappointe…moreYES! You absolutely must

As someone who has also seen the films first, I too was unsure if I should get the books. But I did, and I was not disappointed.

See, the books are quite big and there are many characters, and for movies, that's a problem because they don't have the time to include EVERYTHING.

For example, I didn't know who Peeves was because he got completely scripted out of the movies.

Trust me, reading the books is kinda like finding the missing pieces to a puzzle.(less)
