Horror for Newbies
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?
Sairica I first read the first book after I saw the first movie. You will find JK Rowling a much better story teller than Steve Kloves and Micheal Goldenberg.…moreI first read the first book after I saw the first movie.

Infact, her presentation of the story and character sketch could not have been achieved by the movie writers who have sifted through the book to give what I would call a mediocre 2-3 hour compilation compared to the Rowling's original work.

Her books are truly magical.(less)
