Andrea everyone should just stop fighting, like *Kenna Bear* wrote everyone has there own opinion. And I respect your opinion Kimberly LoVe. If you dont like the books then thats fine. What books do you like?

Nikhil Harry Potter used to be good, but when everybody started getting obsessed with it, it lost its meaning


message 1354: by Valerie (new) - rated it 4 stars

Valerie Agreed, Nikhil. But they're still good. Just not as good.

Who loved Harry Potter before Harry Potter was over-rated? ME!!!

Rachel Yeah it's a shame when that happens. It loses it's uniqueness.

harry potter is overrated but i still like it. a lot.


message 1358: by [deleted user] (new)

Definitely! I love it. My cousins and I would speak to each other in spells and now a lot more people do that. No one would know what we were doing in public. Now it can't go unnoticed!

honestly i think that might be true... i think some peoople just lost interest in it because it became unpopular..... in my school its still pretty popular tho... in my english class some ppl debate on if he's real or not... now thats just dumb tho rite

Lynx the this I really don't like about it (I'm not saying I hate it) is it coppies a lot of stuff from Tolkien's books, just changning them a bit.

Jens Andersen I have always wondered why people have an opinion about books they don't like. If you don't like Harry Potter why waste your time. There are a lot of things I don't like but I don't care about them. I won't waste my (and other people's) time tell the world what I don't like. So........

By the way I like reading Harry Potter :-)

Shannon Parker i bet all you people love twilight. and you all are saying that jk rowling ripped off some of meyer's writing, such as sirius black and the whole werewolf situation. well guess what people: Prisoner of Azkaban came it 1999 and Twilight came out in 2008. So shut it. Go HP!


message 1374: by Amanda (new) - rated it 5 stars

Amanda I refused to read the harry potter books until a couple of years ago because i am not really into a lot of fantasy types of books, but once i started reading them i really liked them. I dont really find it unusual that some people dont like harry potter becasue some people just arent into a lot of fantasy but i actuallly liked these books

Christine For those of you who have said that they hate Harry potter and it's stupid, give it a chance! If you already have then maybe you're just too STUPID to understand how epic it is.


Anna  ♥☻☺♫♪ i gave it like a few chances and i still didn't like it..... and i never called it stupid or tht i hate it... i justdon't rly like it all tht much


LAWonder10 Yes! I like a lot of Science Fiction books but Harry Potter is one i would never encourage youth to read and certainly not my children nor grandchildren.
I am appalled that elementary school teachers have encouraged students to read such far-fetched gibberish.

Would you rather they encourage your kids to read about the holocost instead? Harry Potter is a medium to teach the values of being honest, loyal and fighting for the truth. How is that gibberish?


Anna  ♥☻☺♫♪ well actually i get wat lu is sayin.... bc especially if you christian you can offend God by believeing in all this fake stuff... and its not educational at all.... at least the holocost is about something REAL in history

message 1390: by Amber (new) - rated it 5 stars

Amber I'm just going to say anything that promotes literacy instead of lets say facebook and myspace and whatever social network sites teenagers use these days as well as video games is ok in my book. Hey you might not like Harry Potter but you are discussing it!


Nicholas Harry Potter is awesome


Anna  ♥☻☺♫♪ I LUV TAYLOR SWIFT!!! I THINK EVERYBODY LOST TRACK!!!

Maggie Crawford "Would you rather they encourage your kids to read about the holocost instead? Harry Potter is a medium to teach the values of being honest, loyal and fighting for the truth. How is that gibberish?"

I had family members, when the books first gained popularity, try to tell me I shouldn't read the Harry Potter books because of the whole "witchcraft and wizardry" aspect (even though 1.) they hadn't read them themselves and 2.) I was an adult, so I could read anything I wanted to). The thing is, though, that in each book, there is a (mostly) clearly defined battle between good and evil, we know who the good guys are (and why they're good) and we know who the bad guys are (and why they're bad). There's a few exceptions, like Snape, but except for the "grey" characters, you know who's on which side and what they believe in and why. And the good guys win, for the right reasons: they're brave, they're loyal, they're willing to fight for what they believe in to protect themselves and those they hold dear. And in my opinion, that's a fantastic lesson to teach kids.

Replying to whoever started this topic.
NO

Harry Potter is now thought of as a childrens classic. you can look it up online.

It's funny that you say that, because I (who wrote the original comment) used to think it was overrated until my friends forced me to read it (you don't want to know how). Now I am in Harry Potter Club and substitute co-led it just the other day.
