Lauren Ugh, I don't know why people feel the need to post things like that, where they know fans are the only ones likely to read it.

Trolollolol.

What exactly do you mean?

MJ Not trying to be mean or anything, i don't always get things right away...

Haha its okay .

I think [in my opinion] She ment that, anyone who would see this, would have added the book. Meaning, People who have read this book will see it. And for the most part, people who have read Harry pOtter like it. So to have someone complain about not liking it, it would be pointless against so many people reading it, who do like it.

( I'm bad at explaining. V.V )

Juliet Hmmm...thanks for explaining why exactly you my favorite book of all time!!! I appreciate being called an idiot by someone who doesn't understand a wonderful book that actually has substance, unlike most of the books you have probably read.

MJ sorry, i just feel a little offened by that


message 226: by Brenna (new) - rated it 5 stars

Brenna No one should be being called idiots. Just because she hates something, doesn't mean we do. If there is something wrong with that, tell me. This is a free country. So yeah, she has the right to say that stuff. But we have the right to be mad, and to comment stuff back. Though if it's mean, like hers, plz keep it to yourself for the sake of all the "idiots" out there.

why? Because it kept my mind off things at school. Because I can talk about that series with my crush. Because they are interesting to me. Because I can read what I want. Because I didn't get bored right in the middle. Because because, because!

How can you know you like them if you don't even know their names?!?!?!

message 238: by Bella (new) - rated it 4 stars

Bella Street I really enjoyed the first three books, but when they started getting to 800+ pages without a whole lot happening, I shifted exclusively to the movies. Harry, Hermione and Ron are appealing characters in their struggles and friendships, which is why I haven't given up on the series altogether.

message 245: by Gregg (new) - rated it 3 stars

Gregg This thread is getting out of hand. I like Harry Potter, but do not think it is as great as the hype. I do not read all fluff nor all lit and you can check my shelves to see what I read. I think the people who bash people for liking HP are wrong, but I also think HP lovers trying to hijack this thread are wrong. This thread was clearly made for people who did not like the book to come and discuss (Well, at least the title indicates). If you jump in to this thread to proclaim how great HP is, you should not be surprised when you get flamed; and you should not act all upset and victimized. Personally, I have no interest in flaming HP, but it really annoys me when people do not read the title of threads and respond accordingly. I was just in a thread on another board called "complain about prices" and people kept jumping in and saying,"everyone is too negative here" or "you guys complain too much". Hey- if the thread isn't for you, start your own or join another. -end rant

Now how about people actually post concrete reasons why they hate the books ("only complete idiots would read it" is not a good reason)? Then others will be able to discuss if they agree or disagree and why(good responses, IMO, do not include you don't understand it, you're an idiot, you're immature, etc.).

sorry, my "why?" question was to the person who you replied to who hated it. :)
But I totally agree with you! Great talking point and the series are just so complex and amazing. :)

Totally agree with you about the name-calling. When a "debate" is reduced to calling people an idiot if they think a certain way, the debate is really just over....people need to supply legit reasons and not just personally attack their "opponent."


Natalie APPARENTLY I'M AN IDIOT (just so everyone knows) My friend told me hp was about some kid running around with a magical stick in his hand. I had to laugh at this but then i was like well Iron Man (both of us love iron man [movie]) is a guy who flies around in a metal suit breaking all kinds of laws.


Natalie you must have A.D.D.O.S: attention defficiency dis-oh shiny!

Sonia Jarmula It must be May 2, and according to that, Lord Voldemort, you are now dead. :)

Kidding. But I do find this coincidental. ;)

Complete beauty, vivid, imaginative, empowering. What's not to like?
