I quite like the Harry Potter movies and games. Never read the books, though, but't's pretty cool so far. I don't see what people could have against it, except that it's a commercial success together with it being deservingly popular.

And too offensively popular, at that. The books aren't bad as such, just the whole hype taking from them is becoming irritating.

I like the harry potter books, a lot!!
I don't really like the games, they're ok for 5 minutes... The films sucked, in my opinion, with the exception of the fourth one. I liked it.
But yeah, all this hype about it can be pretty annoying.. Although it does encourage kids and young people to read

I've read Harry potter, Lord of the ring, asimov, Orson Scott Card (Ender ..), I've read Eragon too (waiting for eldestto be published in pocket format!)
And a lot of other books !

I want to read Da vinci code (After I heard so much it, wanna make my opinion on it.)

Bit through Richard Mattheson's "I am legend". Good read, has a kind asimilar feel to books written by John Wyndham.

Read the "Zombie Survival Guide" last night. Happy that Zombies aint for real, that's sure...

I've just started reading "Ten days that shook the world", which is incredibly good.
