a read count eh?

Lets got through all the books, eh?

SS: I lost track at 12 times, and that was years ago. 25 is probably about right...

CoS: 6-8

PoA: 6-8

OOtP: 3. (To tell the truth, I really didn't like OOtP too much. Never did. I was worried that JK had lost her touch. I read the book when I got it, once over the next summer, and two days before the release of HBP. It's just not very... entertaining. It has too much flat, dry plot.)

HBP: 3 (Will be more soon!)

I freaking love HBP. Granted I was a H/Hr sort of fellow, but I can't argue with HBP. It's excellent. There's a constant humor about it... I loved the bezoars section... 'Birthday suprises' was the most excellent chapter ever. In history.

To be honest, I was scared after OOtP that she would produce steadily worse books. Many an author has traveled this route- They publish one great book, but there next is good, the next so-so, the next crummy... But JK has risen above the pathetic decline that marked the last three star-wars movies. Instead of being a steaming pile of suck, HBP was easily her greatest. I love it. But why am I talking Screw the rest of this post, I have a book to read!

Take 4!

lol, birthday prizes was an excellent chapter, i love hbp its my fave, but to me, the goblet of fire is one of the greatest books ever written, its up there with the odessyey (speellings off 2day), im rereading the entire series, and im on ss, but im taking longer than expected because im writeing down all of the good, quotes, u know funny and stuff. so im going to make a toipic of that when im done!

I'm halfway through my third read. The first time I read it it took me only about 12 hours so a lot of information I forgot over time. It's amazing how much you can pick up after a second read! HBP is definetely one of my favorites. This one and GoF are my faves.

I'm just finishing it for the second time. I really dont care for the end of hbp because of dumbledores "death". I think gof was the best book. The book focuses on more than just the tournament and i've always liked the backround story in a book. I've read gof around 15 times so far.

I recently finished reading it (HBP) for the 2nd time. I don't know why, but it was really hard to get through for the second time; I had to skip some parts because they just seemed. . .tedious.
