NHIE gone a year without reading at least one Harry Potter book since I first discovered the series.
I re-read teh whole series every summer.
Me too! Actually the last few years I've been listening to the audiobooks by Jim Dale instead. He's amazing. And listening is so much easier with a toddler! I just finished Deathly Hallows on Thursday and now I have this big gaping hole in my life
All of you non Harry Potter reading people really need to check yourselves.
I have attempted, I just can't. My co worker and really good friend LOVES HP.. I just can't get into it. UO I assume.
Same! I've started the first book like 5 times, I just can't get into it!
Harry Potter is written to help improve literacy. So the first book is like a 3rd grade reading level with a story line written for a third grader. Each book after that is a higher reading level and a more complex storyline. Starting the first book in adulthood would be frustrating. Try watching the first few movies and then starting with a later book.
Nhie, killed someone or something, like an animal or a person. (Your car counts as a weapon! Don't worry no one will find out about the bodies this way!

I have actually never heard it put that way. Interesting…. Thanks for that. I may try again then. I have unlimited access to ALL the books AND movies due to my HP loving friend.

Does it count if you are the one that removes the life support at the end of someone's life?

Yes! The first three books are quite kid-ish (still enjoyable for those of us that grew up with them), and they get longer, more intriguing, and darker later in the series. Honestly the seventh one, which I just finished, has some pretty mature themes. I definitely encourage you to get through at the first two or three as quickly as you can (they aren't that long or sophisticated) so that you can get to 4-7, the heart of the series. The first is especially juvenile so I can see how it'd be hard to get through it as an adult.
I don't agree with watching the movies instead, though. They suck unless you think of them as completely separate from the books. They leave so much out.

Aw. That got real.
Yeah, I don't even want to respond to that NHIE. I'm sorry @rachrobertson
Re: Let's play a game!

So, to be clear, you HAVE missed episodes? Sorry, trying to figure out the wording.
