I haven't started reading them yet but I saw the first HP movie a few weeks ago on TV. I'm interested in reading the books now.

I enjoyed the heck out of the books...JKR has, if anything a delightful sense of humor...and there are a lot of tongue-in-cheek things in her books.

Told my parents I was taking Erin to see it and now they are all nervous "should she go see it? I heard it was really dark ... and it has all that 'witchery' stuff in it."

Thing is, they will never read the books themselves. Can't even get my dad interested in the manly novels of Patrick O'Brian.

*sigh*

Reconfirmation that I always was the 'different' one in the family.

Harry Potter is a very enjoyable series! I've read all five at least three times now!
