I started reading HP right after Chamber of Secrets was released. Since then, I've re-read the entire series before a new book was released but I've only read Deathly Hallows once. I'll have to do another read-through before the movie comes out.

Maybe it'll change after I do another read-through but I have no problems with DH. My least favorite book has got to be Order of the Phoenix. It was too long and Harry made so many stupid and frustrating decisions.

Overall, the series is absolutely fantastic. I'm not a huge reader but I'm constantly trying to find another book or series that'll capture my attention as HP does.

Gregorovitch had it, Grindelwald stole it from him, Dumbledore defeated him, and Draco disarmed Dumbledore on top of the Astronomy Tower. I've always thought the history of the Deathly Hallows and how Harry finally procures them all is too muddled for children to fully grasp.

I have all the audiobooks but all of them are Jim Dale. I guess I am going to have to try the others out... drat there goes another couple hundred to JK

The Stephen Fry version is night and day better compared to the Jim Dale reading. It's well worth it.

One mention of grandparents and there are 12 new posts. I really wish there were more HP books coming out.

At least we've got the (hopefully) awesome last movie still to come.
