Just wanted to say that you're not alone! I've read the books three 
times each and the whole series of tapes once and I'm going through 
the tapes yet again. I tried to get my mind off by reading Dahl and 
Eddings but they don't hold the same fascination and I find myself 
drawn over and over again to HP. I can just picture myself going to 
the movies over and over again when it begins and for the second time 
in my life, I'm eagerly looking forward to the month of July again 
when the next book is released. For the record, I'm not even an 
impressionable youngster..I have 2 kids and I have NEVER been this 
attached to a book/series. Just today, I handed out prizes for a HP 
contest I organised, to students of a school where I'm helping out in 
the library. 

So , happy reading!!
