I wanted some books to read to my children a few years ago and
as everyone was raving about Harry Potter I decided on these
although I couldn't imagine anything worse and expected to be
bored stupid.

My kid's got up and left after the first chapter but I was hooked
and have never looked back. I have my favourites but have loved
them all, some of my theories worked out but most did not!

Not once have I been dissapointed.

Everyone who also fell in love with HP feels as though the story
is ours to tell but it never was, it was alway's J K Rowlings
baby. I opened book 7 with an open mind and although it wasn't
how I expected it to go I was never going to dislike JKR's ending
as it was always her story to tell, if it had gone how I expected
then why read it? I wouldn't have cried over Hedwig, Dobby, and
Fred, I wouldn't have felt elation over Neville and Molly and I
wouldn't be totally lost now without them. I do wish there had
been more about Hogwarts in book 7 but there wasn't so I'll get
over it.

All I can say now to JKR is THANK YOU.
