I'm a slow reader, but I'm telling you, you are right, it's AWESOME so far! A lot of my friends recommended it to me personally. It's just so amazing and I hear it only gets better. It really is hilarious and original and full of adventure and just so well written!

It is! And athough the Hungarian transation is realy good, I wish I had all in original. I read the 1st, 6th, and 7th in Engish but woah... mindblowing!

I started reading when I was 7, and began learning English only 3 years later The last two I read in Engish at first, because there were spoiers everywhere! If I had waited for the translations, I would have known the whole story by the time it came out. When the 7th came out, I bought it the day it came out in England as well, and when I arrived home, I sat down with tears in my eyes (I waited for it for 9 years) and the moment I opened it, the end was told in TV. I was extremely frustrated. So, the earlier you read, the less spoiler you hear Soo... you read it in Arabic? (Sorry, it's hard to write this long sentences in English, I hope you understand what I ant to say, even though it's probably full of mistakes

Haha, you're right. I knew the story before I watched or read many HP movies and books! This is so unlucky that you finally got the book and the end was ruined for you right before you finally got to read it! At least I don't have to worry about spoilers. I know the whole story, so I'm just reading because my friends told me it would be great and even better than the movies (and they were right)! No, I live in America and speak English better than I speak Arabic and I'm just reading it in English. I don't even know if an Arabic version exists! It probably does, though. I saw fourth HP movie, I think it was, in the Middle East, however, and there were Arabic subtitles on the bottom of the screen. (Don't worry, your English is great!)

Oh yes, they left out the best jokes! And for example Peeves is not even in the movies, not for a single minute! But the Philosopher's stone and the Chamber of secrets movies are more or less following the book, the others not really. For example in the Order of phoenix movie there's no quidditch at all! I think David Yates didn't really get the point of the story. The first two movies were son English, it couldn't be more, it got the feeling the books have, but... I was so excited about the last movie, but honestly, it was a complete shame. Terrible... Anyways, Harry Botter sounds funny Though in Hungarian we have a stronger p, and in general there are more differences between voiced and voiceless consonants. So for us even Potter in English pronounciation sounds strange. A lot of the names are translated, but even those that weren't are pronounced elsehow. Hermione for example is too difficult for the most Hungarians Like for Victor Krum, hihi

That's cool! I don't think I've ever heard Hungarian or even a Hungarian accent before. You didn't like the last movie?!? I loved every minute of it!!! (But I didn't read the last book, so I probably would have agreed a bit with you if I had...) I am surprised Peeves isn't in the movies! I do remember Nearly Headless Nick, though. I haven't seen the older movies in years!

If it was a seperate movie, than okay, it would be really good. But as the adaptation of the book, well not really.

Yeah, my brother says with movies of books, the best way to enjoy them is to pretend they are just movies, and not movies of books. I know I really hate it when movies screw up my favorite characters from books. It happens all the time!

Well in this case you're ucky you haven't read them yet. I love the characters in the film, though for example, Neville is blond, such as Petunia and Dudley, Cedric has black hair in the books and Snape's supposed to be skinnier, and Harry.. yessss, black hair and green eyes, which I'm proud of because I have green eyes too, which is rather rare, and Daniel has brown hair and bue eyes, but anyway the're all great. Now the story is copletely ruined, and the feeling... So you have a brother

I have two brothers and no sister! You? Yeah, I noticed right away in the book that Harry's eyes are supposed to be green! This is important, because Harry has his mother's eyes. The movie messed that up, I realize! (Wow, you have green eyes? That's beautiful! My friend has Scottish and Irish blood and she, too, has green eyes!) Neville is blond in the book? I never knew! That sad thing is that I imagine all of the characters while reading as the actors from the movie. I would have rather used my own imagination, but the movies have muddled my mind and so it's too for that late now. I still like the movies, though... Just not as much as I'm liking the books! (I'm reading the second book right now... It is SO SO hilarious!!! It really makes me laugh! That Gilderoy Lockhart is so arrogant and he doesn't even see it! Haha! And Harry and Ron and Hermione are just so funny!)

I have only one brother, Gergely (or Geri), and he's 15. Yeah, I have green eyes, and dark brown hair by the way, and I have a really mixed blood My family is rather mysterious about it... I know of Hungarian, German, French and Jewish relatives for sure, but that's all I know. Both of my parents have brown eyes, I have green, and my brother blue. And he's blond. Pretty weird... All my cousins are blond too (okay one just used to be), I'm the black sheep or what
I imagine some characters as the actors too, for example I didn't even remember Ucle Vernon has black hair. Congrats for finishing the first book
Lockhart is bloody idiot... And I just love Ron, really, he's soo sooo funny... just pay attention to the things he says as a joke.

I am lovely indeed They are really a great trio, Harry "choose" them wisely. Hermione knows every single book by heart, and is excellent in solving riddles, but Ron is the only one who's from a wizard family, so he knows things they don't, and also his father works in the ministry. I love Arthurs Weasley anyway All the Weasleys actually, except Percy. I hate him. Very much. My ex-boyfriend was somehow like you too, he saw only the first three movies, and he was really happy afterwards. It was also very funny, because he started guessing. He's really creative... I almost died of laughing. You know what I like? When Hermione bugs Ron about his eating habbits. It happens pretty often, and it's hilarious

You'll hate him too, believe me. Now he's just a child, don't forget it...He simply vanished from the movies, but he has a bigger part in the books.
Ron and Hermione was always my favourite couple in HP. I've always known Harry and Ginny would be together, but now I read it a really long ago, and in the movies... they just have nochemistry at all, or I don't know, but they seem to be a terrible pairing. But I remember how happy I was for them in the books.

Yeah, everyone says Harry and Ginny are too tense and serious together in the movies. I agree and think all the movies in general are too serious. Maybe all would have been better if the movies tried to include more of JK's humor and light-hearted scenes of friendship and such. Yes, Ron and Hermione are my two favorites! Yeah, I don't remember Percy at all in the movies, but he's all over the books! (Maybe the movie folks thought he wouldn't be too popular, so they didn't put him in as much.) Okay, well, I'm on the third one now and Percy is really starting to act full of it as Head Boy and he has no sense of humor. (I think it's hilarious how much Ron doesn't like him!) But I still don't hate Percy (yet). I'm hating the fortune telling teacher, though...

Oscar Wilde was an Irish writer. He's famous of his scandalous quotes, and his novel, the Picture of Dorian Gray is on of my favourite books. I'm very lazy too, I sould tidy up my room...

I knew he sounded familiar!!! A friend of mine read that book for a project three and a half years ago! Where the guy's portrait/soul gets uglier while he remains handsome (on the outside)...

Yeah, that's the one I'm talking about. His friend paints a portrait of him, because so handsome and young (Oscar Wild was openly gay, and so was the 80% of his characters) and Dorian wished his portrait would grew old instead of him.

And then in the end, at his death, his corpse became hideous just like his personality while his portrait became handsome once again. (If I remember right, from what my friend told me...)

Something like that. I've read it in English and Hungarian too (English first), but I don't have the copy, my English teacher lended me hers.

Thanks! I read a lot of things in English, I really enjoy it. It's kind of an obsession to me. And I watch a lot of movies and series as well. Recently I became really fond of British comedies, I haven't watched them before, but it's really good for me now űI have to learn their accent. It's hard American accent is so much easier...

You're right. The Potters and the Weasley's should definitely visit the zoo, just like this!
