Just thought I'd let everyone know, most recently, almost a week ago now I think, I was able to buy The Maze Runner so I could finish it; as it had 62 chapters (which only had no more than a few pages per chapter), I only got to chapter 32, so I didn't have much left to read and I finished it quickly. Anyway, I decided to pick back up on the Harry Potter books and learn what isn't explained in the movies, I finished Sorcerer's Stone yesterday and just started on Chamber of Secrets shortly after, but I only have the first 3 books right now.

P.S. One thing I learned so far is that Hermione actually had a blonde moment lol.

I've been debating rereading for the God knows how manyeth time. They're really great books and the further you get with them the better they get.

I remember when I read the first book, I was like 8 or 9? Anyway, we had these toys for the cats, it was like a wand with a string and some fuzzball on the end. Well before I finished the book, I cut the string off and ran around trying to cast spells on my little brother.

The point is, they are the best books ever and if you haven't read them and only watched the movies, you're really missing out and good job for realizing that and picking them up! As for getting the rest, you could check used book stores and such so you can get a good deal for them. Yes, they are well worth the full price, but I'm stingey.

Anyway, hope you like them!

They really are great books, I especially can't wait to get to the fifth book, I've heard so many times that's the one where everything is explained about the similar connection between not just Voldemort and Harry, but Neville as well and the prophecy.

Just finished Chamber of Secrets this morning and started on Prisoner of Azkaban, since I don't own the rest of the series yet, I went to the Library and checked out Goblet of Fire, so I have it for 3 weeks.

More than enough time. They only take a day or two (if no life is included, or if your life is books).

Quit recently I have no life except in books, I'd say that's why it's only been a week and I'm already on the 3rd book. Even though I just started it though, I figured I would get an early head start and check out the 4th book for when I finish the 3rd because I'll immediately begin reading the next one. But I'll most likely finish it in a couple of days anyway and be done with Goblet of Fire before the first week is up.
