IT’S THE SERIES that just never ends.
The first Harry Potter book was published 20 years ago, but there’s no end in sight – it was announced yesterday that two more books from the Harry Potter universe by JK Rowling will be released this year.
Have you read any of the books? Or has it passed you by?

Read them all, but the biggest thrill is now seeing my 9 year old daughter reading them…
Several times. I’ve lost count.
Each one several times. I’ll never be able to read Dobbys death without tearing up.
Its up there with if you don’t like Beyonce, or im not an Ed Sheerin fan. Its shocks, almost horrifies people. Never so much as read a page of it, and hopefully never will.
His Dark Materials trilogy wipes the floor with Harry Potter series. Its better on so many levels
@Dermot Lane: I’m a big Potter fan but the Dark Materials trilogy are a great series. Bitterly let down by the film a few years back.
@tismeself: I’m reading it again at the minute, in preparation for the new one coming out soon. It’s as good as I remembered.
@Dermot Lane: I wouldn’t say better, but different, and I agree that His Dark Materials is a great read, would recommend.
Considering the target audience age, is nine and three quarters and I am a grown up, NO!
I could think up a much stronger stronger response than ‘Nah, they are not for me.’
I’ve read them all. Tolkien or CS Lewis, they’re not…
No. Because I am not a child.
@David Murphey: you need to find your inner child ..
@David Murphey: It says have you ever read them. So where you never a child? Or is it a benny button scenario?
Harry potter’s good and all… But the Lord of the rings trilogy is vastly superior in every aspect
People are more interested in reading Paul williams story’s,great creative fiction.
No interest in them at all..
No, nor have I seen any of the films.
No particular reason except that I had other priority viewing.
Read the first one.
Jk Rowling did not write the next 2 books coming out nor did she write cursed child. Rubbish it was and will not read those poor imitations
@Sean Kelly: Ya legend
have your say
