Give in to your hunger. Feel the power of the Dark Side. The Force compels you to read these books.

Of course I have read them all!!! LOL, being from the UK I feel compelled too really - She is a very addictive writer - her books have the type of humour in them that only adults tend to 'get' I think anyway!!! Can't wait for the final installment - BOOHOO - can't believe that it is the last book in the seris!!!

I'm just beginning the 5th book the second time around. I had to refresh my memory in preparation for the new book coming out this summer. I am picking up on things that I did not pick up on with the first reading of the series. I must admit, I will be very sad to see this wonderful series end.

I showed this picture to my wife, and all she had to say was.... "we are going to England...'God save the Queen!"

I took a private car tour to Oxford- and I would highly recommend it. A guide comes to your hotel and you have their undivided attention all day. She was a local of course so was able to tell us of all the Harry Potter spots not only in Oxford but in London too.
