| Is anyone else still reading the series for the first time?
I'm getting close to being done with Order of the Phoenix. yes, I'm still reading the series. But I am totally addicted to the series. So I was just wondering if anyone else is still in progress along with me.

I'm reading through the first book right now. I've only ever seen the movies and skimmed some of the books. So far it's a fantastic read (not that I had a doubt!)

I continously re-read them in free time. If I don't have other books to read for either school or pleasure I always go back to the good ole' Harry Potter.

I'm rereading them, specifically to refresh my memory before the final movie comes out!  But of course, I'll return to them again sometime in the future.

I'm in the Prisoner of Azkaban right now. This is my first time through, and I JUST saw all of the movies before Deathly Hallows, Part Two was released, so I'm new to the franchise. I was just thinking how I'm a bit sad that I won't get to live through the excitement and fun that many of my friends did as they grew up with Harry Potter. Oh well. I enjoy them now, anyway.

I already finished the series and reread them too. Goblet of Fire especially. I love it that some people are discovering the books and reading them for the first time. It is really wonderful.

I've read the books 1-7 five times and have always read the corresponding book immediately after I saw the movie and made sure I saw the movie at least once after finishing the book. Just closed DH night before last and will hit the theater Sunday (#4) However, what is most fun (and extremely insightful) is to read the books 7-1. I've done that twice....try it, it's different.

I just finished my excursion through the series this morning, finishing Deathly Hallows. This time around it was my first time reading the last 3 books. I'd read the first 4 in middle school.

I read them out of order.
I saw part 1, and got Deathly Hallows for Christmas, so I only had years 1, 2 and 7.
So I started reading them. I read it like 1,2 half of 3, 7 the rest of 3, 4, 5, and 6.
So now I have about 100 pages left of Half-Blood Prince.
I plain to read them over again |

I am reading the series over again though. I'm currently reading Chamber of Secrets for a second time. I already finished reading the Sorcerer's Stone last week. I hope by September to get to Year 3 or 4.

I'm re-reading. I've nearly finished Chamber of Secrets, forgot about all the extra quidditch matches they missed out in the films!

Another thing, when I re-read the philosopher's stone, i couldn't believe sirius black was mentioned right at the beginning and I completely forgot about him in the third book. If I'd remembered, the prisoner of azkaban would've been ruined because you would've known he was good from the start!
