I definitely think HP should be up there - they have good taste  I think Lloyd Alexander's books should be up there too. I don't think A Separate Peace belongs there... but Madeline, well she's the best!

It's so hard not to re-read it! I mean it's just sitting there on the shelf, all by its self . . . In fact, this is like my third or forth time of re-reading the series.  | |

Good point. I know when I read Order the second time, I got so much more detail I had inadvertently passed up the first time.

True, . Unfortunatly for me, however, it's my knitting, addiction to (video) games, and then those (darned) homework's that's been eating up my time to read OotP a third time (or so I think; I've lost track  ) and really slow reading it too because of it. But still, it gives me a reason to not to get tired of the series and take the time to take notes of the book to figure what might happen next in the next installment.

haha I'm already re-reading them. I figured since the 6th one is coming out this summer I should probably refresh my mind on everything since it's been a while since I've read them  | |

HP is definitely a book to re-read.
When I try to read other books again, I get bored quickly. But in the case of HP, I have read the first 4 books nearly 15 times each, since I bought them and I still love them. I haven't managed to make OOTP reach that score, though.
