I have read both the books and some of the movies. They're great, don't get me wrong, but wizards and witches and all of that shit aren't my thing. My friend refers to Harry Potter as 'Harry Pot-Smoker', and as that makes me laugh >cough< a lot >cough<, I don't believe a book such as this deserves to be called terrible.
The little boy who always knew he was different from the others and had big dreams of moving out from his abusinve uncles' hous and seeing the world! And all his dreams come true when and a half giant half human tells him hes a wizard. Also see cinderella because the only difference between this and that, is a kiss.
Harry Potter: ME SCAR HURTS!
me: SHUT UP HARRY! *pulls out an AK 47 and shoot harry in the scar*
