A series of books that are highly criticized by illiterate and utterly STUPID morons. No, Harry Potter is not a rip-off of LOTR. I'm reading LOTR now and they are different books.

A bestselling fantasy book and film series written by English author J.K. Rowling.
Originally intended to be a children's book series. However, the intelligent and whimsical world of a boy who's miserable life suddenly transforms around him into an epic journey through a fantastic world of wizards, witches and mystical creatures, where every aspect (regardless of how small) is magical,
has attained the incredibly rare achievement of accessibility to readers of any age.
The central story follows Harry Potter as he attends the wizarding school Hogwarts, located outside of Hogsmeade, Scotland.
The stories revolve around Harry's interaction and exploration of a world parallel to our own, filled with magical foods, vehicles, monsters and sports.
The story's primary challenge and danger, lies in the return of a powerful, old enemy who had destroyed Harry's immediate family. Leaving him marked by a scar on his forehead.
Each of the seven books in the series represents a single "year" at Hogwarts. Each containing an episodic challenge that is to be overcome, whilst maintaining a coherent plot which encompasses the entirety of the series. Every book also features the three main protagonists coping with the gradual changes of puberty and social responsibility, as their eyes are opened to the, often times, harsh world around them.
Every book also reveals more about the world itself, including traditions, other schools and life outside of school.
Pivotal are his relationships with these two friends: Hermione Granger (A know it all bookworm) and Ronald Weasley (Harry's earnest, faithful best friend)
Like most of the characters in the series, both Ron and Hermione gradually evolve past these initial stereotypes into rich characters and change drastically as they become adults.
All an all, a very enjoyable book series that becomes increasingly darker and deeper as one progresses through the series.
Very rarely does an author create a world that is really cool AND that the reader would actually want to live in and be part of.

Harry Potter is a very fun and enjoyable series. Don't be quick to judge, as you may miss something truly great.

Actually, a really good series of books by J.K. Rowling.
Although Lord of the Rings is entirely original, and very good, it's no good for young kids because of the slower-moving plot.
Harry Potter is better for younger people.
The five books out now are:
Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone
Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
There are two more books left to come.

A dishonest boy from a popular series of novels written by J.K. Rowling that claims he can do magic, ride a flying broomstick, and even vanquish the almighty Lord Voldemort, but really, always has the help of his more talented friends, including the aged gay man named Dumbledore, the dimwitted retard named Ron, and the sexy & smart girl named Hermione. Harry Potter secretly plans to kill Voldemort because he is his only competitor, then he plans to take over the Ministry of Magic and recruit more villains. Overtaking the government and Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry is his main goal.

Harry Potter is the best book series you can ever read. Some people say the movies ruin it but I think the movies make it a lot better but I suggest you read the books first it makes more sense if you do. Others think it’s just meant for kids. Those people are FUCKING IDIOTS. I admit the first couple of books might seem just fun and light hearted but rust me the amount of foreshadowing in it is unreal. Harry Potter is a book series you should definitely read. I envy you because you still have the joy of reading the series.
Bitch ass hoe: yo Harry Potter sucks and is for kids
God of all humanity: you’re a fucking idiot go die Harry Potter is the bes
