What's wrong with that? That book is a lot better than any movie that's come out.

You're shit, more like.

Blue_Hefner, I don't think you can read. You just like looking at the pictures in all those books you listed, don't you?

Why not respect we have different opinions.
If not no reason to make this list.
It is actually quite interesting why other people think a book is exceptionally good when you self think it is nothing special.

I did read most of the first Harry Potter book and think it was nothing special - especially the language and explanations were not so good. The movies are a lot better. Normally I think books are much better compared to movies, but not for Harry Potter.

Everyone is happy to respect a person's right to make their own choices, but people also have a right to ridicule some of those choices.

If you don't want to be ridiculed, then don't rate shit books highly. See, life is simple.

Considering there were no pictures in the books, no.

You still only look at the pictures though.
