Harry Potter Series
by J. K. RowlingThis is an AWESOME series about a boy named Harry who, through the seven books, learns about his fate, his family, Horcruxes, dementors, Lord Voldelmort (fear of a name increases fear of the thing itself), and more. I strongly disagree with everyone who thinks these books are evil. It is about courage and love. Just because something is magic does not mean it is evil. I definitely give these books five chirps.

My sister had a Harry Potter themed b-day party and I was Luna. She is so awesome! She is not afraid to be different and has all these cool ideas. Like one of my favorite sayings;" I live in my own world. But it's ok, they like me here!!!"

Voldy... Bella... Snape... but y'all knew that.
Anyway, yes, very good books even though the titular character angsts annoyingly often from the fifth book onwards.

@ Lena- tried that; he made some remark about "a bunch of wizards running around with cats that have people's spirits in them." The McGonnagall Animagus concept put him off, I think...

I love the Harry Potter books. My fav book is the sixth and the movies are awsome too .Davied Yates is the best director yet. The pygme puff was so cute in the movie. I have read all the books exepet the seventh one but my mom read it to me. The first time she read it to me I almost cried
. I think I did because I thought Harry died, but I loved how it turned out in the end.

@Marg: Luna does rock!!!!! I love Tonks and Lupin too!!!! I wish they didn't die!!! But they kinda had to because of all the alchemical stages put into the story and stuff. Bellatrix is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO evil! I can't stand her!!!! And so is Dolohov!!!!!!!!!!!! Now that I've learned about all this alchemical stuff, I'm surprised that Luna didn't die, because the word "luna" means "the silver alchemical stage." But it also can mean the moon goddess, and in Latin it means "moon."
If you want to learn more about alchemical stages and all these other AWESOME things, you should read "Looking for God in Harry Potter" and "The Deathly Hallows Lectures: The Hogwarts Professor Explains Harry's Final Adventure"* The A in Adventure is actually the deathly Hallows sign!* Both are by John Granger. He's amazing!

Note that the moon is traditionally associated with madness (hence, "lunatic"). Therefore, Loony Lovegood is not necessarily a derogative nickname; it could have been coined by someone who knew the connotation and thought it was amusing. Or... not... *is seriously sleep deprived right now*
*deep breath*
BELLATRIX IS AWESOME.
*overdramatic exhale*
Now that's out of my system...
I mean, yes, she's evil as all get out, but then... "There are always, and only, the evil people, but some of them are on different sides." And besides, she has Evil is Cool going for her. Never mind that Evil is also completely whacko, the point is still valid. Perhaps even more so.
Speaking of which *shameless self-promotion* site has been updated. Huzzah, and that.

TNO, you and my sister would have alot of fun talking about Bellatrix;she loves her too. *Blech!* I don't know why though! She just says she's cool... We've gotten into arguments before, not just Bellatrix is cool vs. Bellatrix is not cool, but of how Luna is MUCH more cooler than Ginny. I side with Luna (obvioulsy) and she sides with Ginny. Ginny just doesn't appeal to me. She doesn't stick out as much as Luna does.
