Why do people who are anti-Potter spend so much time trying to force their opinions on others? Yeah, yeah free speech and all of that. But why spend so much time discussing something you dislike? And how many of you that don't like Harry Potter have actually read any of the books? Be honest please.

I would think it would be more worthwhile to talk about something you really love. But that's just me : ) Or do you love to hate Harry Potter?

Lot's of people will say--after reading a book--wow, I see the whole world in a different way now. But that could just be a result of the immediate emotion the book evoked. Can you think of a book that you read at least five years ago (other than the Bible or other religious text) that affects you to this day? And if so, what book and how has it affected you?

Don't you think there should be prizes for passing the magic number?

So, I just finished reading To Kill a Mockingbird, and I loved it :) My question is, if you've read it, why exactly is it called To Kill a Mockingbird? I have my own thoughts, just curious to hear other's thoughts.

In chapter one of Harry Potter and The Scorcerer's Stone, Professor McGonagall is speaking with Professor Dumbledore and she states this: "These people will never understand him! He'll be famous - a legend - I wouldn't be surprised if today was known as Harry Potter day in the future - there will be books written about Harry - every child in our world will know his name!"

Did J.K. Rowling predict the success of her own character and books?

I must have missed it... I did go thru it a bit quick. Who used magic late in life? I'm going to try to re-read a bit tonight after my kids are in bed, but I promised to loan the book to someone tomorrow!

I just read the book. Just one question: weren't we supposed to find out what Harry's parents did for a living in this book? Did I miss it or wasn't it there? Please let me know if you've seen it!

It's probably just because I read it so fast but I still have a few questions.

1. Who used magic for the first time?
2. What was so special about Petunia Dursley?
3. What was special about Harry having his mom's eyes?
4. What did Dudley see when the dementors attacked him?
5. What did Harry's parents do for a living?

Veritaserum.com said that these questions would be answered in the book but I couldn't find the answer.

Okay, I'm not stupid so no mean comments please. I probably read this book too fast because I wanted to finish it so I'm sure I just missed this stuff.
