I have been living under a rock
Even though the Harry Potter Books is what everybody is reading, everybody is talking about and everybody is raving about, I really never bothered with the series until now.
I have never seen the movies either, I guess I am not into the trends and follow what is popular. But all I have been hearing lately as of last week was the release of the final book, HP and the Deathly Hallows and it FINALLY got me interested in buying the books, I need to read them for myself to see what all the fuss is about LOL.
Admittedly, I don't read much anymore, not as often as I would have liked, I was a major bookworm in my early teens but now I just spend my time online, watching TV, work and uni, there is no time for books in between :(
Instead of buying one book and seeing if I liked it, I just bought the boxset with the first six books. It was AUD$110.00 for the paperback version, I wasn't gonna pay double for the hardback covers, however.
And some pics of my boxset, just 'cause I want to show them off:
So how good are these books? Is it really that good as everybody makes out to be? I have only started the first one, so I hope I spent my money well ;)
