So whose finished Potter?

[Kinky Gerbil]

Just finished it, what did everyone think?

Thought it was ok but nothing special.

 

[Mendoza]

I havent seen him moan on here for ages, who finished him off?

 

[Bluejuice]

He dies then comes back to life in case anyone doesn't already know

BORING

 

[Grendel]

I thought the bit where he caved that twat Weasley's skull in with a pickaxe when he was stoned was quality.

 

[Tesco in Disguise]

who's finished potter?

 

[spacey]

Yes, finished on tuesday night.

It was good.

Does she explain the biggest mystery of all?

How she managed to become a multi-millionaire of the back of such piss poor writing?

Now that is magic!

 

[Easy 10]

Bit daft how its never revealed who knocked up Hermione. Too obvious to be Harry. I reckon shes carrying the spawn of VOLDEMORT up her clacker.

 

[Publius Ovidius]

Yup finished it yesterday

Quite brilliant piece of writing. She tied up all the loose ends and the final three chapters were excellent to read.

the Epilogue was also very good.

Shame the series has now ended.

I heard somewhere that the first print run went almost entirely to school libraries and there wasn't much of a marketing campaign surrounding it.

 

[Scoffers]

I did yesterday, thought it was really good

 

[Scotty Mac]

disapointing to be honest

 

[essbee]

Harry Potter!

Great for kids 6-10. However, when they read something
decent they'll reliase what a load of old tosh it was.

Written by a literary dwarf.

And read by them, so it's a good match.

I might go back to reading The Famous Five, and Old Yeller, which would spank hp.
Or not.

You fib, and yah boo cos Simpkins have stolen my pen.

 

[MattBackHome]

Really really good, right up to the 'Kings Cross' bit which is like Neo meeting The Architect in The Matrix but not as good. And the '19 years later' bit is complete and utter toilet.

My mum used to work in one of England's biggest book wholesalers, who supply libraries, colleges and so on. Staff were able to buy unwanted stock at knock-down prices.

She's still kicking herself for not carting off a job lot of first editions of the first Harry Potter, which instead probably ended up being pulped or returned to the publisher. No-one knew then that copies would eventually be worth a couple of grand each...

Completely agree
