No, I love all that wizard stuff, José - but i'm a lord of the rings girl and I couldn't bond with Harry Potter as I find him annoying.
Plus I had to get students to compare the first book to the film way back when. It caused a few sleepless nights, lesson plan wise, and it took the magic out of it.
Sometimes I think the Potter experience takes over the book itself - like people read it because of this potter frenzy - it's become a trend rather than a story to me. She probably hates the way that the book has become a 'monster' almost.
Chaz saw the film the other day and said it was rubbish. He said they covered the first two hundred pages in twenty minutes! I think you could watch the films without reading the books and vice versa as the transfer over to film has not been as faithful as LOTR's.
