Good casting. I'm glad Daisy finally found a job.

I can't wait for the next installment in the series. One of these days I'm going to have to start reading the books. They're just so damn long!!!

Yeah, that reading thing is a bitch. You have to, like, remember each word so you can understand the sentence and stuff. It's tough. I avoid it at all costs. In fact, I have a man-servant read and type on message boards for me.

Wessmith get the audio tapes that is how my mom reads them, dad still reads the books. I will bear the crowds in the first week of the release:(

suaw1211, I love to read, and I read a lot. I just don't get a lot of time to read now since my girl and her two sons moved in with me. Evenings just seem to fly by these days. And the Potter books are a huge undertaking. I drive 45 minutes to work every day, so maybe audio books would be something to look into. Still, it's no substitute for sitting down with a good book (hardcover), cigar (Ashton Magnum) and glass of wine for a couple of hours. I recently finished "The Historian," "The Templar Legacy" and "Map of Bones." Good books all.

Gotta agree with Wessmith, I constantly am reading, but Potter is the kind of thing that you need to reserve a weekend for, and when you are a product of the late 70's early 80's smoking pot and watching TV generation, you have the attention span of a tree frog. I'll probably see the movie as the first few were really good. Everyone keeps telling me how much better the books are though. My boys are 22 months old... maybe when they hit 2 and a half or three I'll start the journey with them.

They are awesome reads. They don't start getting long until the fourth book. You can probably bust out the first two in a week if you read a couple hours a day. Now I have to go read Eragon, since that movie is coming out this Christmas.

They are extremely fast reads. Even for how long 4, 5, and 6 are, you will put less time into them than many shorter books because they are just written so damn well. I have several friends who read 5 and 6 in one day.

But if you have like an hour or two before bed, you can read them then and probably finish them all pretty quickly. The only thing you have to watch out for is not being able to put the book down and going way over that hour or two.
