I am obsessed... like everyone else

Alright. I have a confession. To start- I never read the Harry Potter books. I tried, but it just wasn't something that I was very interested in. Although I do love to read and I did watch all of the movies, but only because Ryan wanted to. Although he's never read the books either. I don't really care to be like everyone else or really get into anything like that. I think people who become obsessed with things like that are stupid. It's a book, so what. So... when the twilight series came out I felt the exact same way. Stupid. Even when my best friend's read and loved the books, (they don't like reading anything other then a people magazine.) I still resisted. But with them now making the first book into a movie I made an impulse purchase at Wal-mart check out and bought the first book. The first 200 pages I was thinking that I wanted to throw it in the garbage. But then it kind of got going... I stayed up until almost 3 in the morning reading the "stupid" book. So, to all of those who have read it and told me how good it is and that I should read it- I'm sorry, you were right. It was VERY good. Now I am going to say what everyone said to me- if you haven't read it, it's actually a fun read and you should.. go read it. If you would like, you can borrow my copy. Now I'm one of the dumb people watching the trailer online and CAN'T wait for the movie to come out. If you would like to see it go HERE! I also realised that there are more books in the series. If anyone has the second book and would let me borrow it I would greatly appreciate it. Although I'm not sure that my family would. Not much got done while I was reading. Although Ryan did find it amusing to watch my face as I read it in bed last night. Gave him a good laugh. So I'm officially one of the obsessed now. Great.. I'm one of "them".

Welcome aboard! I have all the books, but it would cost almost as much to send them as buy them. I got the first three books at WalMart for about 8.50 each. The newest was about 18.00.
