Well its release day today - Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows has been officially on sale since 00:01 today.

Has anyone rushed down to ASDA to get a copy already?

Unfortunately there has been a lot leaked about the book and online copies released days ago but there is nothing like having the proper original book in your hand and with ASDA offering a huge discount on the excessive Â£17.99 RRP (I have heard they are selling it for Â£5!!).

Does anybody follow the series? And whos going to get the new book? I still have a bit of catching up to do first!

Well I am not a good reader at all, specially when it come to books and novels. I will just go and watch the movie.. which is fasinating and much better than spending hours on reading..

Alas ! The seventh and last book in the series. Ahh, but nice work by J. K. Rowling all the time... I've heard that the success of the novels has made Rowling the highest earning novelist in literary history. I love the character Harry & Hermione [Emma Watson] & watch all of his wizarding world movies, I've got a good collection of it's DVD's too

I found this book available on amazon as well on $17.99 price tag, I would prefer to watch the movie rather than reading a book.

I am comfortable with both; reading books as well as watching movies; albeit watching movies is far much better. It saves your precious time as well helps increasing eyesight life too

Reading a book is the best utilization of your leisure time

. It increases your vocabulary as well as your reading skills. I'd prefer reading the book first & then later on watch the movie. Here you can judge the art of direction of the director has put in his 'cut' as its very difficult making fictitious characters become live on screen. Anyways, if you hate the book, you can use it as your pillow later on

Especially for this movie you have to wait for another 3 years as it is going to be release somewhere in 2010.

I hate reading (unless it's some web design magazine). I've tried reading Harry Potter books and havent got past the first couple of pages...

I would like to read few pages if it help me for sound sleep and take me into the magical dream world.

I don't like Harry Potter either, it bores me :P.

I love the films but also prefer to read the books as well - its interesting to see the differences and discrepencies between them.

I love Harry Potter and it is one of the very few book and film series I have followed from beginning to end - Although I have only read the first 3 books, I own them all apart from the last one which I am going out to buy soon. I have also seen all the films that have been released so far.

Harry Potter -

Now that is amazing!

But then again it is Harry Potter so what do we expect - JK Rowling is the most rich author at the moment!!
