Harry Potter is the most popular in my library too. I read them long before I started blogging and I wouldn’t mind re-reading someday and putting my thoughts together on them. I loved the movies also. I pretty much like anything Harry Potter. lol.

What I love about the whole HP phenomenon is that it brought reading into the lives of millions of children. Children who, when they’ve finished the series, are going to search for another book and another. Must be the librarian in me. )

I’ve seen the Harry Potter movies, and I have all the books (thanks to my Dad who passes his favorite books to me when he’s done), but neither my husband or I have read them yet! Yikes!!

Here’s my Thinger!

Bree – we’ve enjoyed the movies, too, although we can’t show the DVDs when our two younger kids are around … great special effects!

Kathy – Since we bought the first 4 or 5 before the kids were reading them, they ended up on my bookcases. If I need the real estate I may move them to the kids’ shelves.

Shana – I just looked under “top books” on the “zeigeist” tab, then I saw that I had the #1 book. I don’t know if there’s a way to overlay your own library on top of the entire database …

Lenore – fantasty/sci-fi is not usually my taste, but this appealed to me somehow; then of course I felt compelled to read each new book and learn what happened next!

I’ve never read Harry Potter. Not for lack of wanting, more for lack of time. I saw that trailer too, Dawn, it looks good!

I’m the same with Twilight – read it pre-blogging days so I’ve never formally reviewed it. Maybe someday …

So how do you know which is the most popular book in your library?

We have all the Harry Potter books, but they’re not in the case with my books so I never thought to add them to my LT library.

I loved the Harry Potter books. Someone in my education class gave a presentation on the last book this week. He showed the trailer as well. Can’t wait for the movie! Also he said there is rumor Rowling may write another series with Harry’s second son as the main character. Yippee!!!
