Harry Potter is a series of seven fantasy novels written by the British author J. K. Rowling. The books chronicle the adventures of the adolescent wizard Harry Potter and his best friends Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger, all of whom are students at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. The main story arc concerns Harry's quandary involving the evil wizard Lord Voldemort, who killed Harry's parents in his quest to conquer the wizarding world and subjugate non-magical people (Muggles).

I too agree. One of my friends actually started reading the Harry Potter series before the movies started to come out. She told me to read them, but I was hesitant at first. By the time I finally did pick up the Sorcerer's Stone, talk of the movie had already started. I finished the book before the movie and, as usual, I was disappointed by the movie. Especially the sixth one. They changed the ending completely!
The books are a definite must read. I still like the movies, but love the books.
