I set myself a task of re reading all of the books in august. Im currently on 'Order of the Phoenix'... my faves are probably the last 2 as they are the dark ones. I agree the first 3 are childrens books but the books have grown up with the readers... as you get to the final 2 they are very adult.
People often miss it but the books (Not so much the films) link closely with the holocaust, replace Jews with Muggle borns and it fits very weirdly. In the last 2 books especially there are some very important lessons you learn... I don't like the films personally, they lose the magic, anyone that only watches the films then insults the series are not allowed an opinion... its the books where the magic is.
