How many times have u read the books?

Which one is your favorite so far. Are they getting even better as the characters develop over time?

DorkWad547?! has a valid point though, if your friend does not lie then why has she said 10, then said 5 and now you have said 2....someone told fibs somewhere, you can start at the low numbers and work upwards but it isn't possible to unread a book once you have read it....not that it matters or that I care but its just funny....

Adding to the current question, I'm interested to know how long it takes for you to approximately read each of the books?

A couple of hours for the first three (each), 3-4 hours for GoF and OotP.

I read the first four in a day when my friend lent them to me.

takes me about a day to read the first few and a couple of days to read the last two...

I have always been a slow reader though.

It takes me upwards of a week since my attention can waver after the first two and then I pretty much only read them when travelling

The first one takes me about 2 to 3 hours. Same with the CoS. PoA about 4 or 5 hours. GoF & OoTP about 11 to 12 hours.

Lol I thought that that was how long it takes you to read the books, and I was kind of curious as to how it takes you longer to read PoA than OoTP. SOmething was suss lol. Then I realised you were saying how many times you've read them.... and I decided to send this post.

OotP and GoF usually takes me a day or two to read. The rest I can do in less than a day. (Thats if its a Sunday and I don't have to work). But how many times. Some of you people are crazy. I've only read the series 3 or 4 times. (Reading them again just before HBP comes out).
