The first book i read in the hp series was book 3 (my mum got it for my little sister for christmas one year) - I didn't even know they were a series! Not even after I had finished reading it! Then my older sister goes, "um... i think they follow on from one another". So i went and found the first book and read it (because i was already addicted). I didn't even realise that so many people were so crazy about them, i just thought "this looks like an interesting book".
I think i've read them all about 5 times now. My favourite is probably GoF, but I love them all. I'm re-reading PoA now because the movie'll come out soon and i want to reaquaint myself with everything that happens.
This is going to sound weird, but I consider myself lucky that I was unemployed the weekend HP5 was released. I had paid for it while I still had a job, and then quit my job the week before. Although I finished it in one day, I still needed the next week to re-read it again and again, because I find things different every time I read a book.
