Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

By J K Rowling...I have read all seven of these books and thoroughly enjoyed them.  Several years ago when the series first started I let my boyfriend (now my husband) borrow book one on a business trip.  He finished it and couldn't wait to get home to start book two, so he bought a copy at a book store.  Ever since then he and I have read each one as they came out.  The year book 7 came out he was in France and couldn't wait to come home to read my copy...so he bought the british version there.  We have also listened to the books.  Jim Dale is an incredible reader and does voices and everything.  I decided in preparation for the movie's release in November to listen to book 7.  I was immediately swept up in the story.  The audio book is 17 discs long and took me over a month to listen.  I am not in the car that much!  Anyway, now that it is over, I see myself starting with book one again.  The other part of this is that kids who enjoy this book often ask me for books that are similar to this series.  I am stumped as a Librarian...as there are no series that measure up to Harry Potter.  There are books that are released to be similar...but I have found that none has sucked me in like Harry Potter and his friends Ron and Hermione.
