what prompted reading
my friends had read itfirst and then I did too
my dad read philosopher stone to me when i was little and i really enjoyed it so it inspired me to read more of the books.
My mum introduced me to them- she used to read them to me and my brother before bed.
I was forced too as I had read everything else in the school library and they wouldn't let me read the "adult" books.
i loved the brief decription on the back of the books and the reviews of the books were great
My Parents bought and read me the first book. They later incouraged me to read the others
I have always loved to read. The Chamber of Secrets was purchased for me and, after reading it, I was determined to read the entire series.
I knew loads of people who had read it and when the 7th book came out I thought I might as well read the series.
I enjoyed reading and my parents had read them.
I thought that the whole idea of the series was unique and creative.
Curiosity as to what the big fuss was about
I was in a competition with a friend to see who could read and finish the Philosopher's Stone first
It was when I first arrived in England 4 years ago and often heard young boys and girls talk about the Harry Porter books. This inspired me to read my first Harry Potter book, Philosopher's Stone.
For myself, well I didn't enjoy the first two as a kid, but in the last few weeks I've re-read them and read up to the Half-Blood Prince (of which I am half way through). I really thought I should give them another try and I absolutely love them.
I like fantasy books so it was an obvious choice, always been interested in fantasy.
My friend revcommended it. My mum also read most of it to me.
After watching the first film I wanted to know what happened in the others
The whole story plot itself, and the attention it gained from media publicised it furthermore.
I heard about Harry Potter and it sound good
Friends said they were good, mum and dad got me them as presents
They were bought for my older brother so I chose to read them myself.
Liked being able to independantly do it and I saw lots of others at my primary school doing it.

Did you read it?
I didn't need to ask for one as my parents read them too. My parents bought me the last one though.
I think i got the second book for christmas once i think

i like going to the cinema to watch watch the films
I find both the films and the books really entertaining but in different ways.
The books express so much more emotion and passion than the films.
Much better detail in the books which is missed in the films
I think the films can be inaccurate to the story in the books and omit interesting plots.
I love the books but I like the actors in the films
I prefer to watch films over reading the book
I love the films, but as they are limited in time they don't have the depth the books do.
I read the books before I saw the films, so in my head I already had a picture of how it would go.

it made me want to read more but i was gutted when the books ended.
I felt more confident reading larger novels

They opened my eyes to a wider range of vocabulary,
I read them independently at a young age when I was very shy and think reading helped my confidence.
I started reading a ot more, therefore imporving my abliliy.
Helped me develop greater vocabulary in the English language
I read them alone at a young age when my language/reading abilities still weren't fully developed.

fantasy books that involve lots of drama vampire books suspense books
Sience Fiction Utopian/ Dystopian fiction Adventure fiction
fantasy mainly but i loved reading philip pullmans his dark materials, george r r martins a song of ice and fire series etc.
Vampire books and other abstract book for example with werewolves and things like that. They also have to have some sort of romance in it.
First person narrative with interesting characters and an interesting story line, preferably with some kind of plot twist
More Rom-Com kind of books, however if any book can grip me I'm willing to read it
I enjoy a great range: Victorian literature, some fantasy and adventure, cultural and moving novels such as Khaled Hosseini's work, political novels such as Orwell and history based novels.
Action novels, classic novels, romance novels,etc
I like reading novels by African authors.
Pretty much any fantasy books - can be set in this world or another, can be steampunky, dark, medieval, futuristic, anything really. I also like books to be challenging but also easy to get into. For example the series 'A Song of Ice and Fire'
Some that are based on science, mystery murder/supernatural and adventure.
Normally historical fictions or fantasy novels that or non- fiction books on Rome
Action and/or fantasy, but not science fiction.
Books with a good story line that can keep adding more to the series.
Science fiction, Adult orientated Doctor Who literature, economic history, Russian history.
