  I haven't read Harry potter yet but J.K.Rowling is sure an inspiration for many writers and her books are still will be a delight for readers.

  I watched her visualization and had become a great fan of harry Potter series (but who will read such a gigantic series of books if we can enjoy visual experience - kidding 😉) and will read it for sure after 17th of this month. 😁 and looking at the description that you have provided about her upcoming book. It seems that, this time Rowling had decided to make up a battle between inequalities in the society.

  Reading a book and watching a movie based on that same book are very different experiences. The visual experience is only a small part of the experience you get from actually reading the book yourself.
  First of all, when you make a movie based on a book, you cannot possibly show everything in the book. You have a time limit of 1.5 to maximum 2 hrs. The one making the movie has to decide what to include and what to leave. So, reading the book will be a richer and fuller experience, in my opinion.
  
  That said, I have read all the books of the Harry Potter series, and watched all the movies. I like them all, but I'm not such a huge fan. I wouldn't mind reading her new book sometime later, if I find the time.. But I'm not very eager about that book right now..

  I think, we should rather read realistic novels. Fantasy is a strict no no in real life!
  
  P.S: Thank God, there is no new Potter book now, although her imagination and creativity is superb. Want to read casual vacancy. 😀
  #-Link-Snipped-# #-Link-Snipped-# and all potter fans what do you say about this? 😨

  ^^ Don't dismiss fantasy totally as a useless thing..
  
  Fantasy or realistic, for any novel to be interesting, the plot should be unpredictable.. For that, the characters in that book should be complex and unpredictable too.. Ultimately, most of the novels end up talking about human nature or the human spirit, though the actual base of the story turns out to be something else. You can't talk about human nature in an efficient way unless you take into account how complex it actually is. So, fantasy or realism, we can gauge a book based on the layers and shades of characters in that book.
  
  That is probably why, my most favorite character in the whole Harry Potter series is Severus Snape. He is totally unpredictable and very complex. His actions will have a motive which is not immediately obvious, but will have far reaching consequences going a long way into the story..

  For the same reason, you can also try the Lord of the Rings series.

  #-Link-Snipped-# You finally made me write a story on me 😁
  
  Harry Potter 7-3 : The Fall and Rise of Voldi - Topre Respectively.
  
  Issue had a dream of being dead. In his dream a girl says "You're going to face one of the dangerous fictional characters because of not liking a fictional story." and vanishes.
  
  Suddenly Issue being cursed - feels like being pulled into a void. He opens his eyes and then - sees nothing - everything was white. As he walks forward - he sees a man "The Dark Lord" - turns towards Issue in a glee.
  ...........................................
  
  "Where are we?" Issue whispers in terror
  
  Voldemort, "Hell."
  
  "What?" Issue shrieked - "I don't want to be dead" he cried.
  
  "Don't worry kid - here, no one can kill us!" Voldemort says, soothing Issue.
  
  Issue still sobbing with fear while Voldemort was looking at him, soothing and said glaring, "Come on, Why is this Kolaveri D?"
  
  Issue in rage of anger bursts out of his hatred looking at Voldemort, he screams: #-Link-Snipped-#

  😁 #-Link-Snipped-# So, you're serious about your character. (If - Consult Rowling 😛)
  
  #-Link-Snipped-# Ya, you're right Issue spelled it wrong hence Voldemort stays alive. 😁

  Now there is news about Jo Rowling coming with a new book about Harry Potter.

  This eighth book about Harry Potter is going to be an Encyclopedia of the Harry Potter World. All the tit-bits that Jo wanted to add to her books, but couldn't because of the size limitations will be included in this.
