It's always a joy to be spreading the love of reading, and I've always thought that the Harry Potter series are well written and thus worthy of its popularity.
I'm not sure if I have mentioned it but I'll buy the e-books. It's always cumbersome to bring them out because they are heavy and awkward, but also because I'm in my mid-twenties.
p/s: I used to use an opaque book cover for questionable titles, now it's on my iPhone.
p/p/s: The movies are not done very well, but kids seem to love them and pick up reading the books anyway! So I guess it's a good thing?

The Financial Times articles I quote above states that the books will be sold exclusively through the website but compatible with "with a range of e-reader devices including Amazon’s Kindle, Apple’s iPad, and Sony’s reader".
