I just knew I had to write this makala after seeing a lot of mashabiki debating on the topic:

"Are the vitabu au sinema better?"

So first of all, my upendo for Harry Potter didn't start from the books. My mother kept recommending them to me, but I was younger when the vitabu came out first. That days, I always judged a book kwa its cover. So when I saw a bila mpangilio boy with a scar on his forehead standing and 7 vitabu about him, I said, "Mom, stop. I don't wanna read it, I feel like it won't be interesting,"

My mom alisema ok, and we left the bookshop. But from that siku on, my Marafiki started watching Harry Potter like crazy. I was left out because I didn't even know a word they were saying. Who the heck is Voldemort? What is a "muggle"? My best Marafiki were potterheads and I knew I had to learn it, so the inayofuata siku me and my sister started watching Harry Potter.

My English wasn't that good, and we opened the sinema in English. I couldn't get a thing from Harry Potter. What is the purpose and wewe might find this funny but Minerva was scaring me. At the first scenes I quickly shut the TV, and didn't watch the movie for YEARS.

Uhh well.. One day, I thought I was enough grown up for the series to not scare me, and I opened them. The sinema were amazing and as a stupid kid I couldn't help but have a crush on Harry-sorry about that. I still didn't get some parts of the sinema but I kinda got the wizarding world and the ndoto JKR made just amazed me! Plus, I related to Hermione a lot, so I bought thousands of Hermione stuff.
I kept kusoma fanfics on the internet, watched the sinema a thousand times again and again, and finally became a potterhead. I couldn't live a siku without thinking of the sinema lol.

Since I read a lot of fanfics and liked the first sinema the most that days, I shipped Hermione and Harry. My opinion hasn't still changed though, but that's not the point. When I learned Ginny and Harry were together, I was in shock. Plus in many zaidi reasons, (mostly the hermione x harry ruining) I started to dislike Ginny.

That's when people started to force me to read the books, and since I watched the sinema and they got me in the potter world I couldn't think the vitabu were better. And I knew I had to read them because people wouldn't accept me as a Potter head.

But I am a big bookworm, and the siku I started kusoma the books, I finished them all in a week. Ofc, I'm still periodically kusoma them because they are my fav books! So I just preferred the books, still do. First of all, the vitabu explained everything in details, and made everything clear that were mixed up in movies. For example, I missed why Dobby was saved and while kusoma the vitabu it turned out Lucius threw the sock and Dobby caught it, since Lucius threw it, Dobby was free.

And I didn't get the scary soul-suckers and what they were doing in Hogwarts. But in the books, its clearly explained that the dementors came all the way from Azkaban to protect the building from Sirius, but got to the Dark Lord's way later.

Through books, I managed to like characters better ( for example I loved Ron in the vitabu but disliked him in the movies) and Hermione became my inayopendelewa character. I like Snape zaidi in sinema and same for Ginny (even though I dislike both Ginny's) and its just it.

Just a small problem: since I watched the sinema first, I imagined the character appearances in the movie, though in the book most didn't match. In the book, Hermione has big front teeth, in movies, she's perfect. In the book, Dudley is blond, in the sinema he is a brunette. In the books, Harry has green eyes and Ginny has brown eyes, in sinema they have both blue.

Not counting that appearance detail, the vitabu are better for me. Just an opinion :)

C'ya !
