I was a fan of harry potter in the beginning, once it started to get popular and the movies started my interest died down because it became overexposed. I agree the plot doesn't really interest me that much normally I probably wouldn't read it. I have it in my amazon basket I will maybe order it nearer the time, as the library will almost definitely get it in anyway

I will read it because I am still an Harry Potter fan after all those years and I am just curious. But I didn't read any summary of a new book. I will keep it a complete surprise I think

i really hope she will write someting fantasy again because this book is really hideous :S I still have to bought the book. I really want to read it in order to make my own opinion... But it is clear that the reviews and the opinions of people who read it are not very enthusiastic... So many expectations were put in this book, however...

I'm an Harry Potter fan and I'm curious to read The Casual Vacancy. As you guys, I wasn't much interested after reading the plot and I'll probably get it from library, but I don't have high expectations.

Im on the wait list at the library but as there are some 100 people in front of me for about 20 copies, its going to be a while... i dont think I will enjoy it though but i have to at least try it, it's J.K. Rowling

I bought it around the time it came out. I haven't gotten far as I've been so busy with school. You have to look at it as if she didn't write Harry Potter. It's very different and definitely more towards the adult audience. I'd be interested to see everyone's thoughts after reading it. I hope to finish it sometime this month.

I'm reading it now. Not liking it at all! The writing is odd, the characters are annoying and some unbelievable. The story is not at all interesting. Perhaps I had such insanely high hopes for it that it was doomed from the beginning. I'd love to hear what you guys think about it!

I started reading more now that I have time. There just is so many characters so far that it's hard to keep up with who is who. It's not lively yet but I'm not sure what is to come. It's hard to fully get into sadly. I agree with whitegold.
