The Casual Vacancy

Bought it Saturday trying to pry myself away from reading it till tomorrow so I have something to do!

Finished it yesterday. I enjoyed it and wanted to know how it ends but it's not like Harry Potter with its re-readable quality. Everything is just so grim and depressing

The reviews are so mixed, but I am really looking forward to reading it. My Mam's getting me it for Christmas since I loved the Potter series. Can't wait!!

I really really want to read it but books are so expensive here, might invest on my travels

I'm undecided as to whether i'm going to buy it or not.. there's so many different reviews and opinions

I got this for Christmas but haven't started reading it yet, I've been told that the characters aren't very realistic compared to the Potter series, we'll see.

I'd say they were realistic, people like them do exist. theyre just not very likeable so it can feel a bit of a chore to get through when you havent got a favourite character to cheer on lol

Fair enough, I hope it's worth it though, been looking forward for so long to read this :(

I got offered this book for my birthday! My mother took it away from me to read it herself so I didn't get the chance to yet..
I can't wait to read it omg so excited! :3

I got this at Christmas and I've been reading this at a very slow pace since I don't have too much free time due to exams. I think it's great, and I would recommend it. I must say I was shocked by JK's graphic detail, but this is no Harry Potter :P Can't wait to finish this...
