Rating: Summary: This is the best, Best, BEST harry potter book Review: I have read all the Harry Potter books and I have just finished the third. I looved it! It was definitly the best story of all three. My favorite part were the last 5 chapters. There are so many surprises in them, things you would never guess otherwise. I think that anyone who likes to read should definitly read this, but I think you would find that you like it if you've read the 1st 2.

Rating: Summary: WONDERFUL, WONDERFUL, WONDERFUL Review: I HAVE READ ALL THREE BOOKS NOW AND I BY FAR ENJOY THIS 3RD BOOK THE MOST. A DOCTOR SAW ME CARRYING THIS BOOK AND SAID,"I SEE YOUR READING HARRY POTTER." I COULD HAVE FAINTED, BECAUSE I AM 46YRS. OLD. I SAID SOMETHING ABOUT NOT GROWING UP YET, AND HE INFORMED ME HE WAS GETTING READY TO START READING THE SERIES HIMSELF! I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO THE 4TH BOOK IN THE SERIES. I HOPE WE HEAR MORE FROM PROFESSOR LUPIN AND SIRIUS BLACK. I ALSO HOPE HARRY HAS A BETTER SUMMER WITH HIS AUNT AND UNCLE DURING HIS SUMMER BREAK. FROM THE LOOKS OF THINGS I THINK HE WILL. IF YOU ARE 9 OR 99 YOU WILL ENJOY THESE BOOKS. READ THEM, YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED.
Rating: Summary: Harry Potter books are the best books in the world. Review: I have read all three books so far and they are the best. My favorite so far is the Prisinor of Azkaban because the ending is totally unexpected and out of this world. I have lent all the books to my friends and they all agree that the set rocks. I would recomend these books to everyone even adults would find these books enjoyable. They're awesome!!!!!!
Rating: Summary: Good, but not great...yet (warning: spoilers in review) Review: I have read all three books to date. I have just finished the Prisoner of Azkaban. I have enjoyed them but felt that they do not compare to those fantasy stories written by Tolkien or Lewis. These books seem to have a few problems One problem with these books is that they don't have that enchanting feeling that one feels after having read, say, "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe." They don't seem to convey the redemptive message that Lewis' "Chronicles of Narnia" conveys, and they lack the epic feel of Tolkien's "Hobbit" or "Lord of the Rings" Trilogy. When I finish a "Potter" book I feel "good," but I when I finish one of the "Chronicles" I feel "better." These books are becoming predictable. In each of the books, all one has to do to figure out who the villain is is to lay out all the characters in the book and then choose the least likely suspect. In Book One all signs point to Snapes being the villain, but it turns out that it is the insignificant Dark Arts teacher. Book Two points to Draco Malfoy, but in the end it turns out to be some insignificant character in a diary. Book Three perhaps is worst of all concerning this. All signs point to Sirius Black, but it turns out to be an insignificant, decrepit, old MOUSE. These books have been made predictable with their unpredictable, "Oh Henry!"-style endings. These books also overuse the "talking killer" premise. The entire series could be brought to a denouement if only the villain would shut up and finish Henry Potter off. It smacks of a Hardy Boys mystery, with Frank and Joe keeping the bad guys talking until help can arrive. These books aren't entirely original either. If any have read the excellent "Earthsea" stories by Ursula K. LeGuin they will immediately recognize the similarities between the wizard school at Roke and Hogwarts. One can also see that Gandalf of "Rings" fame inspired Albus Dumbledore. The series is even supposed to span seven books, the same number of books in Lewis' "Chronicles." The over-the-top feel of the series is reminiscent of the works of Roald Dahl. I am not saying that these books are a rip-off of other works, but I feel that I have seen some of this stuff somewhere before. Despite the few shortcomings of these books, they don't fail simply because they aren't as good as Lewis or Tolkien. Those are some pretty lofty standards. The greatest tribute I can give this series is that after I read each book, I look forward to the next. I have also noticed that as the series progresses, the books seem to get better and better. "Prisoner of Azkaban" shows the maturation of Ms. Rowling as an author (save the typical "Oh Henry" ending). I have great hopes for the future books.
Rating: Summary: Worth more than you think, teaches values and ethics. Review: I have read all three Harry books, and as an adult Iam thrilled that these books exist. In an era of TV and Video games I hope people alot younger than me will read these adventures. In this 3rd part of Harry's Adventures, attention must be paid to each character's reputation. Readers might ask themselves " Is this fact or gossip? ". Harry's friends, Hermione and Ron, are evolving in this story. And the legend of Harry's past is studied. And the Firebolt is great! I hope that the author will not let the popular media and marketers ruin this series with any action figures and trading cards, and animation of the characters. Her words build all the images we need to enjoy this fable.
Rating: Summary: A thrilling book that keeps you on the edge of your seat Review: I have read all three Harry Potter books and so far each one was a little better than the last, Rollings really knows how to write a good book. I can't wait for the fourth to come out. I have reccomended this book to teachers classmates and friends.
Rating: Summary: WOW,WOW,WOW,WOW Review: I have read all three of the books and am waiting not very patiently for the fourth. I have read all three books at least twice and a keep coming back for more. When I first got the third one on valentines day it was so gripping I read 400 pages that day and the rest the next. Allthough I don't think it's as good as the 1st two it still very good I highly recommend it. J.K. Rowling is a great author Age 11 Rover Elementery school
