Rating: Summary: Harry Potter is one of the best books I have ever read! Review: I have read the first two Harry potter books in the series and loved them. It only took me a week to read both books! The books are filled with adventure and are so exciting you just can't put them down. I am looking forward to read the third Harry Potter book
Rating: Summary: Wonder of Wonders Review: I have read these now a few times over. Its a great story, filled with magic, and mystery. I want to go to Hogwarts, and yes I am a grown up (28yrs). This is a fully developed rich with detail fantasy world, that I encourage you to visit. Yes, you will be up all night reading it, yes you will call off sick from work. Yes, its worth it.
Rating: Summary: Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban Review: I have read this book few days ago, and I have to say: it is fantastic. I couldn't stop reading. Though it is just for children but I have red it and I like it very much. It is full of adventure, friendship and beautiful thoughts. This is sure one of my favorite books and great present for everyone.

Rating: Summary: Best so far Review: I have to admit that I'm not a big Harry Potter fan. I AM a compulsive reader, however, so I keep reading these books even tho I was deeply un-impressed with the second one. This one, however, is the best of the lot! I haven't read book 4 yet, BTW. Without giving anything away, if you've really understood the first 2 books, you kind of know what is going to happen in this one. It's just a matter of waiting to find out HOW it happens. I was semi-impressed at the lengths they had to go thru to make it all fit together. Simple stories bore me, and this plot was anything but simple. Some of the same complaints are still there, however. This series is obviously targeted at a market 20 or so years younger than me, it'll never stand up with some of the "classics" of fantasy, but it's still occasionally fun. I still recommend reading them for yourself. Some people may not like this, some people will be surprised to discover that they enjoy these novels!
Rating: Summary: I love this book! Review: I have to admit, I kind of looked down on Harry Potter when I first saw the books in a bookstore. I thought it was just another over-hyped merchandising thing for kids (along the lines of Pokemon and other stuff that I've seen in my work in a retail store). I was very suprised and pleased to be wrong. It's wonderful to watch Harry, Ron, Hermoine, Hagrid, et al to grow up and discover things about themselves and each other. Three cheers to J.K. Rowling for not dumbing down the books or sanitizing them. Life is messy. There are wonderful lessons about looking inside yourself to find strength and working together as a team. The lessons in this book are invaluable and couched in very entertaining storylines. Most of my co-workers (all over the age of 23 in most cases) have read the Harry Potter books, and we love them and can't wait for Book 4! As for Jim Dale, he's a superb storyteller. Each character has it's own distinctive voice. I even catch things I had missed in the initial readings of the books.
Rating: Summary: WONDERFUL BOOK Review: I have to say that I was compleatly blown away with this book, it is even better than the last two, which I thought to be impossible to top. EVERYONE should read it.
Rating: Summary: Harry Potter; the prisoner from Azkaban Review: I have to say, I'm not a heavy reader and Harry Potter books look like kids books, but when I started reading the first book, I couldn't stop! I love Harry Potter! I have all three books, and will definately be getting the fourth!
Rating: Summary: Excellent Read Review: I haven't enjoyed a book this much since "The Worst Witch" by Jill Murphy, which I saw on the HBO series. Recommended for adults and children alike!
