Summary: The Best Series Going, Bar None
Review: I must admit I was a bit skeptical about all the hype over the Harry Potter books. How could any book live up to all those superlatives? But by the time I'd finished the first chapter of Book 1, I was a believer. These books truly have something for everyone: magic, fantasy, wonderful characters who never turn into stereotypes, and best of all a young hero who continually risks his own life to save his friends. Rowling's superb writing and vivid imagination make us care about Harry Potter. Far from being a corrupting influence, I find the books uplifting and highly moral. Good (i.e. Harry) always triumphs over evil, although not without a fight. If the books are sometimes dark, well, so is real life. In my opinion we could all do a lot worse than to emulate Harry Potter's many fine qualities.

Summary: When in doubt....READ THE HARRY POTTER BOOKS!
Review: I must admit, at first the books sounded stupid. I couldn't figure out why people were getting hooked on them. Then one of my friends got me to read the Sourcerer's Stone, and I was hooked! I read that one, then the third one because I couldn't get a hold of the second one, and then the second one. My brother is hooked, and I got my dad hooked. When we got the Chamber of Secrets, my brother, my dad and I fought over who would read it. When someone would put it down one of us would take it and read until the person who was reading it would find it and take it back. These books are just amazing. Perfect book report books. If you are bored, just read the Harry Potter books. And honestly, these people who think they are just for little kids have no inner child. JKR is by far one of the best author that has written a book I have read. As an advid reader, I have read many books. Harry Potter books are for children, teens, and adults. The perfect gift for anyone. With a combination of fantesy, fun, comedy, and spooky stuff, these books have the power to make you want to read them again and again. You go JKR! Keep writing the wonderful books! I love them!

Summary: Just Amazing!!!!!!!!!!
Review: I must say it: I'm going to start the fourth book of the series, and I loved the first and the second one, but this one is just the best!!!! You could never suspect what's going to happen next page... It's just Amazing... If you hadn't lost your imagination, it is a must for you... And if you had lost it... Well: it's your chance to regain it...
Just read it and dream...........As good as Tolkien and Goodkind and Weis & Hickman, surely less complex, but you couldn't lack to love it...
And buy the audio unabridged edition, performed by Jim Dale, it's really a must!!!!!!!!!!You'll love his way of reading, he's such a good performer..."Try it".......

Summary: Definitely NOT a Bad influence
Review: I must say that as a devout Christian I find sensoring this book ridiculous. Surely others of you must realize that there is more violence in the book of Genisis alone than in the three HP books combined! Please Read this book! Let your children read it! Heck, encourage people on the street to read it! :)

Summary: The best Harry Potter book so far!
Review: I must say that Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban is my favorite of the first five Harry Potter books. Unlike the others, there aren't any Lord Voldemort battles, which gives it something different. I also greatly enjoyed the addition of Sirius Black and Remus Lupin. This book is very entertaining and will keep you absorbed until you finish the book!

Summary: Ah, the best by far
Review: I must say that Prisoner of Azkaban is my favorite of the H.P. books. It's just great! You've got Sirius Black running around, Dementors sucking up happiness, and Lupin. The main reason why this is my favorite book has to be because of Lupin. He's just the greatest teacher ever! I don't exactly know what is so appealing about Lupin, but everyone loves him. Maybe it's because he's the only teacher Harry likes (except Dumbledore, and perhaps McGonagall) and Lupin is the first decent Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher we've seen yet.
Prisoner of Azkaban is distinctly different from the other HP books. I can't say much more without giving it away, but it's somewhat intruging how different it is.

Summary: A GREAT BOOK!
Review: I must say, this Harry Potter book is my favorite of the Harry Potter books. As far as I am concerned, this book is fairly well written book. Oh, and I'm 18, and a Christian. Just thought I would clear that up for everyone out there who thinks that this book is for children only, as well as the people out there who think that it is purely evil. (Christians, mostly.)
Now for the review. The third book in the Harry Potter series, it starts out with Harry running from the Dursleys after doing something mean to his aunt, and going to Diagon Alley a little early as a result. The school year starts out without a hitch, although Dementors are on the lose, as well as Sirius Black, who was "convicted of killing 13 people with a single curse." The book has a great ending. I'll leave that to you. By far the best book in the series, I couldn't wait until it came out in paperback. About the only reason I started reading the series was because of some people at church who claimed that it was a bad series--without having ever read a single page of any of the books. My curiosity grew, until I had to find out if the books were really all that bad myself. They are not. While they promote something that does not agree with my beliefs, they also promote values that are not present in most of the mainstream media. Harry could have killed Sirius, the man who suposedly killed his parents, at the end of the book. Instead he did not. He could torment Malfoy right back but does not. He does not like being famous at all. I could go on about the good side to this book. If you read this, and actually read it, you would see what I mean.

Summary: The Best So Far
Review: I need to preface this by saying I've not yet read Goblet of Fire. That aside, Prisoner of Azkaban was by far the best of the first three books. In my opinion the first two were pleasant little books but Chamber of Secrets was nearly a carbon-copy of the Philosopher's Stone and that took a little bit of the bloom off the rose. However, with the third entry in the series, Ms. Rowling tells a new story (not the same old 'oh-look-Voldemort-is-back type stuff) and really develops the characters for the first time. Harry, forced to deal with the reasons for his state in life, reacts as I imagine a real 13 year old would--angry and confused. Hermione is fleshed out and made to be a little deeper than the know-it-all she's been the whole series. Snape is a delicious villian and steals all the scenes he's in toward the end of the book.All in all, the best to date. I can't wait to read the next one.

Summary: As fantastic as the others.
Review: I never get tired of Harry Potter's adventures, and neither will you if you get pulled into this magical world of mystery and mayhem. It is great for young and old alike and worth every penny. I would personally buy a hardcover copy because it is a book you will want to keep around for a long time.
