Rating: Summary: Not My Type Of Book Review: I don't really get why so many people get hooked on these kind of books. I'm not much of a book reader, but isn't this magic stuff kind of old? Well, your probably not going to care about what I think, because everyone else thinks this book is the best. A lot of people my age are going to read it and say "WOW!This book was great!" and buy a copy for a friend or keep it as a collecters, but more of "Harry Potter" books are going to come out on the market and soon enough I will probably change my opinion.
Rating: Summary: Imanginative. Review: I don't really know what all the fuss is about. I mean it is indeed and excellent book but I reckon all the kids just ran out and bought it because everyone else did. I, personally, was displeased with the book - it was too slow, unimangianable and uses up it's talent too quickly. I was displeased but all the same I loved it.Harry Potter is a "human" who has been taken away from the abusive Dursley family to be taken to a school called Hogwarts. Why? Because he is a wizard. But it's not that fun when you have a dark lord and a huge scar on your trail. If your looking for imaginative fun, a chilling and thrilling plot and a huge amount of violence and awesomeness - I totally recommend Harry Potter. Anyway, wasn't the title of the book actually HARRY POTTER AND THE PHILOSOPHER'S STONE?
Rating: Summary: This is a vivid and great book for the imagination. Review: I don't really know why I love these books so much, but after I read this 1st one I just wanted to read the other 2. This book has descriptions that make your head work. Immediately after you start the book you fall in love with Harry and hate Draco Malfoy. Maybe one of the reasons that I liked these books is the characters. They are strange, but real and believable. You almost can't have a neutral feeling about any of them. You either love them or hate them. If you haven't read any or all of these books you need to. And I hope that J.K. Rowling finishes #4 soon cause I need another book to read. :)
Rating: Summary: Too good to be just for kids Review: I don't recall a more entertaining listen or read than the Harry Potter books and books on tapes. I can hardly stand to get out of my car when I arrive at work or home. Jim Dale's audio performance is spectacular; how he has managed through three wonderful books to maintain the distinct voices and personalities of a host of characters of all ages, genders, and mythic species is amazing. His audio performances are so engaging I look forward to long flights and drives for an uninterrupted listen; the stories themselves so wonderfully engaging I bought, read, and thoroughly enjoyed the books after having listened to the books on tape. I've cautiously loaned my H Potter audios to several adult friends from whom I could be assured of their return. All well-educated professionals, all enthralled and anxious to borrow the next tape or edition, and who have subsequently purchased one or all. These are just too good to relegate to children only. Try one of these spectactular Harry Potter audiobooks for your next long flight or drive. You won't want to stop at your destination. Perhaps a great pacifier for the kids on a long drive as well. An excellent performance of a wonderful story - this praise holds for all three of the books and audios thusfar released.
Rating: Summary: One of the best. Review: I don't think it really lives up to all the hype, and that it was that funny, or that deep, but it was good, almost like a spell, probably because we identify with Harry in the first part of the book. We really cheer him on, and want him to win. There is a refreshing quality that makes people feel young and triumphant again. If you look for something deep, don't look here, but if you want something to make you really happy, pick this up. Excuse me, I have to go stand in line for the second book.
Rating: Summary: JUST LIKE FAIRY TALES OF OLD Review: I don't think that I have a reading age of 9-12, but I overlooked this fact and bought books 1 - 3 anyway. They were excellent. Couldn't put them down (I was desperate to know what happened next), I'm sure my husband never wants to see another one. Little does he know I'm off to buy the fourth one today. JK Rowling is like an Enid Blyton of the OO's and I'm hoping that there will be many more of Harry Potter's adventures and heroes like him, so that I can read them to my son, just as my mother read Enid Blyton to me. I think these books are an excellent start to giving our children the incentive to read!
Rating: Summary: I LOVED THIS BOOK SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH! Review: I don't want to give away the plot but you absolutely have to read this! It has a ton of unexpected tasks and actions. You can't put this book down once you've started. It's like a magnet to your eyes. Very fun,exciting,and action packed. You've got to read this! Happy Reading!
