Rating: Summary: The best book ever! Review: This was one of the best books I have ever read. I couldn't put it down. The story line is very devoloped and the author goes into great detail to explain things. This was a very creative book and I think many people willl love it!
Rating: Summary: This story truely took me to Hogwarts school Review: This was one of the best fantasies I have ever read. The story of Harry Potter and his friends Hermione, and Ron has quickly spread among our group of friends. Some of us are waiting for the forth book (like me) while others are starting the first. I was a little hesitant when I started not knowing wheter I would like it or not. But as soon as I started it I was finshed and one to the second, then the third. It took me an average of four days to finsh the books, beside the size. To anyone who really isn't sure about fantasy books please go into this book open minded. Oh and to those witches and wizards out there if you meet Draco Malfoy please just slap him for me. Thank you
Rating: Summary: Creative and Outstanding! Review: This was one of the most phenominal books I have ever read. Harry Potter is a young boy who has recenlty learned that he is a wizard. Rowling accounts his amusing adventures. She writes clearly and uses such vivid detail. It is a book that children, teens and adults would find entertaining. An easy read and most definately a page turner!
Rating: Summary: Fun Review: This was really fun and had lots of surprises. It reminded me of some other books I really like. Like the books of E. Nesbit and also Charmed Life and Lives of Christopher Chant by Diana Wynne Jones, which are also about kids learning magic and dangerous magicians trying to stop them. Quidditch sounds like a great game.
Rating: Summary: Wonderfully woven story Review: This was simply an enchanting and bewitching book! I suppose I'll say my piece concerning my background with the series first: I am a pure non-conformist. I don't watch the TV more than an hour and a half a day (and only for news and Friends, then) and I don't listen to the radio. I generally abhor popular media. I'm definitely not trying to be a hobbit and seclude myself from the world, I just have different tastes than most other people. When I first heard of the Harry Potter series, it was only because of the hype surrounding book number 4, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. I was immediately disgusted and was turned off to the book. A few months later, I was at a friend's house, and she has books 1,2, and 4. I picked up the first one, read the first three paragraphs, and was still not impressed. This only furthered my disdain. Most of the people I know have read most of the books - and I gave them a rather hard time for it. Beginning a couple weeks ago, my fourth period teacher has been reading The Sorcerer/Philosopher's Stone to us, and I caught the occasional word here and there over the book I was reading that day. The thing was, the words I caught were interesting: Bernie Bott's Every-Flavor Beans, Albus Dumbledore, Voldemort, Quidditch. So I started paying more attention. By the eighth chapter, I was so taken by the book, I went out and bought it for myself! I have to say, it's an amazing read. Science fiction/fantasy books are not my usual par for course, but this is definitely an exception! The way J.K. Rowling weaves her storylines with her characters with her setting is incredible. So, if you're still reading this, my point is simple: For months and months on end, I really didn't want to have anything to do with this book. Snicker all you wish, but read the first two chapters. If you still don't like it after that, then read another! I promise, by chapter 10, there will have been at least one thing that will have caught your attention and/or imagination. Cheers to you, Ms. Rowling!
Rating: Summary: What a fun filled and creative book for all ages! Review: This was such a great book for all ages. I am 19 and I thought it was one of the best books I have ever read. I read it in one day. This is a book that you can't put down. After reading the book, I made my mother read it, and she loved it also. This would be a good book to read to your kids before they go to be.
Rating: Summary: The Firstof the Masterpieces of J.K. Rowling Review: This was such a great children's book. It is setting you up for the rest of the series. It is an introduction to Malfoy, Voldemort, the four houses, Hermione and Ron, quidditch, wizardry, and Hogwarts in general. This is definitely a great book. The writing style of the author is very descriptive. It opens up your imagination and a boarding school on a foggy morning will never be the same again. English writing will never be the same again. It is really a new and different type of novel and not only will children enjoy this book, but parents as well. One of the best of our time.
