Rating: Summary: Excellent pagan indoctrination Review: My 9yo son is now fully prepared for life in our coven...I hope nobody took that seriously. A bit formulaic (hence only 4 stars) but otherwise fabulous. I don't think that this book was 'darker' than, say, Azkaban... <'Chamber of Secrets' and 'Prisoner of Azkaban' spoilers ahead> I mean, Harry almost gets his soul sucked out by a dementor in that book! Here he just almost gets killed. <end spoiler> I agree with most of the other superlatives tossed about here, and I would like to add a thought directed at the people who think this book is evil: while childrens' thoughts are influenced by what they read and by what they see, the primary influence is how _you_ act. You should only fear this book if you fear the example you are setting for your own children. Don't try to dictate what my children can read--that's my wife's and my job.
Rating: Summary: The Magic Of Harry Potter Review: My Aunt and Uncle purchased me this book only a year ago. As soon as I picked the book up I was surprised at not only how good it was, but also how I couldn't put it down. Even days afterI finished it I couldn't stop thinking about how he had managed to defeat the greastest wizard of all time again. I have read this book over 20 times, and I still love to read it. If you are a person who wants to believe in a little bit of magic and loves to read.....READ IT!
Rating: Summary: THE BEST BOOK IN BOOK HISTORY! ! ! ! ! ! ! Review: My aunt gave me this book and I simpiy could not put it down.IT WAS SOOOOOO GOOD! I WANTED TO SHOW EVERYONE!IT WAS THE BEST BOOK IN THE WORLD!!!!!!
Rating: Summary: HARYY ROCKS Review: My book is called Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets by JK Rowling. Ok so the inside scoop on Harry Potter is his parents were killed by you-know-who. He's now living with mugles ( non- magic folk). They treat him like nothing, like he's just an ordinary boy. But really he's the boy who lived. That's what's up. Well he goes back to school at Hogwarts and there is a monster in the chamber of secrets. Well if you know Harry like I do he wants to find out what monster is hidden in the chamber of secrets. He goes to Aragog, the spider, and after that he finds a clue between Moaning Murtle, and the girl who was killed almost 50 years ago. The girl who was killed was killed in the bathroom. Well that's all I have to say for now. READ IT AND FIND OUT WHO THE KILLER IS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rating: Summary: A series? GREAT!!!!!!! Review: My brother and I, loved Harry Potter and the Sorrcer's Stone. Also most of my grade loves the book. At lunch, one day, at school. Most of the students were very excited about the new books that are coming out. Personaly I couldn't get enough of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, and had been wishing for another book continuing it. I can't wait for the next book, I know it's going to be great!!!!!
Rating: Summary: Potter Magic Review: My children and I read these wondeful books together. It makes for great family time with one to two chapters read aloud each night. They would rather hear this than watch T.V. Plus my one son that was having trouble reading, now reads well thanks to reading Harry Potter on his own over and over... Buy them all you will not regret it! Thanks J.K. Rawling for creating some real magic.
Rating: Summary: NOTICE: BEST BOOK EVER Review: My compliments to R.K. Rowling, author of the series of books on Harry Potter. These books are extraordinary, and as a young writer and a reader, I give it two thumbs up. Such wonderful creativity was put into this book, as well as humor, and mystery, all the ingredients of a GREAT book. R.K. Rowling, you sure have a good imagination, and a way with words...keep up the good work.... can not wait to get your newest book. Sincerely, A beloved reader of Harry Potter P.S. Wish you could write them a bit faster :)
Rating: Summary: Great fun for all Review: My dad first bought the first book to give to a kid he tutors as a present, and told me to look up the reviews online to see how people liked it. I looked at them and thought that one person had written them all. I've never seen so many people who all like the same book. My mom then got the book out of the library (after a VERY long wait) for my little brother, but I grabbed it first. I couldn't wait for the next one! Rowling did not dissapoint. The book is well written and fun to read. Most young adult books are dead depressing, and reading the Harry Potter books is a relief. I've read a lot of Adult fantasy, and I find myself almost liking Harry Potter more. Rowling combines the right amount of fun with just enough seriousness. A great book for all ages. Like C. S. Lewis's Narnian books, you can come back at any age and get something more out of them. Other good books for kids are the Chronicles of Narnia by C. S. Lewis and anything by Roald Dahl.
Rating: Summary: It is already one of my favorite books,though I am only 12!! Review: My dad gave it to me for Holiday,I read it in two days, then I had my dad read it, who afterward gave it to my mom, who inspite her hectic teaching job, read it within a week. In about March, my mom picked up my friend from her school out of town, as I rode my bike home from the local Junior High. Supposedly she loaned it to my friend, who was halfway through by the time we were finished with dinner that night. I haven't seen it since, because she took it home to finish, and gave it to her dad to read. It is such a great book, who knows who's brain Harry, Hermoine, Ron, and the rest of them at Hogwarts are going through!
Rating: Summary: It's fantastic! Review: My dad got this book for me. He said that it would be good. I loved to read this story, and I think that anybody who reads this story will fall in love with Harry Potter and his mischievious friends. Behind every human being, there is a Harry Potter.
