Summary: Was okay, but I liked the other three better
Review: I often reread the HP series and this is the book that always slows me down. I just hate the character of Lockhart and just glaze past the pages that he appears on. The rest of the book is solid and overall the story is enjoyable.

Summary: Wonderful at any age !
Review: I only have one comment to make about those who feel this bookis in some way objectionable for children to read.... TRY IT YOURSELF! I am a born again Christian and find nothing objectionable in this book .. it is fiction a fairy tale of the highest order ... LIGHTEN UP! No where in the BIBLE do I read... LET THEE NOT HAVE AN IMAGINATION or thee will go astray ... NO this is a book ment for fun SO ... LET there be FUN.... They talk about witchs and warlocks ok so what ... DO lions really talk ? would you put down C.S. LEWIS ? One of the greatest of the Christian fiction writers ... GIVE kids a break ... let them have a Harry potter book .. it will not stain their souls but amuse them and it will give them hope... THERE IS GOOD in the world that NO EVIL thing can KILL...

Summary: Too good for little Kids
Review: I only jest with my summary but as a 23 year old girl with no children its rather hard to explain why I'm still reading childrens books. Simply its a great story that lets you vanish for a while and allows you to belive in magic and wizards again.I have now read the third book in the series and can't wait for the next instalment, althought I did have to put the book down near the end as I needed time to compose myself, stop crying and chill out. All you adult out there grab these books of a child near you and learn to have fun again.

Summary: I was stuned.
Review: I orderd Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets from England and it blew my mind. Most books get dry after the first book but not this one I'm glad to say J.K. Rowling is still going strong. I loved everything about the book Dobby, the womping willow, the polyjuice potion, the mandrakes. I also liked how Ms. Rowling created Lockhart I love to hate him. I can't wait for the third book or the movies.

Summary: A great book. Enjoyable for both children and adults.
Review: I ordered Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets from www.amazon.co.uk and received it in two days. It was not very expensive, far less than the large hardback will be when it is (finally) available in the US in September.Chamber of Secrets was every bit as good as Sorcerer's Stone. I read it to my eight year old daughter. I think I was as interested in reading the next chapter as she was. At the end we cheated and read more than one chapter per night. It was a great book and I am already looking forward to Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban in July (already ordered from www.amazon.co.uk).

Summary: Not just for children
Review: I ordered Sorcerers Stone based on a review, not realizing the age range is 9-12. Reluctantly I began to read and became completely enthralled almost sheding a tear at the end. The sequel, Chamber of Secrets, purchased from Amazon.co.uk was just as good. To say these are childrens books is misleading, I cannot wait for the third in the series and I am 34.

Summary: A great read for everyone that still believes in Merlin.
Review: I ordered the first Harry Potter book for my grandchildren. I ordered the second one for myself and enjoyed every page. I suggest that every adult that still believes in fairy dust, magic wands and wonderful wizards, read about Harry Potter and return to that amazing world of wonder. The grandchildren loved them also.

Summary: Harry Potter and The Sorcerers stone
Review: I personaly think that Harry Potter and The Sorcerers Stone is the best book I have read. I would reccommend Harry Potter to kids at a young age. Harry Potter was is an excellent book to read.I like the way the book was desined and the characters were awsome.the one thing that I most definatly loved in that book was the words. The words were chosen so carfully. The book Harry Potter was so incredible that I made pictures in my head while I was reading the book.For the adults out there this book would be a great book to read for yourself or your child or children. Harry Potter is a very good fantacy book you would love it. The book was about a child who's parents were killed by an evil sorcerer. Harry Potter about 10 years later was a normal child that lived with his Aunt, Uncle and his couisin.Dursley (Harry Potter's couisin) was a spoiled kid that basicly ruled Harry Potter's life. Harry Potter didn't get attention from anyone. One day Harry gets a letter in the mail and Dursley took it away from Harry and gave it to his dad and said "Harry has a letter". But Harry's Uncle didn't believe him and said "who would be writting to you Harry". Then the Uncle fliped the card over and stood there saying nothing. When Uncle Vernon fliped thw letter over it said Hogwarts(the school of withcraft and wizardy). Then Uncle Vernon said "there are no post on sundays" and then a lot of letters start coming in from the fireplace. Then Uncle Vernon said they were moving far away.

Summary: great!
Review: I personly find that this is my favoritebook in the series. It is about Harry, his friends, enemies, and hisadventures. Before Harry goes to Hogwarts, a mysterious dwarf comes to warn him of bad things that will happen to him. Harry, determined to get away from the Dursleys, pays no heed but goes. Bad things do happen(as well as meeting a very annoying fraud professor)but heroic Harry and his faithful friends fend them off, until at the end Harry finds himself alone in a room with he who must not be named, a deathly monster, and an unconcsious girl, how can Harry possibly survive! Read the book. -the second in a sequel, you might want to read the first one first
Rating: 
Summary: Mediocre at best
Review: I picked this up expecting a work of fantasy on par with the tales of Dunsany, Tolkien, or Brooks. Needless to say, I was very disappointed. The characters were weak & the story uninteresting. Rather than the Harry Potter books, I'd recommend The Charwoman's Shadow by Lord Dunsany, The Hobbit by Tolkien, or the Sword of Shannara by Terry Brooks.
