Summary: Now what will I do?
Review: I am a 30-something year old man and I am not ashamed to I am a Potter junkie! A few months ago I thought the Potter frenzy was just the silliest thing and that the followers (over 16) were just GITs! Well now I am a GIT! I came into Potter-mania as a tutor for my nephew's reading circle. They read Azkaban (#3) and I went along. Three days after finishing I was buying the other three books and I just now put down The Goblet of Fire, by far he best of the four. (They only get better!) Rowling has allowed the reader to grow and change with Potter. The storyline has kept me fixed. Not eating or drinking or socializing with my aged peers, I feel like a kid again. The series has excited me beyond anything I have experienced since Anne Rice, and honestly, Rowling may replace Rice on my top shelf. Anyway, Goblet is intense and moves like the giant snakes Harry has encountered. Rowling's words wrap around you and hold you fixated until the very end. The problem now that I finished Goblet of Fire is...what will I do until the next release. I can't stand it! And when it is released, I will be the first GIT in line for all the TV news cameras to see. Orwell wrote it about Big Brother, and I will say it about Harry...I love Harry Potter. (BTW, the only thing I will give away is that GIT is a word I picked up from Ron, If you don't understand who Ron is, then read the series!)

Summary: 5 stars of course!
Review: Again a masterpiece of writing! I love all the Harry Potter books, although the second still has to be my favourite, the twists the turns the excitement,drama, sadness, hatred etc etc Soooo many emotions in one "childrens" book its amazing! I'm 16 and i can still be as enthusiastic about these books as my 11 year old brother! You won't regret reading any of these books, and if you do you are very strange indeed!

Summary: IT'S THE BEST BOOK I'VE EVER READ!
Review: I really loved the first three Harry Potter books, but they compare nothing to the fourth one which is in my opinion by far the best. J.K. Rowling will be coming out with three more Harry Potter books before the series ends. I am looking forward to them. I recommend this book to anyone of any age with an imagination.

Summary: YOU HAVE TO READ THIS BOOK , BEST BOOK IN UNIVERSE!
Review: 12 YEAR OLD READERThis is the best book in the whole entire world. The Hobbit use to be my favorite book, but then I read this one and this book is by far my most favorite book in the whole universe. I suggest everyone of every age read this book. It captured my mind and sometimes I would stay up 'till 2:00 in the morning reading it. Words by far are not good enough to describe the excellence of this book. So what if it's long? The longer the better! I wish Harry Potter was a never ending story because it is so excellent. I wish Harry Potter was real and everything in the story! I wish I was a wizard going to Hogwarts and be Harry's best friend.There was not one second I got bored of this book. I have all 4, and I have read them all. Each book got better as it went along. The second one was better than the first one, the third was better than the 2nd one, and the 4th one was better than the 3rd. I am very anxious for the fifth one to come out. Some people thought this book drags on, but I didn't think it did for one moment. Don't listen to the people who give this book low ratings, they obviously do not know what they were talking about. Someone said that kids just like the book because everyone else does, and they are not sure if they really like it. Well that is just a bunch of garbage because I like the book for everything that's in it, and I don't want J.K. Rowling to stop writing HP books. If you havn't read this book, it's an absolute must. I give this book infinaty points.This book is full of action, suspense, mystery, magic, and anything you could ever dream of! I would rather read every Harry Potter book than win 111111000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 dollars and not be able to read Harry Potter. If you do not like Harry Potter, keep it to yourself! Don't encourage other people to ban Harry, because if you do, you are spoiling almost every person's glory in the whole world. I strongly believe you should read all the Harry Potter books because they will make your day. It encourages kids to read, even if they hate to read. If your children watch to much tv, ground them from it and make them read Harry Potter, and all your problems will be solved, I promise. Need I say more?

Summary: He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named Strikes Back...
Review: The first thing I noticed when I first picked up this book was the sheer mass. Each book in this installment is gaining girth; at this rate, book 7 should exceed 1000 pages. I worried that Rowling might be afflicted with successful writer disease (greater editorial control leading to redundant, unreadable tomes e.g. Tom Clancy). My fears proved false. Each page told an exciting, deep story that kept me riveted throughout. And again, I offer adulation to any writer that can keep children turning hundreds of pages. My only concern upon completing my reading, was that Goblet of Fire might be a bit too dark for the youngest readers. This is the "Empire Strikes Back" installment of the series where our heroes are put through their greatest losses and most dire perils. Also, much like the 2nd installment of Star Wars, the conclusion is anything but, aluding to greater conflict to come. As before, I encourage parents to read with their children. Not only is this something you can share with them, its definitely an activity of greater benefit than mind-numbing television sessions. Finally, any adult who remembers being a child will enjoy what is turning out to be a seriously good work of storytelling. Rowling is not underrated; ask your children.

Summary: The Best Yet!
Review: I believe this Harry Potter book is the best yet, even though it has looks a bit gloomy for the future. It has the most wonderful and thought-out mystery, and I suggest it to any one who likes mysteries and magic! I can't wait for the next one.

Summary: This Book Is A Must Read!
Review: If you haven't read this book yet, you are in for a treat! Come into the magical world of witchcraft and wizardry and you'll be left wanting more. Maybe sending and letter with you owl to Harry? Why did this book get banned? A really pointless thing to do. If you think this book goes against Christian beliefs you better check your prospectives. Just because the people in these books practice magic, doesn't mean maybe the author is thinking that they are or are not Christian. This book teaches strong bonds, like, how, even in a competition, staying true to your beliefs and friends is a very good thing to do. This book was wonderful, a very compelling read. After I finished it I was left saying "Is that it?". I certainly hope J.K. Rowling writes more after Harry gets out of Hogwarts, about his career. Was anybody else dissapointed that there were no quidditch matches this year?

Summary: Why Must I Be A Muggle!
Review: Harry, Ron, Hermione, and all of the others have totally won me over! I own all four books, although I loaned the first 3 to my aunt and am currently trying my hardest to get them back so I may reread them! During the countless hours I spent over the Labor Day weekend reading the 4th book, (thanks, Grandpa! ), I found myself wishing for the millionth time that I was a witch at Hogwarts, flying high over the Quidditch field, shopping in Diagon Alley, or drinking a butterbeer in Hogsmeade. I tried to slow my reading--I wanted the book to go on and on. To the poor, poor people who beleve that this book is in any way, shape, or form un-Christian, (aHEM! They celebrate Christmas like I've only dreamed about!), evil, or satanic, all I can say is I'm sorry that you are missing out on some of the best books to ever hit the shelf. Do they REALLY expect us to go out and curse them just because of the books? Please. I can't WAIT for the movie! And I am begging J.K. Rowlings not to keep me in suspense any longer than she has to on the writing of the 5th book. Oh, how I wish I wasn't stuck being a Muggle...

Summary: Harry Potter #4 is the BEST Harry Potter book ever!
Review: Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire is the best book! It's really exciting and extremely good! I've read it 4 times! I started it the second I got it, and couldn't put it down until 2:00 in the morning! Mainly, what happens is Harry goes to the Quiddich World Cup, goes to school, and, well, you should find out yourself from there! I highly recommend it, but only read it after you've read the first 3, otherwise you won't understand it. This is probably the best book I've ever read, and even if you don't like fiction, I almost guarantee that you'll like this. Take my word for it; it's terrific!

Summary: Can't wait for the next book!
Review: The Harry Potter books get better every time! I'm a Christian, and a Harry Potter fan, and I see no problem with any of the books' content. (Though I wouldn't read them to a young kid) Sometimes I think J.K. Rowling is a witch herself and put an enchantment over the books, I'm addicted! I agree with the person who said that 'just because we read these books doesn't mean we're going to go out and hex our friends', I mean, come on! The 4th book was a little darker than the other 3, though, what with You-Know-Who and everything. The last few chapters had me shakin' in my boots! All I have to say is "Good job, Ms. Rowling, and hurry up and write the next book! I'll be the first to buy it!"
