Rating: Summary: Harry Casts His Spell Review: This enchanting book, fourth in the Harry Potter series written by J.K. Rowling, becomes more thrilling and spellbounding than the first three. Despite the astounding length (752 pages), readers young and old will surely read this book nonstop as they are bewitched by the thrill and creativity. It's a wild ride all through the book. I bought myself a copy (having read the first three numerous times) and couldn't stop reading until I read the last word of the book. You'll become hooked, too. Goblet of Fire is worth more then 5 stars.
Rating: Summary: A real page turner - the best Harry Potter book yet! Review: This is J.K. Rowling's best so far; I loved it so much I finished it in one sitting! (I received the book from Amazon.com on July 8, 2000.) Exciting things kept on happening, so I never wanted to put my bookmark in the book.Harry has to deal with many new problems and go on three unexpected adventures. All the new characters create new twists and turns that make this a memorable story. This is a must read for all Harry Potter fans! Buy this book; you will want to read it over and over again.
Rating: Summary: Eagerly awaited fourth book lives up to the hype Review: I had a flash of fear when I finally laid hands on this eagerly awaited book; what if I was disappointed? My fears turned out to be completely unfounded, as Harry's fourth year at Hogwarts was every bit as exciting and moving as the first three. Although the book is very long, it flows so smoothly I didn't even notice how long I'd been sitting there reading! The last hundred pages were so emotionally intensive I actually had to put the book down and take a few deep breaths before I could continue. I strongly urge parents to read this book with, or before their children read it, as it is very intense. I am eager to begin reading it to my 9 year old daughter, discussing this latest adventure in Harry's life will keep us busy for months to come, while we wait for book 5!
Rating: Summary: 14-year-old Harry Review: The 4th Harry Potter book is great. The difference between this book and the other Harry Potter books is that it started the story somewhere else instead of the Dursley's house. Unlike those in the other books, this time Harry was to spend a part of his 14-year-old summer with the Weasleys. But it turned out not as good as Harry hoped. In the book, he had come face to face with the Dark lord again. What's new, however, is that the Triwizard Tournament was added to Harry's school life. I think Harry in the forth book was much wiser. In the previous books, he just went right to the problems without thinking what might happen to him. But this time he thought it over before taking any actions. Knowing what his next task in the Tournament might be, he went looking for spells that would help him. We may say he was growing up and becoming mature. Like those in the others books, a lot of people still worry about Harry, especially the Weasleys. The one more thing good about reading this 734-page book,is that the stories are much clearer and more coherent. I just couldn't put it down while reading. It always gets to the best part at the end of a chapter, so that it makes you want to find out what happens next, and I did. It took me 6 hours to finish it.
Rating: Summary: This is the best one yet! Review: J.K. Rowling has done it again! The fourth book is the most enthralling book in the series. As Harry competed in the Triwizard Tournament against Cedric Diggory, Fleur Delacrou, and Viktor Krum, I got a feeling of excitement that had never before coursed through my veins. The climatic showdown in the end is truly the best part of the book. I believe that this is the best Harry Potter book ever.
Rating: Summary: Harry stikes again-but this time with tears Review: I vaguely thought that JK Rowling might be able to produce another Harry book of such fine calibre as "The Philosophers(Sorcerers) Stone", "The Chamber of Secrets", and "The Prisoner of Azkaban", but of course, I was wrong. JK Rowling hasn't produced the same quality book - this time she has surpassed herself. This was my reaction as I walked through my shopping center, with "The Goblet of Fire" in my hands, and my stunned reaction as the first chapter brought excitement and fear. It took me 5 and a 1/2 hours to finish book four (my mum warned me that I would get indigestion if I read it too fast), and every moment of it made me wish that I were closer to the end, not because I wanted it to be over, but because I wanted to see how Harry would cope with the new battles that JKR was setting out for him. To be quite honest, I cried for half an hour when I had finished it. It touched me so greatly, that I am not sure that I will be able to finish reading it to my little brother when we get there. So beware all you mums and dads; you'll need to have a good old fashioned cry with your kids when you've finished this one, and for the teenagers out there, you, like me, will want a hug from your mum or dad. Trust me: Harry will live forever in what has to be the best book yet.
Rating: Summary: Go Rowling! Review: I read all of the other Harry Potter books as well as this one. This one was longer, but better- you can't have too much of a good thing. Once I started it I just couldn't stop until I was finished. If the only reason you don't want to read it is the length, you should seriously reconsider it. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire is DEFINATELY one of the best books I've ever read. Some people think the beginning is kind of boring. It isn't really, but even so the book picks up after a while. It rally is one of the best.
Rating: Summary: The best book ever! Review: I think that these Harry Potter boooks bring a new light to reading. at first i thought the Harry Potter books were for little kkids but thrn i got the first three fr christmas and i couldent put them down. i used to hate reading now at scool i cant wait till i get to read my Harry Potter books. I also think that J.K Rowling shoudent just make 7 books but more to see what Harry and hhis friends do in life and see of he gets married to Cho Chang and if they have kids then have her write about Harrys kids going to Hogwarts
Rating: Summary: It's almost better than the other 3! Review: The book rules! I couldn't put it down once I started it! When I first saw it, I thought it would be too long, but every one of the 734 pages were wonderful! A must-read!
Rating: Summary: Another good one Review: J.K. Rowling creates another incredible good read for adults and children alike. The reader will not be disapointed.
