Rating: 5 stars
Summary: absolutely amazing. the impossible has been done.
Review: the rule is nearly always that the sequel(s) are bound to be worse than the originals. however, j.k. rowling has broken the rule. thank god! every harry potter book has been better than the last, and this is no exception. do NOT let the size daunt you! i bought the book at eight this morning, sat down to read, and didn't stop til i finished it at two this afternoon. apparently i had an entire conversation with my parents during this time (so they say) but i don't remember, i was too engrossed in the book.

the plot just gets deeper and deeper. you can't put the book down, because you want to, you need to know what happens next. the characters are also even more developed than in the first three books, and rowling does an exceptionally good job of conveying how they're all growing up. and, while it doesn't end with a cliff hanger (if it did, half the world would die in anticipation), rowling artfully spins the plot so as to make way for the three books than will eventually follow. absolutely amazing. i can't remember reading a book in years that has held me so spell bound. buy this book, you will NOT regret it.

Summary: Wow!...I love these books!
Review: The 5th Harry Potter book still captures the excitement and fun. But I thought the book was a bit longer than neccessary. The events also dragged a bit. But...Harry is still the best! This time Harry seems to have grown up a bit. The book was very exciting in some parts, and other parts were very funny. Hee Hee. Loads of new characters were put into this book and You-Know-Who makes a move...oops can't say anymore...Go Read The Book! IT IS REALLY GOOD. I love all the Harry books, although I still like the first one the best. I was really sad when I finished reading the book. *sniff sniff* I can't wait until the next book!

Summary: Wow
Review: After reading the third installment of the Harry Potter series (The Prisoner of Azkaban), I thought that this series couldn't get any better. I, however was very wrong. When I bought the book I sat down and read all 734 pages in one day. That day was a magic carpet ride of emotions. This book had it all, it was funny, very exciting, yet it was also frightening and sad. The book is filled to the brim with unexpected turns at unexpected times. "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire" is the best book in the Harry Potter series hands down.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Definitely worth the hype
Review: J.K. Rowling certainly doesn't disappoint with her new tale of Harry's adventures at Hogwarts. She creates amazing new magical creatures for Hagrid to care for, and keeps the reader guessing at every turn. Who is truly Voldemort's servant? Who will win at the end? Definitely a darker feeling than the other three books, but well worth the effort it takes to get through the story! I was astounded in many parts when different identities were revealed. Rowling gives lots of background information regarding the bygone days of Voldemort's reign of terror. Overall, a fascinating book that I intend to read again soon!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The best yet!
Review: This book is the best of the 4 so far. With its 700+ pages it doesn't look easy to read. I am a Harry Potter fan and I love all of the books. This book has a twist ending that you won't want to miss! And Amazon.com has a really good price! Order it today!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This is possibly the best book ever published!
Review: Words cannot describe how absorbing and mystifying this book is. I just finished it, after reading almost nonstop for the past 8 hours, and have found I can do nothing but marvel at the amazingness of this book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Harry Potter, book 4
Review: Rowling's fourth book in her series of Harry Potter promises to be as smashing a success as the first three. "Goblet of Fire," though much lengthier than its precedents at 734 pages, weaves a captivating plot with enough side-stories to maintain the intrigue and build suspense but not distract. Apart from the fact that her characters are magical, Rowling portrays the teenage Harry, Ron and Hermione as real and flawed 'people' that will appeal to their young readers. A surprising turn near the end of the novel promises an abrupt but pleasing change of direction for the next three Harry Potter books to come -- it is an enjoyable read and well worth the time of any age group!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A "Magical" Adventure!
Review: Couldn't put it down, cold barely turn the pages fast enough. Great story, but a bit dark. I don't want to give any plot points away, but all in all it's fantasmagorical!

Harry Potter was a great story to begin with, but now that we 've gotten to the turning point of the book series, I can't begin to say how much more in depth it's become!

To name a few great things about this book would be really hard, because it's wonderful! Anyway, it details Harry Potter's 4th year at Hogwart's Acadamy, a magical shool for all the future warlocks and witches of England. In it you get to see how Harry handles the pressures of school, and adolescence!

That's about enough of that! READ IT! You won't be disappointed!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: On Fire
Review: The latest Harry Potter book has been surrounded with a lot of hype, and meeting the expectations built up over the preceding weeks would be hard for any novel. But Rowling's fourth has done exactly that--the Goblet of Fire is simultaneously fast-paced, packed with the trademark sly humor, and sometimes excrutiatingly on the mark about the "usual pangs of adolescence". It is darker than other Potter books, filled with more implied responsibility--the storylines seem to be growing up with Harry. One small complaint--very small--is that toward the end, the majority of the writing is purely expository. However, the length of the book (roughly three times the size of the first book) is not a negative. It's more of a gift. After hours of reading the book, all you can do is smile.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Goblet of Greatness!
Review: This is the best book I've ever read in my life. J.K. Rowling is sure to score another bestseller in "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire". The details are amazing. I purchased this book at it's midnight release and read until morning! I don't want to give too much away all I can say is it's fabulous!
