Wow!! Yet another great installment of Harry Potter! Harry is now in his third year at Hogwarts and faces new adventures as well as new dangers. Ms. Rowling does a wonderful job of taking us through another year in Harry's life. I loved this book as much as the first two. I think it's beautifully written, and there ( Read more... )

I really liked how the book was written - in little sections rather than actual chapters. It's a light read and pretty enjoyable.
I can see how people might not like this book; some sections are completely off topic and don't really have anything to do with the story. I also found it frustrating to read about ( Read more... )

Original review June 6, 2003:

I finally decided to read the 1st Harry Potter book because of all of the hype of the 5th book being released. I had heard this book was great, but I wasn't too excited about reading it because i'm not into science fiction involving wizards and magic and such. I was pleasantly surprised to find that it was a fun, light- ( Read more... )
