Average Rating: Rating: - Better than I Ever Imagined!!!!! Ok, I will admit that when the Harry Potter hype was at it's peak,I had no interest in reading what I thought was a ''children's book''. I am an english tutor in Austria, and every one of my pupils is a Harry Potter fan(even the parents!)After the film came out I decided that I wanted to read the book before I saw the film so......... WOW!! What a great book! For adults as well as older children. So much adventure,fun,suspense,friendship etc... I would have never thought in a million years that I would also fall in love with Harry! I still haven't seen the film(I preordered the dvd though!) but now I am anxiously awaiting it's arrival. As I read the first book, I found myself caught up in the adventures at Hogwarts and also identifying with the characters and their struggles. So, guess what? I then bought the other three books and never put them down. I can hardly wait to read the 5th(hurry up J.K.!) Miss Rowling is a gifted writer with a wonderful imagination! I hope she continues to write about Harry and his adventures. Buy the books!! You will NEVER be disappointed! Rating: - You'll be hooked from the first chapter! I was so grateful that I decided to start reading the Harry Potter series after there was already four books written! You finish one book and can't wait to start the next book. I've finished all four in a month, and would have finished sooner if it wasn't for things like life and work getting in the way. After reading the book and seeing the Sorcer's Stone in the movie, I now know why there was so much concern about creating the story in a visual format. J.K. Rowling does truly write in a way that sparks your imagination and literally 'paints' the scene and action in your mind. Her words are descriptive and engaging. Truly a page turner. The books are a very easy read. And very quickly you become involved in the lives of Harry Potter and his friends. Book One was great. And believe it or not, each book was better than the last. Each book has new lovable characters or engaging/humorous scenes that you'll want to go back and re-read. The action gets raised a notch in book four. You'll read it so fast to get through the story, and then will realize you'll need to re-read it to pay attention. It's not just for children. Rating: - get enchanted As the Harry Potter-hype started a few years ago, I only got to read the books a few weeks ago. Even after Harry Potter and J. K. Rowling started to appear in most conversations within my circle of friends, I still wasn't convinced to read about the adventures of this little wizard who gets all this media attention. During one of my frequent visits to my beloved book stores in town, I overheard a young girl discussing with her mother about which of the HP books they liked the best. The mother sounded like a even bigger fan than her 12-year old daughter. So on the way out, I picked up the British paperback version of "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone". I took the book with me on my daily train ride to work, and straight from the first chapter, I was hooked to the writing style and the unique atmosphere Ms. Rowling has created in her stories. I regretted that my train ride ended so fast every morning ever since. I finished the first book in 3 days, (which is no time record at all), and picked up the 3 sequels in the same week. I always loved reading, but have never encountered such a page-turner yet! The magic of Ms. Rowling is that she can keep a 9-year old and a 24-year old reading with interest. Haven't seen much writers who can enchant such a broad group of different ages and cultures in the same time. The comparison between the Harry Potter series and The Lord of the Rings seemed unavoidable. Tolkien's fantasy masterpiece is also a great reading experience, but to be honest, I enjoyed the Harry Potter books more because of its original reflections towards our own daily life, the humour, the detailed description of everything (from interior decorations at Hogwarts to the magical candy store in Hogsmead), the action and of course all the adorable and less adorable characters in the story. There is the perfect combination of the hero and his sidekicks. The magical threesome (Harry, Ron & Hermione) has concentrated courage, intellect, strong will, loyalty, humour and optimism. They face challenges from dark wizards, nasty professors and dangerous creatures that only exsist in the magical world. They mostly turn out to be the final winner, and the black-white characterisation was quiet obvious. But isn't that a part of the charm of good story telling meant for kids (and sometimes adults as well)? One advice, if you can, read the books in its original language. I've seen the Dutch and the Chinese translations, which contains several pretty remarkable mistakes. This is due to the fact that the translations must be done in a hurry in order to get the books on the shelves asap. Such a shame that quality must compensate in this case! So wake up the 9-year old inside you and take a ride on this magical roller-coaster. You'll get enchanted and longing for more...
