This is definitely the most revealing and enigmatic of the three series. I think the way J.K.Rowling spins the tale around a distinct storyline creates a book everyone can enjoy.


Sarah Colligan
This is the best book out of the Harry Potter Series! The book is unbelievable! Sometimes I think that I am Harry in the story and it feels so realistic! So, whoever is reading this grab a Harry Potter book and start READING!


Lucy Bradley
My name is Lucy Bradley.I am a HUGE fan of the Harry Potter books. I have a brother (Chris) who also likes the books. I have all the Harry Potter books. I think they are BRILL!! My favorite book is Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. My favorite part is where Gryffindor win the Quidditch Cup.

Harry Potter. The Greatest Book Series Of all Time! When I first read the first book, I was Amazed by its creativity, humor, and magic.
When I say magic, I don't mean the kids casting spells, I mean, the book is Magical, the storyline is wonderful!
But, Out of all of the three books, The prisoner of Azkaban was the BEST. Here is my rating:
Sorcerer's Stone: Excellent!
Chamber of Secrets: Very good
Prisoner of Azkaban: Best Book On the Planet (Well so far, Harry potter #4 will be great)

hi! I like Harry potter books too. but I like all fantasy books. I think everyone should read the Harry potter books even if they don't like Harry potter books. but I have a few suggestions if you like Harry potter books and have read them all and want to read more good fantasy book a little similar to you should read books by Piers Anthony and frank Baum he wrote wizard of oz but wrote many other great books) I hope you would give these books a chance as you have with Harry potter books and piers Anthony books should only be read to kid about12 and up. but oz books can be read to any

This is the best book that I have ever read! But, this is nothing compared with "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire". The best things about this book are the fact that Harry finally finds someone that he can relate to in some way, (read to the very end to find out), and that he wins quidditch!! All of my friends and I love it! Ten out of ten!!!!!!!


Susan
Harry potter books are the best I'm 17 and I'm currently reading all four for the third time. you get taken in by the magic and the twist's at the end of the books. even my mum (42) and my dad (54) are reading them. I hope Rowling makes more of the book's she's famous for, LONG LIVE HARRY POTTER..!


Isabelle Joussemet
If I could say one thing to every one in the world, it would be to go and buy the Harry Potter books. This book has had an incredible effect on me and the way the author tells the story, you feel as though you are right there watching it all happen. Thank you so much J.K.Rowling for creating this sensational book!!!
