I read this book by recomendation of a friend ( he is 28) who has read the series and who told me this is a book I have to read. Myself, thinking this was a childrens book was a bit hesitant, it was quite a stretch from the books I typically read. But since my friend has suggested several great books in the past, I gave in. I must say this was one of the most imaginative, entertaining, funny, mysteries I've read. This maybe a childrens book, but I'm on my way back to my youth through them. I can't express enough how much I am enjoying the Harry Potters series and I'm 25!

I usually hate books, but since i was forced to read this book in school I read it. After a while i really liked it. Even though I still hate books I enjoyed this one.
