I am currently reading the entire series for the first time and this is the first book in the series so far that I was invested in for the whole read. I was genuinely shocked when

Mad-Eye Moody was supposedly the undercover Death Eater

and I was even more shocked when

it wasn’t him, or Ludo Bagman, like I thought it was

The stakes are much higher than the previous three books and the themes are getting darker.

Goblet of Fire was the longest book I’ve ever read and it was worth it. A lot of stuff happened and most of them broke me, especially the passing of Cedric Diggory. RIP, my guy. Reading this book made me realize that I can’t just trust what my eyes see, I have to think well and use my gut, especially when things go crazy. This book may be fiction, but it sure taught me life lessons about friends, families, colleagues, and the other side. I adore Harry, Hermoine, and Ron. They are brave kids, especially Harry. I also learned about not judging other people so easily just by how they look like what people around Hagrid, Snape, and Moody did. This is my first time reading this book and I enjoyed it. Oh, my heart broke for Dobby, Winky, and all the unpaid house elves like what Hermoine was fighting for with S. P. E. W., it made me sad that humans thought that house elves were below them. Good thing, Doby stood up for his rights. This was highly entertaining! I love how it was written. Plus Jim Dale did an excellent job narrating the audiobook companion. No wonder this series was now considered one of the classics. Well-deserved! This might only look like magic and wizards, but this was also about the people. Thank you, Ms. Rowling, 💕
