This has been my first time reading this book since I was a young teenager. Now as a 24 year old I can see the flaws in this novel more clearly, as well as the inconsistencies that will become apparent in the next six books. But regardless it was fun to read and notice where my memories of what happened had been replaced by what happens in the movies instead. Definitely worth the reread.

This book contains many xenophobic and antisemitic tropes found throughout fiction generally - though it is very indirect (as is the nature of these tropes).mooneyreads's review against another edition
