Highlights of the book:

1.Maze sequence which was the third task is much more exciting than portrayed in films with sphinx, skrewts and spider showing up.

2.Also Dobby was back at Hogwarts as a house elf. The book gives vivid description of every day life at school which was missing in movies.

3.Quidditch worldcup events was fun to read akin to football world cup matches with banter and feuds among players and crowd.

4.Also the level of corruption at Ministry of Magic somewhat resembles present day politics with people at high places showing lack of moral fiber and integrity.

5. Snape is such a bully. He constantly makes life hell for potter added with insults. Mocks hermonine "insufferable know it all" and tears apart Neville with constant quips on his intelligence.

The first time I read this book I was around 14/15 and it absolutely freaked me out, it didn’t help that I used to have a shadow of what looked like a dragon at my bedroom window, this was in fact just the drainpipe, but of course my over active imagination made it a dragon
