Avelynn wants to give it six stars. "It's the best book we've read together yet. I like all the wizards and witches. My favourite characters are Harry and Hermione. I don't like Voldemort because he's the baddie and he's creepy"

I've always been a big fan of the films but had never read the books before!

I have recently started listening to the audiobooks as an adult and I am absolutely loving them!

They are so magical and nostalgic! They did well with the first film compared to the book as it was very similar, just the book had some extra bits which I really enjoyed!

Perfect magical fantasy series for children and adults!

I’ll be honest, I went into this book with the hopes of disliking it. The Harry Potter books are so hyped, and that’s one of the main reasons why I never read them. But Now!!! Now I’ve seen the light, and I completely understand why everyone loved it so much. I enjoyed every chapter, every page, and every word!! I can’t wait to start reading the second book. For a while throughout the book I strongly disliked Hermione, but the moment Ron and Harry become friends with her she is seen in a different light and so much more likable. I’m my opinion, that’s just good writing. I enjoyed this book so much! Also I’m finally ready to claim my hogwarts house. Slytherin

I loved this series once but the author has soured it for me.
