“Death is but the next great adventure.” Words cannot express how happy I am to be rereading this series! First, I experienced it with the mind of a first-year, excited and new, and now, as an alumni, looking back fondly. I only adore these books more and more as time goes on! They truly do teach a lesson - there is an always an adventure just around the corner, and Hogwarts will always be there to welcome you home.

The pacing is really wonky, like it took them 100 pages to get to the main setting and like five pages to conclude the build up that lasted the whole story

It's been years since I read the books (or seen the movies). What fun to revisit the wizarding world of Harry Potter. Listening to the audiobook was a delight! On to the next...
