This morning as I had six pages left to read, I groaned when my husband called me away from reading “for a few minutes.” He laughed and said “It isn’t like you don’t know how it is going to end!” Ok…truth. But still…six pages left!
Whenever I tell folks that Goblet of Fire is my favorite book in the series because that’s when we first meet Mad-Eye Moody, the sticklers then say “Well, technically
I’m thoroughly enjoying my return to Hogwarts. I think I found a nice mix this time of rereading these eternal favorites by sprinkling in new reads in between the rereads.
Also, as I said in my other reviews of my recent rereads, I do not agree with or support the author’s views on gender. The stories are extremely important to my own mental well-being and I made the decision to separate the author from the art. However you opted to handle the art & the artist, I respect your choice. And, as I said before: we all need to remember to lead with love. She is a living example of how not to behave.

It matters not what someone is born, but what they grow to be.
Differences of habit and language are nothing at all if our aims are identical and our hearts are open.

“We are only as strong as we are united, as weak as we are divided.”
It took a while to get there but once I did, I flew through this so fast. That alone warrants a 5 star rating, because this book is my favorite one. I think I'll bump up Prisoner of Askaban up to a 5 stars as well (previously a 4.75), because I genuinely can't decide which one I like more. This book had it all: a tournament, plot twists, shipping drama, and therefore, it marks the turning point in this series. IT'S SO GOOD OH MY GOODNESS!!
Current Rankings:
- Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
- Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Askaban
- Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
- Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone
