This was a great lighthearted book, the characters are just great, the plot is awesome. This book I recommend to any age, Jk Rowing just did fabulous on the first book of the series. The wizarding world is just so welcoming and amazing, this book is just such a good opening to an amazing, and loved series.

I love Stephen Fry's narration! It brings a whole new level of cozy to the experience as well as immersion.
Even though I don't approve of the author, I can still find comfort in retreating to the world of Harry Potter and escape reality for a bit. HP has a special place in my heart, and the books are beautifully written.

I haven’t read these since the first time over 10 years ago in school! I forgot just how fast paced and adventurous the first is despite building the world of magic for us.

I read the Harry Potter series over a decade ago, and wasn't super impressed then, and am utterly offended by them now. JKR is an abhorrent transphobe, and her non-white characters are nothing but 1-dimensional, racist tropes.
