I’ve only ever watched the films, so I’m really happy to say I enjoyed this first book just as much!! I’m also very happy to say that the first film stayed really close to the book! 😆

This was such a great read!! I felt really engaged with the story, I fell in love with the characters and I thoroughly enjoyed the writing style. Also, the distinct Britishness of it all was very fun 🤩 

I can’t think of another book I’ve read that is able of engaging readers from such a wide age-range, either.

I love Harry Potter!! It’s such an amazing, fantastical world that I love to watch and read about!!! I really can’t wait to read the second book!!!

I am super late to the Harry Potter train, but I am so glad that I am now on it. This book was everything, and I'm excited that I have 7 more books to read and that I can continue to follow Harry and everyone else at Hogwarts and in the Muggle world.

Unfortunately the author fucking sucks as a human being, but the pictures bang. Comforting story to come back to from time to time. As a start of a series, actually sets a good amount up to be addressed later.
