As books for teens/young adults go, I wouldn't say this is the best series, but if you're a fan of the movies, I'd absolutely recommend reading the books

4.5
1. It's not as long as it looks. Once I picked up this book it didn't take all that long to finish. Reading it on my Kindle definitely helped with that - I could pick it up whenever I had some spare time.
2. Teenager problems. The fact that Harry is fifteen in this book is extremely hard to miss.
3. The Marauders.
4. A bit of political intrigue, as a treat. I love the small glimpses of the Ministry of Magic that are scattered throughout the book. One of my favorite things about the HP series is how rich the world feels and how easy it is to be sucked into it.
Overall, I had a great time reading the last 50% of this book. It gets off to a slow start but, in the end, it feels like it was a worthwhile read. I'm excited to continue the series!
