 “Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.”

OH MY GOODNESS THIS IS THE BEST BOOK YET!! IF OTHER BOOKS DON'T TOP THIS ONE THEN I'LL MAKE MY RATING 5 STARS BECAUSE I LOVE SIRIUS AND LUPIN AND ALL THE SHENANIGANS AND EVERYTHING WAS SO GOOD LIKE WHAT ??? This was one of my favorite movies and I'm glad that the book is the same as well.

Current Rankings:

1. Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Askaban
2. Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
3. Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone

Best one so far! Loved the cat, the turner, Serious and my beloved Remus off course! Loved to learn more about the marauders cause we really don't in the movies! Easily the best book so far, so engaging! 

Am I crazy though for enjoying the events more in the movie with how the show them going back in time by throwing rocks at the window, howling at remus and so on. I enjoyed that a lot in the movies but maybe it would have been a bit too obvious if they did it in the books idk.

“¿Piensas que los muertos a los que hemos querido nos abandonan del todo? ¿No crees que los recordamos especialmente en los mayores apuros? Tu padre vive en ti, Harry, y se manifiesta más claramente cuando lo necesitas.”

It’s crazy how different the book and movie are. The rift between the three when Hermione went to the teachers about the broom and the rat was frustrating but honestly was written well. That’s exactly how kids act. Lupin is one of my favorite characters however!

Im bias because this book is one of my top movies. If I didnt know what happens, I would be jaw dropped. I loved it, it definitely felt slow for me as I was reading but I would recommend this to anyone
