Five stars. Always. Read this book again for maybe the 15th time and it's always so amazing and nostalgic! Can't wait to re-read the rest

I had grown up with the movies and never brought myself to read the books. It has been the best decision i’ve made because I genuinely really enjoyed reading the book. It was an easy and fast read, got me hooked super fast.

oh, how i’ve missed this world. it felt like such a warm hug in these Trying Times 😭✊🙏 
not to mention though, think it says a lot about hogwarts security that a trio of 13 year olds could go thru the forbidden place lololololol but anyway it felt so good to be back 😕

I mean. It's Harry Potter.

No matter what, you really should read it at least once.

It is a strange work of fiction in that it is a very simplistic read (I read it in about 5 hours all up) so it appeals to children (probably around ages 8-9 and up), but it is also interesting and well written enough to capture the attention of adults.

I don't usually have much patience for childrens novels, or even YA novels aimed at younger teens as I find them all too juvenile and boring, everything being obvious and the plot being spoon fed to you. However this was a very interesting and captivating read and I am not too sure why I put it off for so long.

It is quite obvious why it has done so well and was turned into such a massive movie franchise.
