Changing my review in light of all the information I've been made aware of about the author. We don't support transphobia.

This one is also great! Really enjoying the listening experience. There’s lots of fun components though the basilisk fight is a little anticlimactic. That’s one scene the movie certainly does better, with Harry hiding in the pipes from the blind snake. But overall I liked it a lot

It‘s been many many years since I read the Harry Potter books. Rereading them all in 2024. And will read it from the illustrated versions (at least up until the 5th book, bc the 6th and 7th do not have an illustrated version yet)

A few thoughts from this one:
- You can definitely tell that this book was written for younger readers, because I'm not used to other books repeating things that were mentioned in the first book in the sequel. That doesn't bother me, but it's interesting to see.

- There were definitely a few scenes that I had completely forgotten were in the book. I particularly enjoyed the Valentine's Day scenes, which made me laugh.

- I really enjoy reading it from th illustrated version. It’s sich a beautiful book.
