"Bow to death, Harry..."

------------------------------------------------

One thing I have learned rereading this series.... I am seriously enjoying it, but I am definitely perceiving things differently as an adult than when I read these books as a child, teen, and young adult.

While I have always thought this was a 5 star book/series, Goblet of Fire has always been one of my least favorite books of the series. However, while I do not think it has moved too far up the list, I did enjoy it WAY more this time than any other read in the past!

Harry again had trials and tibulations to face during his fourth year at Hogwarts, the year of the Triwizard Tournament. Though this time, the stakes were higher and things began to progress in my opinion to darker, more intense, obstacles than he faced in the past. The twists and turns, the confrontation, the reveal at the end, and the details we learned about key members of the magical world were 🤯 to say the least.

My only wish about this book is that it would be a little bit shorter. I feel at times it is a little slow. However, I do love the in depth look we get into his fourth year at Hogwarts.

P.S. non book related, but I truly believe this is where the movies really begin to leave things out. So much was different than the book or left out completely. Some of that was necessary and some of it was not.

Goblet of Fire was the longest book I’ve ever read and it was worth it. A lot of stuff happened and most of them broke me, especially the passing of Cedric Diggory. RIP, my guy. Reading this book made me realize that I can’t just trust what my eyes see, I have to think well and use my gut, especially when things go crazy. This book may be fiction, but it sure taught me life lessons about friends, families, colleagues, and the other side. I adore Harry, Hermoine, and Ron. They are brave kids, especially Harry. I also learned about not judging other people so easily just by how they look like what people around Hagrid, Snape, and Moody did. This is my first time reading this book and I enjoyed it. Oh, my heart broke for Dobby, Winky, and all the unpaid house elves like what Hermoine was fighting for with S. P. E. W., it made me sad that humans thought that house elves were below them. Good thing, Doby stood up for his rights. This was highly entertaining! I love how it was written. Plus Jim Dale did an excellent job narrating the audiobook companion. No wonder this series was now considered one of the classics. Well-deserved! This might only look like magic and wizards, but this was also about the people. Thank you, Ms. Rowling, 💕
