This book is my least favorite. It is a great book, but others are better. This year we see Harry and his friends grow apart and we also see the return of he-who-must-not-be-named. This book is the most mystery-oriented and I do like that. My favorite part is when the champions are in the maze! 
 
The movie version of this book is the worst one. The director wanted to make this film super dark, but after seeing how 3 was dark, decided he couldn’t do that and changed his idea entirely. He refused to watch the first 3 films, and only skimmed the book. There are way too many plot details that were changed or cut that changed the way the story came across.

Favorite Quotes:
“it matters not what someone is born, but what they grow to be.” - Albus Dumbledore (book)  
“I love magic!” - Harry Potter (movie)

I absolutely love this series and in my opinion, this is the turning point where the book moves from a children’s or middle-school book to more YA by the end. I will say, I thought it dragged a little bit in the middle but everything came together beautifully in the end.
