Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone by J.K. Rowling

4.0

---

A fully fleshed-out universe from the get-go. The beginnings of this series are probably the best, in hindsight--there was a lot of discovery and a lot of desperation to have as many of her ideas out on paper as possible, and even though sometimes classes can feel like filler, it really does serve to make the reader feel like they themselves are attending a magical school and are free from the mundane.
