Review: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows


Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by J.K. Rowling

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



Where to begin...

First of all...I spend the entire book crying! All of my favorite character (except 2) die!

It's a good book...wraps the story up nicely...but it could be longer...the final battle feels a bit rushed after 6 3/4 books of build-up! Maybe 30 more pages and this one would earn 5 stars!

I also wish the last chapter was longer...tell us more about the future, their children, relationships, etc! I know there are websites that have expanded on the final chapter and I can find almost anything out online...but I wish it was in the book!


Solid 4.5 stars...

Review: Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince


Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince by J.K. Rowling

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



I hate how this book ends!

I guess I understand why Dumbledore has to die...but I absolutely hate that he does!

This book is not my favorite of the series...it tends to drag a bit and Prof. Slughorn irritates me for some reason!

I do like the side stories though..always my favorite part of any H.P. book! Harry & Ginny together...so sweet! Ron & Lavender (seriously?)...Dobby fighting w/Kreacher, etc...BTB: Why does it seem all of the Weasley owe their live to Harry?

I like to think that the Malfoys truly get what is coming too them at the end of the next book...but in this one...all I really want to do is smack Draco!

Fleur shows her true colors at the end and proves even Mrs. Weasley wrong! LOVE!

Not looking forward to the first few chapters of book 7..they are some of the saddest of the series...but onward I soldier!

One more and my summer bucket/reading list is done :c)

That said...this one is a solid 4 stars :c)

Review: Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix


Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix by J.K. Rowling

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



**Please disregard my previous review of this book...Goodreads posted it before I was done...**

This is one of my least favorite Harry Potter books! I love the DA & all...but Umbridge makes me want to smack her!

That said...there are several important points in this book that tie into the rest of the series.

We have the introduction of Luna Lovegood, who will become very important in later books.

Also, the "gang" finds out about Neville's parents...very important since Neville could have been in Harry's shoes, had "Lord-Thingy" chosen differently!

There is so much more I could say about it...it's Harry Potter after all...that alone earns it 4 stars :c)...but, at the risk of boring you to tears...I will stop & say...

4 stars :c)

Review: Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire

My rating: 5 of 5 stars



I love this book! It is my absolute favorite of the series! The tournament is so much fun, and it is a nice break from the "You-know-who is gonna get you" that a lot of the series gets mired in!

Another reason I love this one...they are getting older! They're more fun...not kids anymore! Forming romantic relationships, getting jealous and not understanding why, etc...

10 STARS! Love it!

Review: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets

My rating: 4 of 5 stars



What to say about this book?

Well...it's Harry Potter...you have to read it to get to the next one or you will get all confused and lost...

It is not, however, my favorite of the series...far from it!

It's not a bad book...it's just a bit slow and there's not a lot of the wonderful side stories and adventures that are so totally unrelated to the majority of the story they aren't included in the movies! These are the reason I read the books!

Very rarely will you see me checked in (GetGlue) to a harry potter movie...they are so sorely lacking in content from the books that they ruin the whole experience for me! I totally prefer the books!

This one gets 4 stars...the only Harry Potter book to not earn the full 5...

Review: Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone

My rating: 5 of 5 stars



I love Harry Potter! These books are so much fun! You almost have to wonder if J.K Rowling hasn't told the world some huge secret and we're all just too skeptical to believe!

I am very glad that these are on my Summer Bucket List!
