Review: Harry Potter & the Goblet of Fire




Description: The summer holidays are dragging on and Harry Potter can't wait for the start of the school year. It is his fourth year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and there are spells to be learnt, potions to be brewed and Divination lessons (sigh) to be attended. Harry is expecting these: however, other quite unexpected events are already on the march 



Review:This book has a big difference compared to the previous one.  This is more darker and not childish anymore, which is  a plus for me. It's a great read! It has a twist that I didn't expect. It was a page turner, especially because  Lord Voldemort was there  . (Ooooh, I must not say his name ) I enjoyed the Triwizard Tournament, the parts where Harry was finding his ways in fighting the tasks. I felt sad for Harry because of what's his facing through. He  felt too much depression here. But thanks to his friends who always help him. I can't still move on with this story because it was a pleasure reading it!

Review:Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban




Now, I know the reason why people worship J.K Rowling!

I admit I was not a huge fan of Harry Potter books, unlike others.  Because I always got to see this  in almost everything, movies, tumblr , facebook etc. I find it hard to cope up , by then I realized I got too old for this and got bored. I actually  finished the first book  last  year, but somehow I forgot the story and the feeling of excitement reading it.

But now that I finished this 3rd book, I ate all of my words. Reading Harry Potter  didn't bore me to death.  I experienced being in Hogwarts too, at last !  Now I know the feeling!  I even  find myself, reading the book while eating lunch! It really got me hooked in reading. I fully understood now the story of Harry Potter , because before when I watched the movie , I didn't understood a thing. It's a great decision for me to read the  book first then watch all the movies afterwards , so I would be  familiarized with the characters and what was happening.  I haven't read the second book though, I must read it soon. But because I became to love the book and the characters (Harry, Ron, Hermione and Draco.. even Snape! and everyone), I decided to go along with the fourth book , The Goblet of Fire instead. Then go back to the 1st and 2nd   books.

 Okay I talk too much, here's my review. Finally!

Review

 This is magic! For me, it's  more magical than the movie, or is it because I haven't watched them all yet? Whatever , the book  is superb!  J.K Rowling writes with simplicity yet never failed to amaze the reader.  Hogwarts seem real , it makes me want to study and live  there! Learning potions and spells , would seem nice and awesome. I felt that I was also a part of it. The author's idea is just wow! I never expected how the events would turn out. How one character would transform into someone you never thought him to be.  After all this time it's only now that  I know who Sirius Black is !

All in all this is an incredible book really, I can't believe I've only read it now. Because of this, I'm all set to read all the series. I can't also believe that I'm gonna say this,  I know I'm all late and as they say "better late than never"  but  , Yay I'm also a fan of Harry Potter, whoop whoop!
