Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone

By JK Rowling

Yes! I'm reviewing the Harry Potter series, beloved by most (who also mostly hate the Twilight series), hated by some, and made into 8 movies. :)

So, this, as all of you should know, is the first book in the Harry Potter series. It introduces us to The Boy Who Lived, very awkward HP. And we learn his whole family hates him and his father and mother were killed by He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named/You-Know-Who/Voldemort. And like, a bunch of stuff happens and then Harry evades death and delays Voldy's return to power for another year until the next book. And the Gryffindor house (Harry's house) is victorious in the House Cup and all is happy jolly except for Draco Malfoy and the Slytherin house (the Gryffindors beat them by 10 point right before they officially were awarded it. So much for not playing favorite, Dumblydore.)

This book only gets a 3.7 because I felt it was very disjointed, een though it does have to cover an entire year in 302 pages. It's still a brilliant book if a little childish in the language. But that will get more sophisticated as the books progress. :) See y'all next time!
