Harry Potter #3
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban
Harry Potter, along with his best friends, Ron and Hermione, is about to start his third year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Harry can't wait to get back to school after the summer holidays. (Who wouldn't if they lived with the horrible Dursleys?) But when Harry gets to Hogwarts, the atmosphere is tense. There's an escaped mass murderer on the loose, and the sinister prison guards of Azkaban have been called in to guard the school...

Although she writes under the pen name J.K. Rowling, pronounced like rolling, her name when her first Harry Potter book was published was simply Joanne Rowling. Anticipating that the target audience of young boys might not want to read a book written by a woman, her publishers demanded that she use two initials, rather than her full name. As she had no middle name, she chose K as the second initial of her pen name, from her paternal grandmother Kathleen Ada Bulgen Rowling. She calls herself Jo and has said, "No one ever called me 'Joanne' when I was young, unless they were angry." Following her marriage, she has sometimes used the name Joanne Murray when conducting personal business. During the Leveson Inquiry she gave evidence under the name of Joanne Kathleen Rowling. In a 2012 interview, Rowling noted that she no longer cared that people pronounced her name incorrectly.
Rowling was born to Peter James Rowling, a Rolls-Royce aircraft engineer, and Anne Rowling (n茅e Volant), on 31 July 1965 in Yate, Gloucestershire, England, 10 miles (16 km) northeast of Bristol. Her mother Anne was half-French and half-Scottish. Her parents first met on a train departing from King's Cross Station bound for Arbroath in 1964. They married on 14 March 1965. Her mother's maternal grandfather, Dugald Campbell, was born in Lamlash on the Isle of Arran. Her mother's paternal grandfather, Louis Volant, was awarded the Croix de Guerre for exceptional bravery in defending the village of Courcelles-le-Comte during the First World War.
Rowling's sister Dianne was born at their home when Rowling was 23 months old. The family moved to the nearby village Winterbourne when Rowling was four. She attended St Michael's Primary School, a school founded by abolitionist William Wilberforce and education reformer Hannah More. Her headmaster at St Michael's, Alfred Dunn, has been suggested as the inspiration for the Harry Potter headmaster Albus Dumbledore.
As a child, Rowling often wrote fantasy stories, which she would usually then read to her sister. She recalls that: "I can still remember me telling her a story in which she fell down a rabbit hole and was fed strawberries by the rabbit family inside it. Certainly the first story I ever wrote down (when I was five or six) was about a rabbit called Rabbit. He got the measles and was visited by his friends, including a giant bee called Miss Bee." At the age of nine, Rowling moved to Church Cottage in the Gloucestershire village of Tutshill, close to Chepstow, Wales. When she was a young teenager, her great aunt, who Rowling said "taught classics and approved of a thirst for knowledge, even of a questionable kind," gave her a very old copy of Jessica Mitford's autobiography, Hons and Rebels. Mitford became Rowling's heroine, and Rowling subsequently read all of her books.
Rowling has said of her teenage years, in an interview with The New Yorker, "I wasn鈥檛 particularly happy. I think it鈥檚 a dreadful time of life." She had a difficult homelife; her mother was ill and she had a difficult relationship with her father (she is no longer on speaking terms with him). She attended secondary school at Wyedean School and College, where her mother had worked as a technician in the science department. Rowling said of her adolescence, "Hermione [a bookish, know-it-all Harry Potter character] is loosely based on me. She's a caricature of me when I was eleven, which I'm not particularly proud of." Steve Eddy, who taught Rowling English when she first arrived, remembers her as "not exceptional" but "one of a group of girls who were bright, and quite good at English." Sean Harris, her best friend in the Upper Sixth owned a turquoise Ford Anglia, which she says inspired the one in her books.

I last read this book when I was 14 years old, given that I'm almost 32 now, I have a whole new perspective on it. Despite the fact that I gave this book 5 stars previously, I have to admit that it didn't grow on me until this, my second read.
Confession time: I didn't like Remus or Sirius.
*Khanh ducks as rotten fruit and eggs are thrown her way*
OK, OK, I'M SORRY! I've since changed my mind! Notice that I used the past tense.
Obviously, there will be spoilers for the book below, for the 1.5 of you who haven't read this yet.
I can't even recall why this book wasn't memorable to me. All I remembered was that Sirius - and what happened to him - was terrible, but he's like meh to me; I just never connected with him as a character. Remus was a werewolf and I've never liked werewolves. The Marauders in general were just a bunch of rowdy teenaged boys, and having been the target for teasing from rowdy, rude teenaged boys in my youth, I just didn't care for the way they were portrayed. And I was right, somewhat, James, et al weren't perfect. They bullied Snape, they were little shitheads.
Yes, eventually they became productive, admirable members of society, but I just didn't like them at first.
I guess this is one of those books that just takes time to grow on you.
This is the last Harry Potter book in which Harry is a child. Before his life - and this series - was visited by the spectre of death. I'm not talking about the long-ago deaths of James and Lily, of course Harry has experienced deaths before, but it was distant. I'm talking about the future deaths where Harry lost people he actually remembered, and respected, and loved. That's what I mean when I say that this is the last book in which Harry is a child, because as hard as his life was until now, he still had his innocence.
Children believe that their heroes are unerring. One of the rites of passage to adulthood is the realization that heroes fall, like everyone else.
Harry stared up into the grave face and felt as though the ground beneath him was falling sharply away. He had grown used to the idea that Dumbledore could solve anything. He had expected Dumbledore to pull some amazing solution out of the air. But no 鈥� their last hope was gone.I know that everyone loves Sirius, but for some reason, he didn't click for me when I was 14. This time around, I could understand his character more. I could relate to his desperation, his frustration, and the hope that kept him alive all those excruciating years in Azkaban.
鈥業 don鈥檛 know how I did it,鈥� he said slowly. 鈥業 think the only reason I never lost my mind is that I knew I was innocent. That wasn鈥檛 a happy thought, so the Dementors couldn鈥檛 suck it out of me 鈥� but it kept me sane.I think for me, it took maturity and the experience of loss and frustration, well, life itself, in order to appreciate the hardship that Harry and Sirius and Remus went through.
Previously, this was a magical Cinderella-like tale about a boy in a room under the stairs. With this book, the story became twisted, and it became something more.

I am both pleasantly surprised and mad that I ended up enjoying this audiobook and getting invested in Sirius Black. The story really improved when we discovered more about the background story of events that happened before Harry's generation. I enjoyed learning more about the adult characters and being surprised at the plot developments.

Notes: Separating itself from its forebears, it's a story of greater complexity, darker tones, and a vastly expanded mythology.

This home prison a.k.a voluntarily quarantine making cookies and throwing them into trash days( I never say I鈥檓 a good cook and each day I鈥檓 getting worse!) giving me nostalgic vibes. It鈥檚 like living never ending mercury retrograde! You don鈥檛 want to start a new thing, you have to go back to your past or you have to deal with your unfinished businesses.
Of course this is not a book from my TBR or DNF list. I鈥檝e read it very same day it has been released: 16 freaking years ago when I was still hot, dump, in my silly 20鈥檚 . The year I finished it, I flipped my bird to my managers at the workplace and quitted for chasing my writing dreams. (It was not entertaining, sunshine and rainbow story, there is so much rebellion, pain, fight, humiliation but freedom never comes without dues to pay!) And after devouring this book in one day( because I locked myself at my childhood room. Yes, I was single! It was easier to isolate yourself!) and I decided that鈥檚 my all time favorite Harry Potter book (I know there were more to come but my life was changing and my three musketeers鈥� lives were also going different directions. They were finally growing up, just like me!)
Sirius Black has a special place in my heart and at the beginning he escaped from Azkaban and we think he was after Harry to kill him. This book faces Harry鈥檚 past trauma about his family, his guilt feelings, night terror, his self insecurities and sometimes we think his inner demons were more terrifying than the outside world鈥檚 vicious, dangerous avengers coming after him.
And at the end, Harry and Sirius鈥檚 special relationship always melts my heart and fills my eyes in tears. I always find this is one of the most meaningful and genuine relationships JKR formed between two characters.
And we also see the growing pains of two main characters: Ron always loyal, likable, witty and Hermione is passionate, intelligent but also kind-hearted.
Maybe this is the best part of their story because after this book, everything gets bleaker, darker and more violent! My dear three musketeers鈥� lives will never be the same.
I read this book 16 years by locking myself in my room and as a de je vu or reenactment of my younger and dumber self, I reread my favorite HP book. I smiled, entertained, cried, jumped, horrified again! And I felt good and gave my five gazillion stars over and over again!
In these days, the best thing you gotta do: sticking with the things that makes you happy and rekindle your past experiments by making a visit to your memory lane with a great book!
That鈥檚 what I did and it worked so well with me!

It's a rainy Sunday. It's colder than it should be this time of the year, so I'm drinking a delicious cup of coffee and I'm browsing my 欧宝娱乐 shelves only to realise that I haven't written a Harry Potter review. Not a single one. So, I decided to start with the first Harry Potter book I ever read, the one that took me to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and made me believe that magic is something tangible.
I was 16 years old, and I had just started my english classes in order to pass my Proficiency examinations. My teacher told me that the best way to delve into a foreign language and familiarize with it is to read books written in it, so she gave me the third instalment of Harry Potter. (Little did she know that she unleashed a beast who now reads almost exclusively in english). Before I tell you about my experience, I need to make a confession. It was my choice to stay away from 's books until that moment. I wanted to swim against the current, and I thought that Harry Potter was too "mainstream" for my taste. And the foolish little me was proud of this decision. But when my teacher gave me this old, used copy, something inside me cracked. I knew the basics about the story, about the orphan kid who goes to a school for wizards and fights the ugly, evil dude who doesn't have a nose. But page by page, I came to understand with awe that the wizard who finds trouble even when he doesn't want to offers more than that; he opened a portal to a world where I longed to be fervently. I stayed up late at night, with a faint light just enough to make out the sentences, and I cheered for Gryffindor's Quidditch team, I flied with Firebolt and I kept wondering what my patronus would be (according to Pottermore it's a brown mastiff, which is oddly fitting). I casted spells (but never Avada Kedavra, you shouldn't play with this shit) and tasted butterbeer in Hogsmeade, and just like that, my life had changed irrevocably. I was a Potterhead. And I was proud of that. (my mum wasn't though, especially when I asked for a wand).
There is a reason why is the fairy god-mother to millions of children (and adults) worldwide. Friendship, love, hope, they're present in her books even in the most desperate times, when Evil seems undefeatable, when no escape is visible. She encourages and empowers, shows that everything is possible, that strength and courage can be found within, when you have someone to hold your hand. Harry was a kid who was deprived of love yet he was capable of loving, it took him years but he finally found a place to belong, to feel safe and cared. Ron, with his witty lines and his constant presence, Hermione, my personal favorite, with her intelligence and compassion, they managed to enchant my prejudiced heart, and even now, years later, I'm still under their spell. I think I will always be.
I'm still waiting for my Hogwarts letter, and secretly hope that Dobby is the one to blame. I still caress with affection the spines of my Harry Potter books (meanwhile I bought them all and finished the entire series in a week and a half) and laugh at Harry Potter jokes. And I know, and it's imprinted in my soul, that I'll never be a muggle again.
鈥淚 solemnly swear that I am up to no good.鈥�

鈥淗appiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light.鈥�
As it seems my Harry Potter reviews don鈥檛 always start with a Dumbledore quote but always end up being 鈥淢y thoughts about this book鈥� reviews as well. For a series like HP that鈥檚 been read by so many people this might be the best solution though. And because the books get longer and longer and because I don鈥檛 share my friend Jayson鈥檚 amazing and remarkable ability to describe a book in one significant sentence, I鈥檓 afraid you鈥檒l have to bear with quite a lot of my thoughts. *lol*
1.) 鈥滻t鈥檚 one of the basic rules of breeding,鈥� she said. 鈥淵ou see it all the time with dogs. If there鈥檚 something wrong with the bitch, there鈥檒l be something wrong with the pup-鈥�
Aunt Marge is such a horrible person!!! If you ask me she鈥檚 really lucky that Harry is such a precious cinnamon roll and only made her a big bubble gum. *lol* The audacity to talk about his dead parents like that! No wonder Harry got so angry!! Aunt Marge can float to hell!
2.) 鈥滻鈥檝e already had some,鈥� said Harry. 鈥淧rofessor Lupin gave me some. He gave it to all of us.鈥�
鈥淒id he, now?鈥� said Madam Pomfrey approvingly. 鈥淪o we鈥檝e finally got a Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher who knows his remedies.鈥�
Lupin is the best DADA teacher they ever had and I love him so much! <333 His character is just great and I wish we would have seen even more of him. Unfortunately we weren鈥檛 blessed with all too many Lupin scenes. >_<
3.) 鈥滺ow extraordinarily like your father you are, Potter,鈥� Snape said suddenly, his eyes glinting. 鈥淗e, too, was exceedingly arrogant. A small amount of talent on the Quidditch pitch made him think he was a cut above the rest of us, too. Strutting around the place with his friends and admirers鈥� the resemblance between you is uncanny.鈥�
And speaking of the best teacher we come directly to the worst! Snape is such a horrible teacher I can鈥檛 even! I said it once and I鈥檒l say it again: He's cruel, he's a bully, he takes delight in instilling fear in his students. And he verbally and emotionally abuses them. His personal vendetta against Harry who never ever did anything to him except of looking like his dead father is just crazy! Movie Snape is way nicer than the one in the books and I'm sorry but if you ask me #SnapeCan'tBeRedeemed"!!
4.) 鈥漈hey鈥檝e got a new captain and Seeker, Cedric Diggory-鈥�
Angelina, Alicia and Katie suddenly giggled.
鈥淲hat?鈥� said Wood, frowning at this light-hearted behaviour.
鈥淗e鈥檚 that tall, good-looking one, isn鈥檛 he?鈥� said Angelina.
It鈥檚 the third book and Cedric Diggory and Cho Chang are already mentioned! Also did anyone notice that they are both introduced as Seekers as well? ;-) So we have all the main players for book 4! Harry, Draco, Cho and Cedric! XD (On a side note: Considering the giggling girls Robert Pattinson truly is a good cast! *lol*)
5.) 鈥漎ou asked us a question and she knows the answer! Why ask if you don鈥檛 want to be told?鈥�
Ron never ceases to amaze me! He鈥檚 such a shy guy but boy does he become a lion when he defends the people he cares about! <3
6.) 鈥滵ementors are among the foulest creatures that walk this earth. They infest the darkest, filthiest places, they glory in decay and despair, they drain peace, hope and happiness out of the air around them. Even Muggles feel their presence, though they can鈥檛 see them. Get too near a Dementor and every good feeling, every happy memory, will be sucked out of you.鈥�
The Dementor鈥檚 Kiss reminded me of one of my rp characters that died through one. Ahh the good old roleplay times. *lol* Anyway, moving on! I was always intrigued by the idea of Dementors and even after so many years their existence and mystery still didn鈥檛 lose its appeal! They are really fascinating creatures and even though I never want to meet one I still can鈥檛 help but take an interest in them. =) Certainly one of the best things about this book!
7.) 鈥滿r Moony presents his compliments to Professor Snape, and begs him to keep his abnormally large nose out of other people鈥檚 business.鈥�
The first mention of the Marauder鈥檚 Map! 鈥淭he Prisoner of Azkaban鈥� is certainly one of those main books that build the foundation for everything that鈥檚 yet to come. And it鈥檚 already way darker than its predecessors. Bless Fred and George for handing Harry the map! Heaven knows he鈥檒l have good use for it in the years to come. ;-P
8.) 鈥漈hey鈥檙e dead,鈥� he told himself sternly. 鈥淭hey鈥檙e dead, and listening to echoes of them won鈥檛 bring them back.鈥�
It always kills me to read about how Harry struggles with the knowledge - or rather the lack of knowledge - about his parents. My heart bleeds for him whenever they are mentioned. I mean jeez, he鈥檇 endure a Dementor just to hear their voices. T_T
9.) 鈥淪he鈥檚 got her heart in the right place, Hermione has, an鈥� you two not talkin鈥� to her 鈥撯€�
Is it just me or is this actually a reoccurring theme? Since book one there always seem to be sections in which they don鈥檛 talk to each other because something gets in their way. And if my memory serves me right things are going to continue in this vein. XD
10.) 鈥漇he had slapped Malfoy around the face with all the strength she could muster. Malfoy staggered.鈥�
Once again I want to point out that I鈥檓 a pacifist! The way Hermione dished out that slap was pretty spectacular though! *lol* Guess she took Mr. Weasley as an example. Haha! Sound advice for parents: You better don鈥檛 slap mean people in front of your kids! ;-P Also is it just me or did anyone else notice the irony of the situation? A person like Hermione, a person that values words, resorted to actions because she realized words won鈥檛 get her far with a Malfoy. *lol*
11.) 鈥漈HIRTY-ZERO! TAKE THAT, YOU DIRTY, CHEATING-鈥�
鈥淛ordan, if you can鈥檛 commentate in an unbiased way-!鈥�
鈥淚鈥檓 telling it like it is, Professor!鈥�
Jordan鈥檚 Quidditch commentary is legit one of the best things about the series! Well and the matches themselves of course. XD Plus McGonagall swearing like a trooper because the Slytherin team was playing so foul is one of the best things ever! Haha! Especially because she obviously tried to keep everything objective and neutral at first. *lol*
11.)
12.)
I can鈥檛 wait to read 鈥淭he Goblet of Fire鈥�! Not just because it鈥檚 one of my favourite HP books but also because I want to find out which other details I missed the first time around! It will get dark now and I鈥檓 so ready for it!!! <3
_________________
I鈥檓 on a Harry Potter roll this year!
So now that Christmas is coming closer with every passing day it鈥檚 about time to dive into one of my favourites! =)
I always liked 鈥淭he Prisoner of Azkaban鈥�! Not only because the kids have grown so much but also because it marks the beginning of the series getting all 鈥淪irius鈥�. *lol* (Sorry, I couldn鈥檛 help it. XD)
But honestly, there are so many awesome things that happen in this book and there are so many new characters that are introduced, it鈥檚 just amazing! <3
Happy reading!
I鈥檓 sure I鈥檒l have a good time!

And because the books get longer and longer and because I don鈥檛 share my friend Jayson鈥檚 amazing and remarkable ability to describe a book in one significant sentence, I鈥檓 afraid you鈥檒l have to bear with quite a lot of my thoughts. *lol*
1.) 鈥滻t鈥檚 one of the basic rules of breeding,鈥� she said. 鈥淵ou see it all the time with dogs. If there鈥檚 something wrong with the bitch, there鈥檒l be something wrong with the pup-鈥�
Aunt Marge is such a horrible person!!! If you ask me she鈥檚 really lucky that Harry is such a precious cinnamon roll and only made her a big bubble gum. *lol* The audacity to talk about his dead parents like that! No wonder Harry got so angry!! Aunt Marge can float to hell!
2.) 鈥滻鈥檝e already had some,鈥� said Harry. 鈥淧rofessor Lupin gave me some. He gave it to all of us.鈥�
鈥淒id he, now?鈥� said Madam Pomfrey approvingly. 鈥淪o we鈥檝e finally got a Defence Against the Dark Arts teacher who knows his remedies.鈥�
Lupin is the best DADA teacher they ever had and I love him so much! <333 His character is just great and I wish we would have seen even more of him. Unfortunately we weren鈥檛 blessed with all too many Lupin scenes. >_<
3.) 鈥滺ow extraordinarily like your father you are, Potter,鈥� Snape said suddenly, his eyes glinting. 鈥淗e, too, was exceedingly arrogant. A small amount of talent on the Quidditch pitch made him think he was a cut above the rest of us, too. Strutting around the place with his friends and admirers鈥� the resemblance between you is uncanny.鈥�
And speaking of the best teacher we come directly to the worst! Snape is such a horrible teacher I can鈥檛 even! I said it once and I鈥檒l say it again: He's cruel, he's a bully, he takes delight in instilling fear in his students. And he verbally and emotionally abuses them. His personal vendetta against Harry who never ever did anything to him except of looking like his dead father is just crazy! Movie Snape is way nicer than the one in the books and I'm sorry but if you ask me #SnapeCan'tBeRedeemed"!!
4.) 鈥漈hey鈥檝e got a new captain and Seeker, Cedric Diggory-鈥�
Angelina, Alicia and Katie suddenly giggled.
鈥淲hat?鈥� said Wood, frowning at this light-hearted behaviour.
鈥淗e鈥檚 that tall, good-looking one, isn鈥檛 he?鈥� said Angelina.
It鈥檚 the third book and Cedric Diggory and Cho Chang are already mentioned! Also did anyone notice that they are both introduced as Seekers as well? ;-) So we have all the main players for book 4! Harry, Draco, Cho and Cedric! XD (On a side note: Considering the giggling girls Robert Pattinson truly is a good cast! *lol*)
5.) 鈥漎ou asked us a question and she knows the answer! Why ask if you don鈥檛 want to be told?鈥�
Ron never ceases to amaze me! He鈥檚 such a shy guy but boy does he become a lion when he defends the people he cares about! <3
6.) 鈥滵ementors are among the foulest creatures that walk this earth. They infest the darkest, filthiest places, they glory in decay and despair, they drain peace, hope and happiness out of the air around them. Even Muggles feel their presence, though they can鈥檛 see them. Get too near a Dementor and every good feeling, every happy memory, will be sucked out of you.鈥�
The Dementor鈥檚 Kiss reminded me of one of my rp characters that died through one. Ahh the good old roleplay times. *lol* Anyway, moving on! I was always intrigued by the idea of Dementors and even after so many years their existence and mystery still didn鈥檛 lose its appeal! They are really fascinating creatures and even though I never want to meet one I still can鈥檛 help but take an interest in them. =) Certainly one of the best things about this book!
7.) 鈥滿r Moony presents his compliments to Professor Snape, and begs him to keep his abnormally large nose out of other people鈥檚 business.鈥�
The first mention of the Marauder鈥檚 Map! 鈥淭he Prisoner of Azkaban鈥� is certainly one of those main books that build the foundation for everything that鈥檚 yet to come. And it鈥檚 already way darker than its predecessors. Bless Fred and George for handing Harry the map! Heaven knows he鈥檒l have good use for it in the years to come. ;-P
8.) 鈥漈hey鈥檙e dead,鈥� he told himself sternly. 鈥淭hey鈥檙e dead, and listening to echoes of them won鈥檛 bring them back.鈥�
It always kills me to read about how Harry struggles with the knowledge - or rather the lack of knowledge - about his parents. My heart bleeds for him whenever they are mentioned. I mean jeez, he鈥檇 endure a Dementor just to hear their voices. T_T
9.) 鈥淪he鈥檚 got her heart in the right place, Hermione has, an鈥� you two not talkin鈥� to her 鈥撯€�
Is it just me or is this actually a reoccurring theme? Since book one there always seem to be sections in which they don鈥檛 talk to each other because something gets in their way. And if my memory serves me right things are going to continue in this vein. XD
10.) 鈥漇he had slapped Malfoy around the face with all the strength she could muster. Malfoy staggered.鈥�
Once again I want to point out that I鈥檓 a pacifist! The way Hermione dished out that slap was pretty spectacular though! *lol* Guess she took Mr. Weasley as an example. Haha! Sound advice for parents: You better don鈥檛 slap mean people in front of your kids! ;-P Also is it just me or did anyone else notice the irony of the situation? A person like Hermione, a person that values words, resorted to actions because she realized words won鈥檛 get her far with a Malfoy. *lol*
11.) 鈥漈HIRTY-ZERO! TAKE THAT, YOU DIRTY, CHEATING-鈥�
鈥淛ordan, if you can鈥檛 commentate in an unbiased way-!鈥�
鈥淚鈥檓 telling it like it is, Professor!鈥�
Jordan鈥檚 Quidditch commentary is legit one of the best things about the series! Well and the matches themselves of course. XD Plus McGonagall swearing like a trooper because the Slytherin team was playing so foul is one of the best things ever! Haha! Especially because she obviously tried to keep everything objective and neutral at first. *lol*
11.)
12.)
I can鈥檛 wait to read 鈥淭he Goblet of Fire鈥�! Not just because it鈥檚 one of my favourite HP books but also because I want to find out which other details I missed the first time around! It will get dark now and I鈥檓 so ready for it!!! <3
_________________
I鈥檓 on a Harry Potter roll this year!
So now that Christmas is coming closer with every passing day it鈥檚 about time to dive into one of my favourites! =)
I always liked 鈥淭he Prisoner of Azkaban鈥�! Not only because the kids have grown so much but also because it marks the beginning of the series getting all 鈥淪irius鈥�. *lol* (Sorry, I couldn鈥檛 help it. XD)
But honestly, there are so many awesome things that happen in this book and there are so many new characters that are introduced, it鈥檚 just amazing! <3
Happy reading!
I鈥檓 sure I鈥檒l have a good time!

"Oy! Presents!"
I'm flabbergasted, again. This one deviates from what it had been for the first two books - by a mile!. Just when I thought the second one was more detailed compared to the first. Prisoner of Azkaban is much more complex, having a lengthier plot, more descriptive characters and environs, but still not lacking in any way. It makes the first two feel like short stories. I'm going to stop saying this is 'The Best' until I'm done with the series, for, right now it feels like it'll keep getting better till the series end. (So, it goes without saying, it's 'The Best So Far.')
"The consequences of our actions are always so complicated, so diverse, that predicting the future is a very difficult business"
Though the first two books were quite wonderful, the build-up for events seemed much better in this third book. The occurring of events seemed much less transparent, and manages to keep the reader well in suspense right till the end. The plot feels to be moving more in-line with the core of series - towards a bit darker side - as the first two had already laid a strong foundation. And the world of magic keeps expanding, with a lot of interesting elements being added to it! I hope I'm not getting ahead of myself when I say, this is becoming one of my favorite book series of all time.

Sirius Black, a prisoner at Azkaban, has escaped and is out on the loose. How will Harry survive?
I will likely rewrite this review at some point in the future as I have a serious cold and feel like I am on my deathbed. I need to layoff the Greek mythology because I might have muttered that I was the goddess of animals in a state of delirium. Anyways, Harry Potter.
What I enjoyed about Harry Potter #1 was his wonderment and amazement. He is grateful that he isn鈥檛 going to be stuck with the Dursleys anymore. Now, in Harry Potter #3, the wonder and amazement are gone. Harry is constantly bemoaning that he can鈥檛 go to Hogsmeade. Harry Potter #3 does show some character development because Harry finally decides to stop waiting for someone to rescue him from the Dursleys and leaves on his own accord. I鈥檓 still completely baffled as to why he doesn鈥檛 make arrangements to stay with Hermione or Ron or even Hagrid.
The story itself is ok. JK Rowling relies too heavily on the popularity of the fan favorite characters. The ending on this seemed to drag on and on. The book also lacked some originality. This book revisits many of the tropes that were explored in the first two books, starting off at the Dursley鈥檚, going to school, and Quidditch. The books almost seem to follow a formula. Given the events in Harry Potter #3, I would have been more interested to hear the story from the perspective of Hermione (getting to know her Muggle family and what they think of the school, all of Hermione鈥檚 different classes, what the girls of the school think of her, etc.). Additionally, Professor Trelawney seemed like a watered-down version of Miss Cleo. Harry Potter #3 is longer than the first two installments, and it could have used some additional editing down.
One of the biggest positives about this book is that now whenever I am eating some chocolate, I can tell people that I am just recovering from a dementor attack.

My younger self in me is sooooo happy bc of it!

ENGLISH () / ITALIANO
芦Harry Potter was a highly unusual boy in many ways.For one thing, he hated the summer holidays more than any other time of year. For another, he really wanted to do his homework but was forced to do it in secret, in the dead of night. And he also happened to be a wizard禄
Sirius Black's escape from Azkaban prison is on every wizard's lips. Not even the dreaded guards of the prison, the Dementors, managed to keep in a cage the wicked wizard, who probably want to meet again his master, Voldemort. But to do that, firstly he must kill Harry Potter, the only one capable to stand up to Voldemort... Meanwhile, the new school year is about to start at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, and Harry, Ron and hermione will become acquainted with two new professors...
Compared to the previous, the third volume of the series is the one that is richer in twists and turns. I'm reading the saga of Harry Potter to my daughter, when in the evening she goes to bed, and in this "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban" a little tragedy happened. When we got to "The kiss of the dementor" chapter, just hearing the title my daughter (6 years old) was so upset by what it might happen that she required that I read that chapter alone, and just then telling her what was going on by omitting the scary details. Apart from this hiccup, the reading was neat and clean. It is evident that the playful and carefree tones of the first two adventures give way to dark colors. After all harry is growing up, and its way of seeing things is supposed to change as well. Rowling takes us in the maturation process of the most famous little wizard of the world using the same plot device of the previous volumes: the teachings of Headmaster Dumbledore, the clashes with Malfoy, the bickering with Hermione, the conflicts with Professor Snape. I do not know if in the near future I will continue to read to my daughter the Harry Potter saga, or if I will wait she grows enough to read it alone to avoid upsetting her again. Never mind. I will go on because now it is not possible for me to stop reading, with the pleasant awareness that there is no healthier addiction of this one. "Get high" yourself too.

芦Harry Potter era un ragazzo insolito sotto molti punti di vista. Prima di tutto, odiava le vacanze estive pi霉 di qualunque altro periodo dell'anno. Poi voleva davvero fare i compiti, ma era costretto a studiare di nascosto, nel cuore della notte. E per giunta era un mago禄
La fuga di Sirius Black dalla prigione di Azkaban 猫 sulla bocca di tutti i maghi. Nemmeno i temuti guardiani del carcere, i Dissennatori, sono riusciti a tenere in gabbia il malvagio stregone, che si dice voglia riunirsi al suo padrone, Voldemort. Per farlo per貌 dovr脿 prima eliminare Harry Potter, l'unico che fino ad ora 猫 stato in grado di tenere testa a Voldemort... Nel frattempo, alla scuola di magia e stregoneria di Hogwarts sta per cominciare il nuovo anno scolastico, ed Harry, Ron ed Hermione faranno la conoscenza di due nuovi professori...
Rispetto ai due precedenti, il terzo volume della serie 猫 quello pi霉 ricco di colpi di scena, e di conseguenza quello con il ritmo pi霉 serrato. Sto leggendo la saga di Harry Potter a mia figlia quando la sera va a letto, ed in questo "Harry Potter e il Prigioniero di Azkaban" 猫 successa una piccola tragedia. Arrivati al capitolo "il bacio del dissennatore", al solo sentire il titolo mia figlia (6 anni) 猫 rimasta cos矛 turbata da quello che sarebbe potuto accadere che ha preteso che lo leggessi io da solo, e che le raccontassi quello che succedeva omettendo i particolari spaventosi. A parte questo intoppo, la lettura 猫 continuata liscia. E' evidente che i toni giocosi e spensierati delle prime due avventure lasciano il posto a sfumature a tratti cupe e goticheggianti. D'altronde Harry sta crescendo, e si suppone che cambi anche il suo modo di vedere le cose. La Rowling ci accompagna nel processo di maturazione del maghetto pi霉 famoso del mondo utilizzando gli stessi espedienti narrativi usati negli altri volumi: gli insegnamenti di Silente, gli scontri con Malfoy, i battibecchi con Hermione, i conflitti con Piton. Non so se nell'immediato futuro continuer貌 a leggere a mia figlia la saga di Harry Potter, o se aspetter貌 che cresca abbastanza da essere in grado di leggerseli da sola per evitare adesso di turbarla. Non importa. Io andr貌 avanti perch猫 per me non 猫 pi霉 possibile fermarmi, con la piacevole consapevolezza che non esiste dipendenza pi霉 salutare di questa. "Drogatevi" anche voi.

I'm just going to add a few gifs and pictures from my book. Harry Potter books will always be 5 star no matter how many times they are read. (Hermione forever!)
I fell in love with S. Black in this book and I never looked back.
I'm going to add some pictures from my book, although now, I wish I would have added more but it is what it is. . . maybe later
I love these big illustrated coffee table editions of the books. It makes re-reading them an extremely fun experience. I just wish she would put them all out at once. I know, I know... I'm ready for the next though.
Happy Reading!

if you count fangirling as one
4.5 Golden stars

For some reason, I never really liked Prisoner of Azkaban when I was younger, I thought it as a sidejob, after Chamber of Secrets & that big Revelation, I waited for more (& there was a little amount of waiting before the book been translated, so maybe that might be a reason too, a kind of mild disappointment & no book after that.), so I thought it was, not as important as the last book... but after 13/14th re-read in 2019; I figured out I loved this side of the story too! (it's easier to love when you have all the books in the series)
it's CUTE & Awesome! funny & magical! & all those backstories! the real rate actually improved.
this book is Beautiful & absolutely deserves 5.
the beginning of the story, always unique, funny & Great:
"Harry Potter was a highly unusual boy in many ways. For one thing, he hated the summer holidays more than any other time of year. For another, he really wanted to do his homework but was forced to do it in secret, in the dead of night. And he also happened to be a wizard."
Epic chapters in an Epic world
Amazing story, full of Amazing characters & Amazing revelations!
interesting plot (& plot twists)
the Marauders & their history!
Lupin, witty & mischievous
no surprise he was the brain of the squad
"I've got only teabags, I'm afraid- but I daresay you've had enough of tea leaves?"
Harry looked at him & Lupin's eyes were twinkling.
he's so sweet & caring & motivational, my favourite non-main, yet-important character in the series
Quidditch! not once, not twice, but 3 times! by that funny commentating!
with lots & lots of adventures.
& so much FUN! (I forced myself stop laughing in the middle of the nights when everyone was asleep. mostly by Ron, Fred & George, Harry, Lee & sometimes Wood when it comes to Quidditch.)
"I don't go looking for trouble, trouble usually finds me..."
"Pity you can't attach an extra arm to yours, Malfoy," said Harry. "Then it could catch the Snitch for you.鈥�
Sassy Harry XD
& can we appreciate Harry can usually tell Fred from George apart when everyone else just can't? (I'm so proud!)
every time I'm reading this, I want to 1) continue 2) read All the young dudes. this time (2025) I am doing both, let's see how long it lasts.

June 2024: My thirteen year old suggested that I reread Harry with her this summer. This is my favorite book of the series. I noticed more nuances this time around, and choked back tears and laughter in the appropriate parts. Rowling has said that she wrote this series not as a fun magical series, but as a means of helping the living to cope with loved ones鈥� deaths. Lupin and Sirius are my favorite characters not named Harry and Hermoine in the series. When they are present, Harry feels like he finally has a family. I do not need a reason to have to reread this book every year. What Dumbledore tells Harry in the book鈥檚 closing pages says it all, but in the minuscule event that a person or persons haven鈥檛 read this before, I will not repeat it. On to book 4, mischief managed.
August 2023. Rereading series to commemorate the twenty five years that Harry has been part of our collective history. Nothing like an all time favorite book to comfort me in the wake of an end of summer cold.
Time. The things we could accomplish if we had extra time on our hands. Just this week I mentioned to people that I have been running on fumes with all the things I had to get done. If only I had a few extra hours in my week to take a nap or rest with a book. Thankfully, we have a leap year, providing our busy lives with a full extra day to get those things done that may have been pushed to the back burner. Whether it鈥檚 catching up on sleep, reading, or chores, a leap year creates the impression that there is indeed an extra day to accomplish those things that may have been pushed to the wayside. Despite this, adults rarely have the time to go back and savor favorite books, but, in 2020 a group of us in Retro Chapter Chicks have decided to take the time to reread Harry Potter in all its glory. I find it appropriate that on a day where we can enjoy extra time, that I curled up with my favorite book in the series, one that indeed tests the limit of place and time.
A mass murderer has escaped from prison. The news is so important that it even made the Muggle news. Even Muggles who detest magic like the Dursleys are on high alert. For Harry Potter, a wizard about to enter his third year at Hogwarts, it is just another summer vacation. Although famous and living up to his name during his first two years at school, at the Dursleys he is treated like less than human. His living conditions have advanced from a cupboard under the stairs to a room with bars on the window and a flap on the door for which to receive stone cold meals. Even though Aunt Petunia is Harry鈥檚 blood relative, she also treats him like vermin. Things couldn鈥檛 get any worse until Uncle Vernon鈥檚 sister Marge arrives for a weeklong visit, and she believes that Harry is worthless and ungrateful to his family. What Marge fails to realize is that this so called family wishes that Harry did not exist. Harry鈥檚 true family is thicker than blood and bound by magic: his Hogwarts family. Each summer, life at Dursleys grows unbearable and Marge鈥檚 treatment of Harry puts things over the top. In a fit of teenage emotions, Harry causes Marge to blow up, and then he leaves the Dursleys home, for what he thinks is hopefully for good this time.
Normally use of magic outside of school is grounds for expulsion from school, but, with a murderer named Sirius Black on the loose, the Minister of Magic himself has bent the rules in Harry鈥檚 favor. Minister Cornelius Fudge believes that Black is a dark wizard and servant of Lord Voldemort, and, in his eyes, the safest place for Harry is at Hogwarts under the watchful eyes of Albus Dumbledore. Harry gets a reprieve and is allowed to spend three weeks of his summer vacation away from the Dursleys and will indeed get to return to Hogwarts to continue his magical education. With the addition of Black to the storyline, the stories only get darker. Readers find out that he is the first ever prisoner to escape from Azkaban prison located in the middle of the sea and guarded by dementors, creatures so foul that they suck the happy memories from all those around them. Fudge is convinced that Black is after Harry and has stationed dementors outside of Hogwarts, much to Dumbledore鈥檚 chagrin. As long as Dumbledore is headmaster, dementors will not be allowed inside the castle because he foresees that these horrid creatures are allied with Voldemort. Black was able to outsmart them, and all of England is on high alert. It is against this backdrop and protection that Harry returns to Hogwarts.
Third year students have more responsibilities and more freedoms. They are allowed to visit the village of Hogsmeade provided a parent or guardian signed a form; the Dursleys did not. Yet, they also have enough magical training to sign up for extra classes. Harry, Ron, and Hermoine enroll in Divination and Care of Magical Creatures, taught by none other than Hagrid. Hermoine also begins the study of Ancient Runes, Arithmancy, and Muggle Studies. Harry and Ron do not understand how anyone, even one as smart as Hermoine, could take that many classes. Some are at the same time as others, which makes it humanly impossible for her to attend two classes at once. The dialogue between Ron and Hermoine involving her class schedule speaks to growing relationship between the two, a relationship which neither is mature enough to recognize. Meanwhile, class work has gotten harder. Professor Snape loathes Harry more than ever, and the new Defense of the Dark Arts professor Lupin is an old friend of Harry鈥檚 father. Hagrid, while the nicest person around and Harry鈥檚 protector, is threatened by the Malfoys yet again, this time after Draco is scratched by a hippogriff named Buckbeak because he refused to pay attention in class. Buckbeak is threatened with execution, adding to the animosity between Harry and Draco, and only Hermoine, on top of her grueling class schedule, finds the time to assist Hagrid in his defense. All these storylines would make for an exciting tale, but inserting Lupin and Black and Harry鈥檚 anti-dementor training make this book the turning point in the entire series.
The story progresses, and animals play a key role in plot development: Ron鈥檚 rat, Hermoine鈥檚 cat, and a large black dog. The three are infinitely linked to one another. Rowling reveals that Black was the Potters鈥� secret keeper and only him revealing their whereabouts would expose their location to Voldemort. He was supposedly in jail for murdering twelve innocent people plus a tag along named Peter Pettigrew. He is also Harry鈥檚 godfather. This information has Harry鈥檚 growing teenaged emotions on high. He is more determined than ever to defeat Voldemort and his legion of dark creatures and takes necessary precautions to guard himself against the darkness. Although teenaged pranks occur in this book, my favorite scenes are between Harry and Lupin and Black. Being able to interact with one of his parents鈥� closest friends, one really feels for Harry as an orphan and sees that he truly belongs in the wizarding world and not at the Dursleys. As Rowling will reveal much, much later, Dumbledore has his reasons for placing Harry there, but with each book it gets harder and harder for him to return, even if the presence of these Muggles is key to the plot line.
Time, of course, plays a key role in the plot as well. Hermoine reveals that she has been using a time turner to get to her classes all year but promised not to tell anyone. Sirius turns out to be none other than the dog who has made an appearance throughout the book. He is innocent, yet the only people who believe him are Harry, Ron, Hermoine, and Professor Dumbledore. Lupin is indeed his closest friend and also a werewolf, and it is Pettigrew who is the servant of Lord Voldemort. This, Dumbledore explains to Harry, is magic at its deepest, most impenetrable moments and, in my opinion, the essence of the entire series. As Dumbledore points out time and again, it is one鈥檚 choices that determine one鈥檚 fate, not their abilities. For a few glorious moments Harry believes that he can live with Sirius and escape the Dursleys once and for all; it is the most touching moment, and the scene in the movie where the two of them are staring at Hogwarts castle has brought tears to my eyes on more than one occasion. Yet, this moment is indeed fleeting. The Ministry of Magic still believes that Sirius is a dark wizard and he is forced to flee on Buckbeak the innocent Hippogriff. Readers know that this moment is indeed fleeting because Harry and Sirius will eventually be reunited but for only a short amount of time. It makes for a necessary storyline later on but one that gets harder and harder to stomach with each passing reading. Pretending that I do not know what comes next; however, knowing that Sirius and Lupin reappear in future books is what has always had me excited at the end of this book, a crossroads between the end of Harry鈥檚 adolescence and the darker times that lurk on the horizon.
Time. J.K. Rowling has shown us what can happen if well meaning witches and wizards are given just a few hours extra in their days. Most adults with busy lives wish they were afforded the opportunity to relive hours and minutes in order to accomplish even the most mundane tasks. The climax of this book has revealed how precious time is and to take advantage of what time we do have in order to live life to the fullest. This year鈥檚 leap day provided me with the opportunity to reread favorite books and get some much needed rest that I needed after a busy week. Even in this busy life that I lead, I have found the time to visit Harry Potter鈥檚 magical world yet again. As the plot moves deeper into Harry鈥檚 teenaged years, and, he and his friends are about to embark on fighting the forces of evil, it is obvious that they have left their childhood behind. It is the moments that mark the end of this book combined with the extra time afforded to us this year that show us just how precious the time we have is to us all.

All time favorite book
August 2023. Rereading series to commemorate the twenty five years that Harry has been part of our collective history. Nothing like an all time favorite book to comfort me in the wake of an end of summer cold.
Time. The things we could accomplish if we had extra time on our hands. Just this week I mentioned to people that I have been running on fumes with all the things I had to get done. If only I had a few extra hours in my week to take a nap or rest with a book. Thankfully, we have a leap year, providing our busy lives with a full extra day to get those things done that may have been pushed to the back burner. Whether it鈥檚 catching up on sleep, reading, or chores, a leap year creates the impression that there is indeed an extra day to accomplish those things that may have been pushed to the wayside. Despite this, adults rarely have the time to go back and savor favorite books, but, in 2020 a group of us in Retro Chapter Chicks have decided to take the time to reread Harry Potter in all its glory. I find it appropriate that on a day where we can enjoy extra time, that I curled up with my favorite book in the series, one that indeed tests the limit of place and time.
A mass murderer has escaped from prison. The news is so important that it even made the Muggle news. Even Muggles who detest magic like the Dursleys are on high alert. For Harry Potter, a wizard about to enter his third year at Hogwarts, it is just another summer vacation. Although famous and living up to his name during his first two years at school, at the Dursleys he is treated like less than human. His living conditions have advanced from a cupboard under the stairs to a room with bars on the window and a flap on the door for which to receive stone cold meals. Even though Aunt Petunia is Harry鈥檚 blood relative, she also treats him like vermin. Things couldn鈥檛 get any worse until Uncle Vernon鈥檚 sister Marge arrives for a weeklong visit, and she believes that Harry is worthless and ungrateful to his family. What Marge fails to realize is that this so called family wishes that Harry did not exist. Harry鈥檚 true family is thicker than blood and bound by magic: his Hogwarts family. Each summer, life at Dursleys grows unbearable and Marge鈥檚 treatment of Harry puts things over the top. In a fit of teenage emotions, Harry causes Marge to blow up, and then he leaves the Dursleys home, for what he thinks is hopefully for good this time.
Normally use of magic outside of school is grounds for expulsion from school, but, with a murderer named Sirius Black on the loose, the Minister of Magic himself has bent the rules in Harry鈥檚 favor. Minister Cornelius Fudge believes that Black is a dark wizard and servant of Lord Voldemort, and, in his eyes, the safest place for Harry is at Hogwarts under the watchful eyes of Albus Dumbledore. Harry gets a reprieve and is allowed to spend three weeks of his summer vacation away from the Dursleys and will indeed get to return to Hogwarts to continue his magical education. With the addition of Black to the storyline, the stories only get darker. Readers find out that he is the first ever prisoner to escape from Azkaban prison located in the middle of the sea and guarded by dementors, creatures so foul that they suck the happy memories from all those around them. Fudge is convinced that Black is after Harry and has stationed dementors outside of Hogwarts, much to Dumbledore鈥檚 chagrin. As long as Dumbledore is headmaster, dementors will not be allowed inside the castle because he foresees that these horrid creatures are allied with Voldemort. Black was able to outsmart them, and all of England is on high alert. It is against this backdrop and protection that Harry returns to Hogwarts.
Third year students have more responsibilities and more freedoms. They are allowed to visit the village of Hogsmeade provided a parent or guardian signed a form; the Dursleys did not. Yet, they also have enough magical training to sign up for extra classes. Harry, Ron, and Hermoine enroll in Divination and Care of Magical Creatures, taught by none other than Hagrid. Hermoine also begins the study of Ancient Runes, Arithmancy, and Muggle Studies. Harry and Ron do not understand how anyone, even one as smart as Hermoine, could take that many classes. Some are at the same time as others, which makes it humanly impossible for her to attend two classes at once. The dialogue between Ron and Hermoine involving her class schedule speaks to growing relationship between the two, a relationship which neither is mature enough to recognize. Meanwhile, class work has gotten harder. Professor Snape loathes Harry more than ever, and the new Defense of the Dark Arts professor Lupin is an old friend of Harry鈥檚 father. Hagrid, while the nicest person around and Harry鈥檚 protector, is threatened by the Malfoys yet again, this time after Draco is scratched by a hippogriff named Buckbeak because he refused to pay attention in class.

Welcome back to my re-read of the superb series 鈥淗arry Potter鈥�. 馃鈿★笍My journey this time around is a hybrid of reading the books, listening to a fun (adult) podcast and watching the movies. 鉂わ笍馃摎馃帶馃幀

My favorites are tied in this chapter- between Hermione calling out Trelawney about 鈥減redictions鈥� and Malfoy getting his ass handed to him by Buckbeak.
馃摎Chapter 7: The Boggart in The Wardrobe
Obviously my favorite part is Snape dressed as Neville鈥檚 gran.
馃摎Chapter 8: Flight of the Fat Lady
So much happening in this chapter- but my fav is simply Neville鈥檚 gran sending his Hogsmeade permission slip directly to the school, cause sure enough he misplaced his copy.
馃摎Chapter 9: Grim Defeat
Alas, the whomping willow got its revenge鈥� on Harry鈥檚 broom.
馃摎Chapter 10: The Marauders Map
I love that the Weasley twins entrust Harry with the map.

Next up in our Harry Potter re-read! So excited to finally tackle the illustrated version of this one.

I guess you can tell from my rating that this wasn't my all-time favorite HP installment, but I still thoroughly enjoyed it. I remember thinking that the movie was about a 3/5 star rating for me when I first saw it, but now that I've experienced the novel version, I can see how the ending in the book is so much more detailed and excellent than how they chose to portray the ending in the movie. Obviously I live for any appearance of the Weasley twins, and I was so excited to get to the book that features the marauder's map. "I solemnly swear that I am up to no good!" Another fun read and another step closer to making my way through the series for the first time. I'm really interested to get to The Goblet Of Fire, as it's my favorite movie in the series!

Can I give it 10 stars???
August 4, 2024
JO ROWLING after typing the last sentence for this book:
SAY WHATEVER the fuck you want, this is possibly one of the most ingenious, well crafted, well written, well developed Children's book out there.
This person sat down, and not only put together an universe where children can do magic, away from their parents, while studying at a British boarding school alongside magical creatures, but this motherfucker sat down and genuinely created
鈽� DEMENTORS, energy sucking creatures who guard a prison and feed off of your happiness. And the only way to shield yourself from them is to perform a spell that uses your happiest memory for strength. Also, yeah, chocolate helps too. (as an adult this hits so fucking hard)
鈽� PAINTINGS WHO TALK TO EACH OTHER. Paintings who cover the walls of this magical castle, paintings who have feelings, memories, and communicate with the students. I mean that is not only hilarious, that is so endearing and unique.
鈽� A TIME TURNER. THE FUCKING TIME TURNER. Not that Rowling has invented it herself but the way she used it in this book? Reading Dumbledore say:
You can save more than one innocent life tonight??!!!?!!?!!?
BRO IF THAT SHIT DOESN'T TOUCH YOU, YOU'RE DEAD INSIDE. DEMENTORS WOULD STARVE TO DEATH IF THEY WERE STUCK IN A CELL WITH YOU, YOU ALREADY HAVE NO HAPPINESS LEFT INSIDE YOURSELF.
鈽� SNAPE? THE LEVEL OF COMPLEXITY of Snape's character. In a Children's book?? Really? Do I even need to start talking about Sirius and Buckbeak's arc in this book? OK I THOUGHT SO
鈽� THE NAME OF EVERY SINGLE SPELL
鈽� HOGSMEAD? DIAGONAL ALLEY? HOGWARTS ITSELF?
鈽� THE NAME OF EVERY ROOM, EVERY ITEM? THE MARAUDERS MAP?
鈽� QUIDDITCH? You are going to look at me, sit here and tell me that inventing quidditch from scratch is not the most unbelievable thing? Also, I am mad we got robbed of seeing Cho play Quidditch against Harry on television. Why did no one tell me this bitch was a FEMALE SEEKER FOR RAVENCLAW? That slaps.
And this woman was capable of creating ALL OF THIS AND MUCH MUCH MUCH MORE and still develop all of her characters thoughts, feelings, arcs, emotional baggage? I mean a pet rat here has a more complex arc than all of the "booktok" recommended books' characters I've read about combined.
Anyways, I usually don't cry while reading books. It's nearly impossible. But I did get quite emotional multiple times during this one.
"So you did see your father last night, Harry. . . . You found him inside yourself." 
I, Sirius Black, Harry Potter鈥檚 godfather, hereby give him permission to visit Hogsmeade on weekends. 
Perhaps we should think about dragons at the school entrance. . . .鈥� 鈥淗agrid would like that,鈥�
About Snape: 鈥淔ellow seems quite unbalanced,鈥� said Fudge, staring after him. 鈥淚鈥檇 watch out for him if I were you, Dumbledore.鈥� 鈥淥h, he鈥檚 not unbalanced,鈥� said Dumbledore quietly. 鈥淗e鈥檚 just suffered a severe disappointment.鈥�
The hippogriff took off into the air. . . . He and his rider became smaller and smaller as Harry gazed after them . . . then a cloud drifted across the moon. . . . They were gone.
鈥淪irius is locked in Professor Flitwick鈥檚 office on the seventh floor. Thirteenth window from the right of the West Tower. If all goes well, you will be able to save more than one innocent life tonight." 
Anyway, if you ever want to know what World Building and Character Development in a book is supposed to look like, you just have to read this.
The market is so oversaturated, everyone nowadays think they can write a fantasy book because the internet and KU makes it possible. And this book, THIS CHILDREN'S book, is here to prove to you that no, not everyone can.
Funny, heart wrenching and warming at the same time, creative, unique, well paced, entertaining, imaginative, poignant, artistic, expressive, compelling, engaging...
A fucking world phenomenon, for a damned good reason.
I still have hope that in this mass market oversaturation where only Booktok books are getting deals because their authors have lots of followers, that someone, somewhere, will re-ignite a real passion for literature over their greed for fucking money and we will start seeing real fantasy novels like this one again.
