Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Harry Potter, #1)

How to go about reviewing one of the most genius books in history? Ok, that's a bit of an overreaction, but not for me! How many authors can have a face to face encounter with the most evil being on the planet and a magical train with lovely sweets in the same book? Not to mention evoking the proper emotions for both scenes? Her humor is subtle but often has me laughing out loud when suddenly I have tears in my eyes. Yes, these books DESERVE their fame. What anyone says to deter from that really means nothing to me, because the utter incredibility of these books catches me breathless every time.
