Das inoffizielle Harry-Potter-Buch der Verwünschungen: 101 Möglichkeiten, dich gegen fiese Slytherins zu wehren

by Birdy Jones, Laura J. Moss

Fieslinge, macht euch auf etwas gefasst – ihr sollt nie wieder unbescholten davonkommen! Nicht nur an Muggel-Schulen, sondern auch in Hogwarts treiben Fieslinge ihr Unwesen. Slytherin bringt die Übelsten dieser Sorte hervor – vor allem den schrecklichen Du-weißt-schon-wen –, doch auch in den anderen Häusern sind sie zu finden. In Ravenclaw stößt man immer wieder auf den feindseligen Typus des Klugscheißers, und auch ein paar Gryffindors nutzen ihren Mumm für gemeine Zwecke. Selbst Hufflepuff bringt gelegentlich eine nicht ganz so gut gesinnte Hexe hervor, gegen die man sich verteidigen muss. In diesem Buch findest du die 101 schlagfertigsten Verwünschungen aus der magischen Harry-Potter-Welt, die sich kinderleicht in der Muggel-Welt anwenden lassen. Wenn dich das nächste Mal ein brutaler Typ wie Malfoy nicht in Frieden lässt, setz dich mit einem »Du bist schlimmer als alle sieben Horkruxe zusammen« zur Wehr. Oder wappne dich mit einem »Du bist ungefähr so schlau, wie Dudley schlank ist«, wenn dir ein Besserwisser das Leben schwer macht. Jetzt bist du an der Reihe, deine Widersacher sprachlos zurückzulassen.

I need.

[Geoffrey Wakeling · Rating 5 out of 5]

This book truly is a must for any Harry Potter fans....so much so that I'm waiting for it in paperback (please) so I can buy it as a gift for various family members.

Harry Potter Insults Handbook is ideal if, like me, you find it hard to sit down for one long sitting. I don't get a lot of time to read, but this little handbook is perfect for a quick Harry Potter pick-me-up. There are some awesome insults and you're drawn back into the magical wizarding world immediately. I'm still waiting for my Hogwarts letter, but when it comes I'm not well armed with plenty of Slytherin insults! :)

This book is hilarious! But you must be a Harry Potter fan in order to get all of the jokes. Great, funny, and well written!

This is stupid humor for Potter enthusiasts. I read most it out loud to various Potter-fan family members. Good clean fun. Lame and funny at the same time.

Awesome awesome AWESOME

I never have been bullied, but if I ever do, ill have loads of comebacks-whether they understand them or not-when I need them. This book is perfect for people getting bullied or for showing your siblings who's boss! $3? Worth it!!!

Rate Procedure:

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - I loved the book so much I would reread it again and would recommend to a friend.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - Thoroughly enjoyed the book, could not put it down, would recommend to a friend, but do not need to read again.
⭐️⭐️⭐️ - Probably a good book that I enjoyed but there was something about it I did not love (e.g. The writing style, the POV, etc.). I would only recommend to a friend if it was their "type" of book.
⭐️⭐️ - A book I have below average feelings for and it would not come with a recommendation from me but I would mention it in conversation if related to the book topic at issue.
⭐️ - I finished the book but I hated every second of it.

I loved the concept that this book can be used for kids that are being bullied today. It makes it easier for them to understand and accept when it is put in a fantasy world context such as Harry Potter. At first I thought a lot of the insults were very abrupt but then again children need to be able to stand up for themselves. I loved that on one of the pages it mentioned not to snitch on other kids because it can lead to retaliation but instead it suggested saying something back and standing up for themselves. I really appreciated this especially because bullying is becoming more and more prevalent now a days.

OMG sooo funny!!!!!

[Kimberly Herrin · Rating 4 out of 5]

This was a cute book and actually made me laugh. If you like Harry Potter this is for you.

[Shir · Rating 4 out of 5]

This book is hilarious.

[Sarah · Rating 3 out of 5]

A perfectly fun, 30-minute read. It definitely feels unofficial throughout, but as someone who bought both of Mugglenet's books, that's not necessarily a bad thing. It's funny (even if a bit mean), but it lets readers spend a bit more time in JKR's magical world and gives them an opportunity to imagine delivering a zinger at a bully like Malfoy.

[Rachael · Rating 5 out of 5]

I absolutely loved this book and have used and shared these insults with friends. There is an insult for everyone, and is enjoyed by those who don't love Harry Potter as much as me! Hufflepuff forever!

[Kirsty Stanley · Rating 3 out of 5]

3.5 stars - I'm such a Hufflepuff - thought some of these were too mean rather than clever. A few good ones in there.

[Ellie · Rating 3 out of 5]

Cute

It was a fun quick read. Some insults were funny. Not bad but I wouldn't recommend buying it. Just borrow from a pal

[S.M.S · Rating 5 out of 5]

I recommend this book for someone who was bullied is mature enough to not copy the insults, but understand the theme.

[Elise · Rating 4 out of 5]

This was seriously a fun book! And... some of those insults were savage! 😂 It’s a quick and fun read for Harry Potter fans. I’m thinking I’ll be adding these insults into my life now.

[Siobhan (tigress5cubs) · Rating 4 out of 5]

Some funny.

Some stupid.

[Ayah Istambouli · Rating 3 out of 5]

Cute Harry Potter Dad jokes

[Megan Farve · Rating 2 out of 5]

This book was cute, but it wasn’t worth the read to me. Obviously I think a younger audience would enjoy it regardless, but I think I as an adult would have enjoyed it more had there been more content.

[Carla · Rating 4 out of 5]

this is what happens when bored people have access to the internet: they end up buying this book. I did have a good chuckle or two but maybe I'm already to old for some of these. Still fun if you're a Harry Potter fan

[Danielle Becker · Rating 5 out of 5]

Hilarious!!

I loved this book!!! It is so funny and some insults would work with muggle school bullies! You should definitely get this book!!!

[Clare · Rating 4 out of 5]

Quite humorous :)

[Brenna · Rating 4 out of 5]

Cute

This book is fairly short and cute. The comebacks are mostly juvenile - but funny for for most HP fans.

[Sovady Bora · Rating 5 out of 5]

a quick hilarious read lol

[Alicia Weaver · Rating 3 out of 5]

A cute little read full of Harry Potter related insults. My favorites: even Dobby wouldn't touch your socks. You're so ugly even a dementor wouldn't kiss you.

[Shay Michaels · Rating 5 out of 5]

Awesome

This is hilarious. I am so going to use these in Harry Potter club or in some sort of skit.
