First time for everything. I can see why this series is so loved. Well deserving of all the stars. The movie did a good job of following the book, but as most things go the book just added so much. Magical.

I am finally doing a reread of the Harry Potter books after years of telling myself I needed to. I think I found myself a little concerned that it wouldn't quite be the same after so much time.

The magic is still definitely alive. Dipping my toes back into Rowling's wonderful world is just as exciting as it was all those years ago.

I read this one, but I think I am going to be listening to the others, read by the always-brilliant Stephen Fry! Next up, Chamber of Secrets! ...more

This is my first time reading this book again in over 14 years!!!! It was so great to read the journey of Harry’s first year and to refresh all the amazing details. All the questions you raise while watching the movie are answered by the book alone. It will forever go down as a classic! It gave you the perfect taste of what to have expected for the rest of the series.
