leigh9024's review: "The Harry Potter series has been read by all ages by all kinds of people, but even the most experience literary readers can enjoy Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. This is the first book of seven and the journey of the wizard Harry Potter begins to unfold. It's amazi...

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Book 1) by J.K. Rowling [reviewed by ksmitherman04]

07 Dec 2007 04:05:38 PST

ksmitherman04's review: "I almost made it through college without picking up a Harry Potter book. But I finally did. I am sad that I did not start getting to know Harry earlier. The story is witty, engaging, and magical, and it addresses good versus evil."

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets by J.K. Rowling [reviewed by BridgetteHarmon]

02 Dec 2007 17:25:54 PST

BridgetteHarmon's review: "I refused to read Harry Potter for several years on the grounds that it was non-literary pop fiction fluff with little or no moral grounding. This summer, however, my fiance encouraged me to read the first Harry Potter novel, and I actually enjoyed it. I still th...

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (Book 5) by J.K. Rowling, Jim Dale [reviewed by jopearson56]

24 Nov 2007 16:57:55 PST

jopearson56's review: "I continue listening to the series straight through. After the disappointing Goblet of Fire, the series takes an upturn with Order of the Phoenix. It's really a great series to listen to all in order without years between books, though -- I marvel at Rowling's abili...

Opinion: Rowling dispels Christian critics

Written by dpulliam
Disclaimer: I’ve never cracked one of the Potter books or watched more than a few minutes of the movies, so take this review of the recent splurge of news on the Christian message contained in Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows with a grain of salt. I have been fascinated by the news coverag...

Audio Book Review: Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows by By J.K. Rowling

30 Jul 2007 22:34:47 PDT

Written by T. Michael Testi
When we get to Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows, we find that Dumbledore has left each of them -- Harry, Ron, and Hermione -- items in his will, but the items make no sense and all seem pretty worthless on the face of it. We also know that Harry has been left a task by Dumbledore and he is only al...

Book Review: Harry Potter and the Deathy Hallows by J.K. Rowling

28 Jul 2007 15:22:52 PDT

Written by Bob Milne
Overall, this was the most mature of all the Harry Potter novels. Rowling has clearly taken advantage of his now older fanbase to raise the level of drama in her writing. While Harry himself may not be dead, the story saw the death of nearly a dozen recurring characters - and I think that's wher...

Book Review: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by J. K. Rowling

22 Jul 2007 01:47:12 PDT

Written by Chris Holmes
So it has come to this. After ten years and seven novels the magical saga of Harry Potter has finally reached its conclusion. The countdowns are over, the hype begins to subside, and the biggest question surrounding J. K. Rowling's Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (besides whether Severu...

Book Review: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by J. K. Rowling

21 Jul 2007 21:04:20 PDT

Written by Natalie Bennett
J.K. Rowling claims to have mapped out all of the events of the seven Harry Potter books before she began writing the first, when she was a poor single mother camped out in an Edinburgh cafe. So she'd say, I guess, that the spectacular, distinctly cinematic set-piece ending of Harry Potter and...

Book Review: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by J. K. Rowling

21 Jul 2007 12:44:57 PDT

Written by Marty Dodge
Like everyone else who has the smallest smidgen of enjoyment of Harry Potter I was looking forward to reading the last of the series (allegedly). In fact, I received Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows at noon today and promptly sat down and read it cover to cover in one sitting. This 600-pag...

Book Review: Enid Blyton - The Biography by Barbara Stoney

07 Jul 2007 22:44:41 PDT

Written by James Carson
Like Harry Potter in our own times, Noddy became an unlikely hate figure for those who took it upon themselves to be the guardians of children's development. Some librarians removed the books from their shelves, prompting the Daily Mail to defend Enid in suitably Blytonesque style:
