Harry Potter

This had been the greatest, most awesome book ever made in the history of mankind! I don’t think anybody doesn’t know about this. J.K. Rowling is the best author there is! Whoa! I absolutely and undoubtedly LOVE IT!!!

Harry Potter is a series of seven fantasy novels written by the British author J. K. Rowling. The books chronicle the adventures of a wizard, Harry Potter and his friends Ronald Weasley and Hermione Granger, all of whom are students at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. The main story arc concerns Harry's quest to overcome the Dark wizard Lord Voldemort, whose aims are to become immortal, to conquer the wizarding world, subjugate non-magical people, and destroy all those who stand in his way, especially Harry Potter.

Why do I love it? It’s because I LOVE MAGIC! I sometimes think that somewhere out there, is a magical world full of witches and wizards. Maybe even right behind us! Just kidding…

Anyways, the Harry Potter Series has its own movie series. Cool, right? I mean every book is converted to a movie which is portrayed by the same actors throughout the series. Get it? 

Anyway, the story goes like this…

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone
Harry Potter, a neglected boy living with his indifferent relatives after the death of his parents, discovers on his tenth birthday that he is a wizard, and a famous one at that. Harry is told that his parents died at the hand of the dark wizard, Lord Voldemort, when Harry was a baby, and that he, Harry, is the only person ever to have survived a killing curse, a curse that left him with a lightning bolt scar on his forehead.
New to the world of wizards, Harry begins his magical education at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Aided by Hagrid, the Hogwarts groundskeeper, and his schoolmates Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger, Harry will cross paths with Voldemort again, battle a troll, outwit a three headed dog, and discover the true value of friendship.

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets
Harry is back for his second year at Hogwarts amid mysterious doings involving a hidden chamber somewhere in the castle that is inhabited by a monster intent on killing students who aren't pureblood wizards. With the help of his friends and an old diary, Harry must find the chamber, defeat a surprising enemy, and save the life of Ron's sister. Along the way, he's helped and hindered by Dobby, the house elf, and moaning Myrtle, a morose ghost.

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban
Harry returns to school for his third year amid rumors that escaped mass murderer Sirius Black is out to kill him. Surrounded by dementors, hooded guards from the wizard prison, Azkaban, Hogwarts has never seemed so bleak. While trying to avoid the chilling effects of the dementors, Harry sets out to discover the truth about the night his parents died. With the help of his defense against the dark arts teacher, Remus Lupin, and his friends, Harry unravels a twisted tale of violence and betrayal, but will he be clever and quick enough to save Sirius from the dementor's kiss? Only time will tell.

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire
The fourth installment of the Harry Potter series finds Harry excited about the upcoming triwizard tournament being held at Hogwarts. Champions from three of the most famous wizarding schools will compete for a fortune in prize money. Harry is too young to enter, but discovers on the day the champions are selected that his name has been entered anyway, and with the aid of some powerful magic, he's selected to participate. While Harry battles dragons, merpeople and giant spiders in the tournament, he must also discover who has put him in jeopardy and why.

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
Reeling from the death of his fellow triwizard tournament champion, Cedric Diggory, at the hands of Voldemort, Harry must come to terms with loss and isolation in the fifth installment of the series. We see a darker, more frustrated Harry who is mistrusted by a wizarding community reluctant to accept his word that Voldemort is back.
Harry takes on the role of unofficial defense against dark arts teacher when Dolores Umbridge, a Ministry of Magic appointee to the post of Hogwarts High Inquisitor, forbids the students to use defensive magic. While secretly teaching fellow students spells, Harry must learn occlumency, the ability to shut out the thoughts of others, to protect himself from Voldemort's powerful mind. What is the special weapon Voldemort seeks at the Ministry of Magic? Should Harry block Voldemort's thoughts and emotions or try to use them to discover the secret?

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
Harry Potter and Hogwarts headmaster, Albus Dumbledore, must try to uncover Lord Voldemort's past. A prophecy foretells that Harry and Voldemort will confront one another and only one will survive. In this, the sixth installment of the Harry Potter series, Dumbledore takes Harry on a number of journeys to prepare him for the coming confrontation. Their goal is to discover the secret of Voldemort's power over death and find the key to making him mortal and vulnerable.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows
On the death of Albus Dumbledore, the Hogwarts headmaster, Harry, Ron and Hermione realize that they must begin their quest to destroy the objects in which Voldemort has secreted his soul. They also discover that there are three mystical objects of power that may help them, the deathly hallows. With time running out, Harry must decide which is more important, following Dumbledore's instructions or seeking power on his own. In the last book of the series, Harry will finally come of age and take his rightful place in the wizarding world, a world he will do anything to protect.
