Having read the first 6 books in less than a span of 6 months; I had to wait a little more than a year for the release of Deathly Hallows. This did diminish some of my interest but I kept it alive and plunged readily into the world of Harry Potter once again. I did not stay there long. When I reache...
I, too, am part of the "Harry Potter generation". I pretty much grew up with Harry Potter, and the first book is what really got me into reading in general.I remember when I first heard the name.

And the Black ...
I think Rowling is a wonderful storyteller. I may or may not agree or wish for another choice but overall she tells a good story. The style in which the story is told is something else entirely for me. I don't read Rowling for her writing style. I read Stein for that or Dos Passos. There are things ...
Obviously, I've read, rated and reviewed these books independently; I'll post links to all 7 of my reviews below, but for consistency's sake and for any potential readers looking up the box set instead of the individual books, I figured I ought to add this version to my shelf as well.The Harry Potte...
