Really well done!
As much as I would hate to admit it, Rowling did an amazing job, and it really felt like I was in Hogwarts with Harry!

About the book Harry Potter and the philosopher's stone.
When you open a book you totally forget about your 'real' life. You are not in your bedroom anymore, you are on a Nimbus 2000, you are putting the sorter hat on your head, defeating the death eaters, hugging Ron, best friend of Hermoine, love interest of Ginny and you are at Hogwarts, the school of witch craft and wizardry.

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stong
This is my favorite book. I have read it 19 times. I never read books again. This book, however, just keeps me intrigued. Every time I read it I discover new details.
