Lily
Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban is an amazing book! With a climax that lasts over one fourth of the book, and cool new characters like Prof. Lupin and Sirius Black. The action is incredible. Probably the best thing in the book is all the things you find out about Harry and his past. Without a doubt, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban is the best book by J.K. Rowling (so far).


Loren
So far, I think that this book is great! I'm on chapter 15.The first chapter seems real and really boring, but actually it's Harry's dream! The second chapter gets a little more exciting. If you're not reading this book already, you should!


Melissa
I really enjoyed the Harry Potter books. The characters are marvelous and the humor is great...(edited to avoid giving away key plot details).... I don't know about you but I was crying so much that I had to stop reading( me and my mom read the books out loud to each other) and let my mom read a page so I cool down!! I saw a interview with Rowling and a reporter from "Hot Type" on the 15th of July 2000 and she said that in one of the next 3 books Harry uses a "Time Turner" the thing Hermonie uses in book 3) and goes back in time.........(edited to avoid giving away key plot details)

Harry Potter is the absolute greatest book of all time! I've been reading since birth because my mom's a librarian and this series is the most sensational, thrilling, mysterious and so many more words than I could ever express. I read the 4th book in one day! I know you viewers might think different but I am the absolute #1 fan!


Jeannie
WOW, I mean, what else is there to say about this book?? It's amazing! I was a Potter fan after the first book, and don't get me wrong, I loved them all, but this one had by far the most twists, and surprises. As soon as you think you have the book all figured out, something happens and your theory starts to change. For all the people who haven't already read it, I won't give away the ending, but I will say that I think the 5th book will be most interesting due to unexpected events in this one!!


Chris
I found the book to be very enlightening and a page turner, I really enjoyed this book and would recommend it to people of all ages. this was excitement from chapter to chapter. You must Read this book.


Susan
THIS BOOK IS THE BEST. All the books are great. I am incredibly happy that you wrote this, J.K. Rowling! You totally rule!!! I started reading the first one to my younger sisters for a bedtime story. They're enjoying it! YOU TOTALLY RULE, MS. ROWLING! Can't wait till the next one comes. If anyone insults the book, don't listen to them, it's crap!


Ashley
This book is fantastic! I never picked up any of the Harry Potter Books until this week, on a whim. I read all the newspaper articles about the book, and being a somewhat jaded 22-year-old, I attributed all the hype to a skillfull PR rep. Not so! I finished all four books in four days! I have a full time job, so I stayed up all night three nights in a row to read the books, and finally called in sick the fourth day to finish the last book. I don't remember the last time I enjoyed a book so much! Thank you, thank you, Ms. Rowling!
