Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone

It's probably evident I am a huge Harry Potter fan, which I am. I am doing something I told myself I would never do, review Harry Potter. I think these books are absolutely phenomenal, and I believe they have shaped my life in more ways than one. I enjoy the variety of characters with such strong personalities, along with each magical/mystical creature.

For these students being only 11, they endure so much at Hogwarts in their first year. Harry learns his life has been a lie. He is taught important lessons such as, "It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live." He meets two life long best friends, his future wife and his foe. In the end he becomes a hero.

To anyone who has never read these books, DROP EVERYTHING NOW AND DO SO! You will fall in love with the characters, creatures, Quidditch, Hogwarts, and so many other things. You will love to hate Malfoy and Snape. You will wish you had a deluminator, and an invisible cloak. In the end, you will learn that magic never dies. :)
