This is my first time reading Harry Potter in my entirety of existence (yes I'm in my twenties and I've never read Harry Potter - not once), and I'm quite surprised to have enjoyed it as much as I have.
This would probably be a 5 star read for me if I read it at a younger age as it definitely reads as a children's book. I still really liked that element - kind of felt like I was a young 12 year old girl again and it filled me with nostalgic magic and I think that beautifully encompasses what Harry Potter is, whether its your very 1st time reading it or your hundredth time. I loved the characters and the Hogwarts magic that seeped through the pages, plus the reveal ofVoldermort at the end . It kept me intrigued and I could distinctly imagine everything like a young child wandering through Hogwarts myself 🧙🏼♂️
I can't wait to continue the series and eventually watch the movies
