Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

After reading this book for the at least the fourth time I can confidently say that Rowling's writing style never gets old. Reading this as a little girl or a 21 year old woman I can still find passages that make me smile and remind me over and over why I love the Harry Potter series so much.

The movies for the HP series have overall done the author and her writing justice. If I were to rank all seven of the films in quality and allegiance to Rowling's writing I would personally put Prisoner of Azkaban at the bottom of the list. 

HOWEVER, before you let the movie cloud your judgement of the novel please, please, PLEASE read the book. Rowling's storyline is fantastic and this book creates storylines and relationships that are crucial to the overall plot of the series.

  1. Hello, my name is Yuki! I'm from Singapore and recently started blogging too! I saw your post on goodreads and came to visit your website! I think your reviews are great! I love how they are short and sweet! I can't write a review without rambling about the book...
    One thing though, you can consider including a summary of the book just to give your readers and idea of what the book is about so they can better relate to your reviews! Just a suggestion!

    Nice to meet you by the way! Check out my blog too if you'd like! :)

  3. I'm glad you like it! I think different bloggers has their way of writing!! I'm the kind that starts going on and on and sometimes i hesitate before publishing the post because i feel that it might be too much! For me i prefer reading short and sweet posts, like yours!! But i can't seem to convey my thoughts in a more concise manner! I guess getting a little bit personal might also be a way of blogging? :D

    Anyway, thanks for dropping by my blog too! I've added you to my reading list! Look forward to your updates :)

  4. Hi! I’m Caroline from Just Another Bookish Blog! C:
    Being a new blogger isn’t easy - it’s pretty hard to find what makes your blog ‘you’. But that’s what’s best to do - write reviews in a way that you would like to read them, and in such a way that feels natural to you :)
    Also, make sure to give many following options! :D (Bloglovin’ is a huge one that a lot of people will subscribe to your blog through :) )
    Finally, talk to other bloggers! Talking and commenting really helped me out quite a bit. Oh and participating in memes never hurts either (my faves are Top Ten Tuesday and Feature & Follow Friday)

    But so far, it’s looking great! I like how your reviews are nice and short! As Yuki said, I can also have a tendency of rambling on for quite a bit! ^-^

    Hope I helped!

  5. I love Harry Potter, perhaps too much, and I think I see what you mean when you say the PoA movie didn't do the book justice, but I haven't really thought about ranking the movies!

    1. Hi Hannah! I have an unhealthy obsession with Harry Potter also. I think the only reason why I ranked them is because I also love to make lists of things lol.
      Thanks for checking out my blog, and follow if you like what you see. :)
