Hello, I am a boy, 13 years old, from the Netherlands. I've read all the books in Dutch and now I'm reading them in English. This beautiful box contains all 7 books, for a very fair...
I love the hp books, so I was planning on purchasing this boxset when I first heard of it, just so I would have brand new copies to show my kids, and them to show their kids over the course of...
glad it is new could have saved money buying used, was not pleased with the box. thought it might be an inexpensive wood photo finish, but came in cardboard. can save $30.00 buy without the box.
The seventh installment of the Harry Potter series left me feeling high and dry at a time I felt I should have been celebrating. It was the end of an era! My defining childhood literature! And yet...
J. K. did it again! This will change the way you look at the series. Voldemort is alive and in the wizarding world. The Death Eaters evil deeds are spreading and threatening the muggle world....
Didn't live up to the standard set by the previous books
Bottom Line: Loaner (unless you have to have it for your collection) I have to say I was disappointed in many things about this book. First and foremost, it didn't grab my attention at...
Overall: -------- 2.5 stars -- The story is weak exposition (for the most part) filling in holes in the plot / milieu that needed to be filled before the conclusion of the series to...

I love all the books. After reading it a couple of times, I have grown to like this book even more. He is angry and sullen, which is different than what we expect. However, He also grows up a bit...
Ever since the fourth book it is possible to see that the writter has been making the series more dark, and sad for the poor Harry Potter, he is a boy who suffered alright, apart from losing his...
If you read my review of HP 1 you'll see that I'd to read these books because a friend lost a wager. I started to read this series and asking my kids' friends how was the book I'll start reading....
"the order of the phenoix is even darker than the last. but still captures the struggles of normal teenagers. the characters are great and interesting. the story is long and complex.

The third book in the Harry Potter series turns a lurid shade of pale as three very important figures are brought into view. Sirius Black escapes from Askaban quickly becoming the wizarding world's...
This book is by far the worst in the series. Not to say that it's a bad book but it's not the best. I really like Sirius and everything about Wormtail was really interesting but this book didn't...
This says library binding, but it is not. Library binding is when the book is actually sewn together for durability. This is a paperback in size and quality with a hard cover that has a bad...

This book is the point where the series went downhill. Out goes the tight plotting and the magical whimsy that made the earlier books so fun, in goes a poorly edited brick of a book that is packed...
It seems that each of the Harry Potter books has it own secondary genre. The first book was an introduction, the second a comedy, the third a dark horror and the forth book - a true...
Torn on how to rate it -- good plot advancement, interesting characters but huge plot hole
Summary: This is the 4th book in the Harry Potter series. It follows the same style, darkening tone, similar formulas as the prior three books -- new mode of transport / new magic device, new...

I read this book back when i was a 13 in middle school and now being 21 i still think it's my number one favorite. J.K. Rowling is one of the best authors of our generation. This a wonderful read...
If you like card board characters, tired old plot, bad writing, this book is for you. Kids, please, there are so many better books out there. And we wonder why the aliens don't want to meet us.
Nothing Spectacular to Merit the Hype About this "Anniversary Edition"
Belatedly I found out that this is not worth buying. Yes, I bought the book because I thought that being touted as the 10th Anniversary Edition, it would be SPECIAL. Like there would be at least a...
I bought this book with the hopes that I would be able to understand it, even with my limited command of the German language (Studied for 4 years in high school), and to my surprise, I was able to...
I ordered this book for the purpose of improving my Spanish. I found this book very helpful, although at times, the book's Spanish translation weren't exactly like the English's. Either way, very...
It's a shame that such a wonderful book was translated so poorly. The translator, Alicia Dellepiane, has a tendency to translate literally. For example, she translated to "have a fit" (referring...
I speak spanish, and my boyfriend thought it would be cute to buy this book for me in spanish. It gave me a headache. The translation is so terrible that I had to put it down after a chapter and...
My item was supposed to be delivered to my dorm room between April 22 and May 7 it is now May 16 and I am no longer at my dorm because class has ended and I have not received my purchase. I would...
Chamber of Secrets has to be the most humorous of the Harry Potter series. The character of Gilderoy Lockhart had me rolling. His gleaming smile, audacious personality and hidden intentions made...
The Chamber of Secrets was good, but not nearly as good as the Sorcerer's Stone. In this sense, I was disappointed. Maybe the bar was set too high with the first book? It felt like almost the...
My son came home with Jim Dale's reading of this story from the school library and we figured, after reading #1 aloud, that #2 might be fun as an audio book. NOT.
Having read all the books in English, I picked this up to see what I could make of it. It is extremely well-edited; it keeps the important plot points and preserves all the flavor of the original...
