Amazing book and amazing series! It was so hard to put down! I always told myself: ''Just ONE more page...'' over and over again when reading at night. If you haven't read Harry Potter yet, you don't know what great littariture is. This series is epic and part of my childhood. It's amazing what J.K Rowling did to our lives <3

Without a doubt my favourite book in the Harry Potter series! We are included in some back story and the foundation is built for the adventure that is yet to come. Fred and George are as entertaining as ever, and there is great character development for Harry, Ron, and Hermoine. Harry starts to become a true participant in the wizarding world, and less of an observer. Remus Lupin and Sirius Black are introduced, two of my all time favourite characters. And we discover just how much fun a time turner can be! :D

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban opens on the night before Harry's thirteenth birthday, when he receives gifts by owl post from his friends at school. The next morning at breakfast, Harry sees on television that a man named Black is on the loose from prison. At this time, Aunt Marge comes to stay with the Dursleys, and she insults Harry's parents numerous times. Harry accidentally causes her to inflate. Harry leaves the Dursley's house and is picked up by the Knight Bus, but only after an alarming sighting of a large, black dog. The Knight Bus drops Harry off at Diagon Alley, where he is greeted by Cornelius Fudge, the Minister of Magic. He rents a room and awaits the start of school. In Diagon Alley, Harry finishes his schoolwork, admires a Firebolt broomstick in the window of a shop, and after some time, finds his friends Ron and Hermione. At a pet shop, Hermione buys a cat named Crookshanks, who chases Scabbers, Ron's aging pet rat. Ron is most displeased. The night before they all head off to Hogwarts, Harry overhears Ron's parents discussing the fact that Sirius Black is after Harry.

"Sirius Black is your godfather!" This quote stuns and enlightens Harry Potter! He no longer feels like an orphan with no one to love. His godfather's presence will have a large impact on him!

Remember, if the time should come when you have to make a choice between what is right, and what is easy, remember what happened to a boy who was good, and kind, and brave, because he strayed across the path of Lord Voldemort.

The mind is not a book, to be opened at will and examined at leisure. Thoughts are not etched on the inside of skulls, to be perused by an invader. The mind is a complex and many-layered thing.

Indifference and neglect often do much more damage than outright dislike …We wizards have mistreated and abused our fellows for too long, and we are now reaping our reward.

Harry, suffering like this proves you are still a man! This pain is part of being human … the fact that you can feel pain like this is your greatest strength.
