Harry Potter - Complete Collection by J.K. Rowling

Rowling has, in my opinion, improved on the literary style used by Roald Dahl and similar writers. Characters are more complex and the themes are deeper and interchanged; By looking carefully you will find many of the themes influenced by some strong philosophy. And all of this happening in a highly imaginative and absurd world. Rowling Is my living proof that a world of magic can describe aspects of or own, better than we can do without.

What can I say that hasn't already been said? These are phenomenal reads. I held off from reading Harry Potter because I thought they were nothing but over hyped trash for children. I was very wrong! The first few books are a little on the children's literature side, but they are still great stories that set the overarching plot up well. The later books have a much darker tone and culminate in a great climax. If you think these are just kids books, give them a read, you will be surprised.

Like many other readers, I found the first books less enjoyable, but I believe that is simply due to the fact that they are meant for children, and as Harry and his friends grew, so do the themes, narrative, writing, and conflict. Book 4 is a turning point, the end is brilliant. I think that this series deserves the praise, movies, a theme park, and everything!

I have like 60 books waiting to be read on my bookshelf. Mostly because I keep going back and rereading these for the umpteenth time.
