Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone - Book Review

Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone is a novel that everyone ever has read. It is written by J.K. Rowling. It launched the Harry Potter series. Do I really need to explain the plot? NO!!!

This book starts off slow but manages to remain interesting in a innocent non violent kind of way. The writing is simple but it makes it easier and faster to read. I think this book can be read in about 7-9 hours depending on your reading abilities.

The characters in this book are very well developed for the most part, I think Hermione's character had a sudden and abrupt change and it took me out for a little bit, but for younger readers they probably won't notice or even care.

The one flaw I have with this book is that it is a little childish. This is however, a small flaw as it is Harry's first year at Hogwarts but that definitely does not excuse how easy it is for Harry, Ron and Hermione to get away with things. It made more sense in the later books but as for now it does seem a little weird.

Overall Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone is a great children's book
