Advantages: humorous, good suspense, enjoyable characters and story Disadvantages: reading it as an adult may feel different than how you felt reading it as a child
The first book of the HarryPotter series, I must confess, hooked me. The book is a combination of fantasy, mystery, and the boarding school stories like the Malory Towers series by Enid Blyton.
There is always something that makes each character stands out: Hermione's bushy hair, Ron's freckled face, Dumbledore's long and hooked nose, Snape's greasy hair, and of course - Harry's scar. These little things make the characters come alive for me. Of course Snape's hair is greasy, because there's something so innately unlikeable about him, but is he really as terrible as he looks?

When I was bought this as a christmas present several years back, I initially thought it was purely a childs book but felt obliged to read it anyway. I was hooked - literally, unable to put it down! I was very surprised to find a story primarily aimed for children, could completely and utterly capture my imagination.
This is the first instalment of seven in the HarryPotter series and I would strongly recommend reading the books in succession.
The story is about a boy called Harry, growing up in the care of his not-so-nice aunt and uncle, because his parents were killed when he was just a year old. When Harry turns 11, he learns that he is actually a wizard and has been invited to attend Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry where he pals up with Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger.
