WOW WOW WOW. I've read this years ago, but I think rereading it now is even better.

The Sorcerer's Stone is a fun read—filled with just the right amount of comical dialogue, philosophical quotes, adventure, and magic!

The minute I start reading, I couldn't stop. The characters were so interesting! I loved seeing Harry's sass. I loved Ron and all his energy. I loved seeing Hermione fuss over homeworks and exams. I also loved how I got to see the development of their friendships! The writing, of course, was brilliant. I kept getting giddy and teary-eyed whenever I come across quote that I love. Although, I did find it a bit lacking when it comes to the author's descriptions of the situations. I would have liked more of it. The plot was brilliant, too, of course. The author truly has a way of inserting little details that actually has more significance than what the reader would have thought. I applaud her so much for that. It definitely makes the whole book—the whole story—exciting!

What a great start to my 2019! 4.5 stars for book one!
