Quote from the book:  "Harry, your a wizard." this quote may be short however has lots of meanings to it. The reason why I choose this particular quote is because this is how it all started, the whole story about Harry Potter (Main Protagonist) the wizard. It opened doors which led to Harry Potter's wildest dreams. It led to his whole future and happiness, at least that's what he thought at the beginning.

What happened until now: Since I started reading the book many exited things have happened to Harry Potter. First Harry was sent to his absolute hell and misery, to live with the Dursleys in Surrey, England ever since his parents died. A muggle family, who are the only close relatives which Harry Potter knows of, his uncle and aunt. All through his life Harry has been tortured  by his abominable cousin Dudley, put to live in a closet and wasn't given a proper gift in 11 years.Treated like he is not worth anything, like he doesn't belong in this world. However one letter, just one will change his life and lead him to home. The letter is delivered by Rubeus Hagrid, (a giant who is the keeper of the keys and grounds at Hogwarts) it is the invitation to the Hogwarts School of WitchCraft and Wizardry. Knowing he is a wizard just like his parents shocked him since his uncle and aunt never told him about the wizard world and the truth about his parents death purposely to erase that chapter of his life completely. As he finds out more about this school, he finds out more about his parents, and himself as well.  As he walks down the street of Diagon Alley (shopping street in the wizard world) with Hagrid for his school supply's everyone around him is staring, his name is known all over town and he is being greeted by the most random people. As he talks to different people the strangest name keeps on jumping out at him like someone keeps turning the jack in the box. He feels like a whole piece in his puzzle is missing, as if he was berried under ground for 11 years, like he should know who that is. His name is Voldemort (Main Antagonist), or as they call him, the one who must not be named. The more he finds out, the more it frightens him. It also frightens him when Hagrid tells him that Voldemort was the one who murdered his parents. However Harry is still confused why he is famous, why everyone knows his name. Hagrid explains he is known as "the boy who lived" because that night when his parents died, Voldemort couldn't kill him for some mysterious reason, but did transfer some of his power to him. Harry was amazed by that story since he had now clue that he was that important to the wizard world.

This book as an excellent award winning book which has been read by billions of people across the globe. I have never heard or saw one bad comment about this series, so I decided to give it a chance. It is so magnificent, its like it takes you to a new world. I rarely read fantasy books, however this one blew my mind completely. This just shows how I should keep my options open. I love how the book always has something interesting to keep you reading. The amount of detail they give so great, I can create a clear in vivid picture in my mind.

THUMBS UP !!!!
