Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone: Illustrated [Kindle in Motion]: The Illustrated Edition

Sorry my rose colored nostalgia glasses make it impossible to rate this (whole series) critically. My identity was, and still kinda is, far too connected lol

Reread: 1/23/17Returning to the Harry Potter world is always magical, but since I always sputter out on a read during books 3 or 4,it was honestly a treat to reread OotP as I haven't read it cover to cover since it's release. Returning to this phase of Harry's life as an adult was fascinating. Know what was to come made all the stupid mistakes everyone made so much more painful to read, but all of the characters' motivations made sense too. Ugh. Suffice it to say, I really really loved this reread, but found the second half hard to read as Trump was officially inaugurate as US president and too many parallels were easy to draw between Umbridge and the corrupt government with Trump and his emerging administration.

This reread has finally gotten far enough from the rose-tinted glasses to see how holey and underdeveloped the plot is.

Dumbledore es superior, de verdad los momentos que ha tenido en este libro me han encantado.

Bueno, antes que nada, esto es una relectura y obviamente tengo que decir que no me arrepiento. Decidí volver a leerlo porque lo leí como a los 15-16 años y no me recuerdo de la mayoría de las cosas.Rowling escribe maravillosamente bien, no de por algo estos son unos libros muy reconocidos. Me encanta la inocencia de Harry, lo tierno de Hagrid y lo random de Dumbledore (?), y puedo confirmar que tengo ese amor-odio con Snape.Obviamente estos libros son quien quiere, tengas 21 años o 15, siempre te van a causar esa sensación de adentrarte de nuevo a tan maravilloso mundo.

Just pure fun 

[Spoiler Free Review]The first book in the series and what a great introduction it is. It's not my favourite, but it does hold a special place in my heart and you can't deny how deeply iconic it is. What a unique and interesting world, thank you JK Rowling for giving children and adults alike some magic in their everyday lives.

[Spoiler Free Review]It's still a great book, but I take away two stars because I honestly can't remember what the hell happened in this book xD This book was Harry at his most insufferable too, maybe that's why my brain is protecting me. To be fair, Harry has every right to be this way, he is greatly traumatized and I feel for him. I still cringe at him and Cho though.

Bardzo dobrze mi się czytało Harrego Pottera
