Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban by J.K. Rowling
5.0
Just when you thought it couldn't get better, it does.
Prisoner of Azkaban IS AMAZING. AMAZING. From the plot, to the characters, to the writing, and to the amazing world-building! I feel like world-building just keeps getting better and better and it consumes you AAAAAHHHH.
I love how, in the first few parts of the book, it's just all about Harry, Ron, and Hermione trying to go to class and pass, and play Quidditch and stuff. But even though this might seem boring, it was all so interesting. I couldn't help but pay attention to Quidditch, I couldn't help but marvel about the education system at Hogwarts, I couldn't help but wonder about all the other amazing creatures and spells we don't know about. It's all so good. The world-building is amazing and it just hooks you in. I really applaud the author for this.
Also, I can't help but notice that friendship was such a major theme and element in this book. From Harry, Ron, and Hermione, to the Marauders all those years ago. This book showed not only the power and beauty of friendship, but also its flaws. I absolutely loved it!
This is by far my favorite (reread), but I still have four books to go, and I know those will be filled with more plot, and action, and drama. I can't wait!
