Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban by Alex P.

 




SPOILER WARNING

Summary:

This book, like most of the Harry Potter books, starts over the summer with his aunt and uncle who want nothing to do with him. As he is kicked out of the house for using magic and blowing up his other aunt he is informed that there is a killer that has escaped from the most secure magical prison in the world, Azkaban. Sirius Black (The Killer), was found guilty to have led Voldemort, (The Evil Wizard) to Harry’s Parents, to find them and kill them. When Harry is at school, he learns more about Sirius Black, but he hears something that makes him enraged and he wants to go looking for him. Later on in the book, he finds Sirius Black and learns that Sirius was framed and it was Peter Pettigrew, a wizard thought to be dead who was the cause for the death of Lily and James Potter. Sirius then goes into hiding, as he is still assumed to be guilty by the wizarding world. 


Reflection:

This is one of my favorite books and I have read it a couple of times. It has a great plot, and is very engaging for the reader. It shows the importance of friendship, and it provides a strong message about trust, due to the fact that the Potters put their trust in Peter Pettigrew who betrayed them. I don’t have many disclaimers about this book as I believe that it is more entertaining than it is informative. I would recommend this book to anybody who has not read it, along with the rest of the Harry Potters series.

    I really enjoyed the twist. Although the time travel was a bit confusing. Good review. I agree with a lot that you said.

    I also found the time travel part slightly confusing, but I still enjoyed the book and the whole series.

    I have never read the books, but have enjoyed the movies. Have you watched the movie too? If so which one do you like better? I have heard that the books are more detailed than the movies.

    I have read the series multiple times, and I never understood the time travel part, but I kind of forgot about this book because it wasn't one of my favorite books of the series. Nice Review

Reviewing Crying in H Mart by Michelle Zauner

Image
After reading Emmie's review of Crying in H Mart, I was really intrigued and wanted to read the book for myself. To me, it was the perfect combination of a sad story and connection to the popular Korean market that I loved called H Mart. Emmie was certainly correct, this book was truly so well written and has easily placed in my top 3 books. "For 엄마," Zauner starts the book with "For Mom," which is such a great way to start the memoir. She walks the readers through her and her mom's relationship from high school all the way until college and how they didn't maintain a great relationship with each other. Describing all the times she felt like she didn't feel like she belonged anywhere due to her Korean and Caucasian identity. Before Zauner received the devastating news of her mother's terminal pancreatic cancer, she was distant from her family but that quickly changed. After hearing the news, Zauner returned to her family in Oregon to spend time

Diary of a Tokyo Teen by Christine Mari Inzer

       Diary of a Tokyo teen is Christine’s illustrated guide to her trip to Japan as a 16 year old Japanese-American. As she says in the book, her mom is Japanese and her dad is American and she has lived in America for almost her whole life. She however at first lived in Japan and then moved when I believe she was around 6. She talks about the differences between when she lived there and when she returned years later, and I find that really interesting to see the similarities and differences between a place you've been to and how it's changed since you left.      She describes all the places she went providing some pictures as well as her own drawings, the people she saw, and the crazy adventures she went on. Each page is about something fun, interesting, and different. W hether it be ramen, maid cafes, or chasing down a geisha, they show many random fun things to see and do if you were to ever go to Japan. They also provide really interesting facts about Japanese culture a

Mailboat Ⅰ The End of the Pier by: Danielle Lincoln Hanna

Here it is, the long awaited review of the first Mailboat book: Mailboat Ⅰ The End of the Pier. After first discovering this book in the recommended section of a Lake Geneva magazine, I took full interest in this suspense novel. Mailboat takes place in Geneva Lake, Wisconsin (also known as Lake Geneva, but Lake Geneva is one of the cities on the lake aside from Fontana and Williams Bay) a place that I have a lot of special memories tied to because a lot of my family lives there. Mailboat is about a girl named Bailey who works on the mailboat. But when delivering the mail one day, she misses the boat and lands in the water, only to find a dead body tied to the pier. Bailey along with police officials and the captain of the mailboat Tommy get tied up in the mystery as they try to figure out the identity of the body, and who the murderer was. Before reading you should know two things. The first is that each chapter is from the perspective of a different character. Because of this, it can
