J Elizabeth Klug (21 KP) rated Harry Potter: A Journey Through Charms and Defence Against the Dark Arts in Books
Dec 14, 2019
A short non-fiction ebook that draws comparisons from the magic written by J.K. Rowling in the Harry Potter series to the historical myths and folklore from which it's based. Invisiability, transforming into a creature, and warding off evil are just a few of the topics you'll find in this book.
I found this to be a fascinating read and would recommend it to any fans of Harry Potter who are interested in Mythology and Folklore.

Expands the Potter universe
In some ways I preferred this to the first film. The story was more interesting and revealed a fair bit more info on certain characters from the Potter films. It's definitely darker in tone with a lot less humour than the first film. If you have knowledge of the other Harry Potter films you're more likely to enjoy it.

This is hands down my favourite Harry Potter book!!
Everything I loved from the first two books continues in this book, the themes of friendship, good and evil and of course the humour.
In this book Harry, Ron and Hermione get up to more mischief, embark on new adventures and even begin new lessons.
One of the great things about this book, is the slight variation in story line. Instead of battling Lord Voldemort at the end of the school year there is a different enemy to defeat.
Obviously fully recommend this book as everyone should read Harry Potter.

Harry Potter
Can be enjoyed by anyone of any age. It does lightly tread on child neglect/abuse. Mostly magic. Little story filled with magic (as it would) and wonder.

General Story arc
I feel like I am growing up and along with him, learning and exploring this world.
the dialog and verbal banter is exceptional in spurts later on in the book.
Could be a next step for Harry Potter fans looking for the next great adventure...
I really enjoyed this one much more than I expected. Harry Potter fans might be looking for this one....
I feel like this might be a Different and yet contain some of the same element that people love about Harry Potter. if Harry Potter had told his own story from his memory. But of course had a much better memory than I have or am capable of. I can't say enough how much little moments in his book are so charming and smart. Yes he makes decisions I wouldn't make, and he does things that I think to myself, of crap he we go.... but isn't that part of the fun? I get to experience someone else's world for a while.

This Illustrated edition is beautiful, and I'm glad I added it to my never-ending Harry Potter book collection. I'm glad that they added the bookmark (at least, there's one in the American edition).
