Well it seems so geared for children and yet I really love it. 
 I think the reason I lost interest in the beginning is because while this serious seems interesting, The Sorcerer's Stone is probably going to be the least interesting. I did enjoy Harry being introduced to everything wizard and witch but sometimes it seemed a tad uninteresting. 
 From the beginning I realized that the Sorting Hat put you basically were you desired what with Harry's influence over it. Still I did find myself not wanting him in Slytherin. Anyways, of course, I despised Draco Malfoy and while listening I couldn't remember how it ended. I also couldn't remember why Snape was trying to kill Harry during the Quidditch Match. Of course, then I realized it wasn't him but Professor Quirrell which seemed odd with all the cowering he did but it did mean you didn't suspect him. 
 The mirror would have been a neat thing to see and I wouldn't mind having that invisibility cloak from time to time. Also I loved the whole thing about the Dragon at Hagrid's. (I don't think I'm spelling anything right. Someone enlighten me...)
