This book was when the Harry Potter series actually stopped being kids running around going crazy. This book delves into many more things than the first two, and I absolutely loved rereading it. I read it in the span of two days. TWO DAYS! Overall, this book was just amazing. 
 I remembered all of the plot twists, but I loved how all of the plot twists fit together, made sense, and how we learn even more about Harry's parents and what happened before the first book. 
 The characters are lovable, and we see a lot of character development from recurring ones--Hermione is a great example for this. And Lupin and Sirius were both fabulous. I know what's coming for both of them and I'm so sad ;-; (I'm not saying they die...they don't die! Of course they don't!) 
 The beginning is just a little boring but it's definitely an enjoyable book. I enjoyed it more than the first book and just a little more than the second. Highly anticipating rereading Goblet of Fire.
