A great book. I have read many great fantasy novels but this one definitely is among the best I’ve read. Rowling incorporates many diverse characters into this story while also having the skill of maintaining a vivid image of each throughout. I would recommend this book to anyone.

372 pages (I read up to page 30)                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 __________________________________________________

I have not finished but so far it is a powerful story. I would recommend starting it.

I also read parts of other books but I discontinued reading them near the beginning of each. (altogether I read ~ 40 pages a day)
