Customer Reviews

An early harry potter

I enjoyed this book a lot even though the beginning was pretty slow, after that it was a fantasy mystery kind of book with lots of twists and turns. I really liked the adventure and excitment in this book and I would reccomend it to people who enjoy magic and adventure and survival in the woods.
