Book Reviews of Harry Potter Paperback Box Set (Books 1-6)
Book Review: Harry Potter in paperback
Summary: 5 Stars
I was really happy to see the Harry Potter books available in paperback and the boxed set is just great! Having read all 6 books previously (more than once)and owning them all in hardbound editions leaves me little more to say about the series besides "These are great books!".
I purchased the paperback set for a couple of reasons:
1)they're lighter and easier to handle for reading in bed.
2)having them will help preserve my hardbound copies.
I was happy with the appearance of the boxed set too and recommend it.
And yes ... I'll probably buy another boxed set (paperback) that includes the 7th and final book in the series. I have grandkids that will love them!
Book Review: Harry Potter: another great series lines my library shelf
Summary: 5 Stars
I have to admit, i was skeptical of Harry potter books from when i heard they were supposed to be childrens's books. I couldn't have been more wrong. This series of books are incredible to read, keep you locked in to the end of the seventh book, and make you want to reread them, as i am doing now.
This series goes into my hall of fame, along with anything Tolkien(i.e., the Lord of the Rings,etc.), Alan Dean Foster's Spellsinger series, Michael Moorcock's The eternal champion series (Elric), Terry Brook's Shannara series, and Stephen R Donaldson's Thomas Covenant series.
A great purchase from a great company that has been good me ever since i've joined. Thanks, [...]
Book Review: Wonderful series, wonderful deal!
Summary: 5 Stars
Six books, 6 dollars each. Can't beat that. And a nice cardboard box to store them in. Great deal Amazon! My daughter has turned me on to the series and I am now on book 4. The stories and writing are very engaging, exciting, scary, and humorous. Much has been written about the series. This is a great way to get the bulk of the books for an inexpensive price. The 7 book set is also available, but unless you are really finicky, buy this 6-book set, and order book seven separately. Will save you some money, at least as of this review date. Of course these are not the more durable hardback books. But if you or you child is reasonably careful, these should last through a few readers...Book Review: Harry Potter Books 1-6
Summary: 5 Stars
The order was filled and delivered promptly. This will be the second time reading through the series. It is easy to read and develops an amazing amount facts about all the characters that grows from book to book. The story takes suprising turns and characters have a depth of personality that grow with every chapter. Ms Rowling has an unique talent for wrapping the similarities we all share in a blanket of magic and mystery. While I look forward to the last book in the series with anticipation to see how things will wrap up I'll feel a sadness, like the day after Christmas, when the magic has passed. However I can always read it again!!!

Book Review: Read them again and again!
Summary: 5 Stars
I technically bought these for my boyfriend for Christmas, since he'd never read any of them before, but lo and behold, I'm sitting here every night reading them again myself. They are so addicting, and by no means meant only for children! Rowling's writing is smart and not condescending towards her readers, which means these books are perfect for all ages.
I chose to buy this set as the paperback version so that when the complete, hardcover 7 book set is released, I hadn't spent TOO much money and can just go out and get the full set again. Amazon had a great price on these books and I'm very pleased with this purchase.
