Book #7 - Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

Am slowly catching back up to [livejournal.com profile] read_hp.

PoA is one of my favorite books in the series. It was the first - and remains the only - book I've ever read straight through in a single day. My friend Stephanie couldn't believe it when I gave her copy back to her at dinner, when she'd just loaned it to me at breakfast. I love the backstory of the Marauders and Snape, and this book is the first one that feels like we're really getting started on the overarching plot. Things are put into motion in PoA, people and things introduced, that are still resonating as of the sixth book, which hasn't been true for the first two books (which is probably why I don't like them as much).

Plus I'm madly in love with Remus Lupin.

Title: Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

Hee! I've been listening to my audio books of the HP books and I've just started PoA the other day myself. I don't know that I have a favorite book, but it's definitely my favorite of the movies so far. It was so brilliant and gorgeous as far as the cinematography was concerned. This was the movie that grew up the kids, etc. for me.
