Why the Harry Potter Series Is a Must Read

There are many books and book series out there and not all will appeal to everyone, but I believe the Harry Potter series comes the closest to perfection. The series has countless words of wisdom and lessons, as well as action and entertainment. With a suspenseful plot and excellent use of descriptive language, each book in the series will surely keep you on the edge of your seat. 

Harry Potter is a magnificent series because it balances the lessons it teaches the reader with action and suspense. One of the most notable lessons is to not discriminate against people different from you. Throughout the series, Hermione was discriminated against for being muggle-born (someone with non-magical parents), and it made her feel hurt. This lesson teaches us to not discriminate, as it makes people feel bad about themselves. Another lesson we learn is to not judge people before you get to know them. Harry hated Professor Snape because Professor Snape would always criticize Harry. However, in the end, it turned out that Professor Snape was always on Harry’s side. 

The writing in Harry Potter is also extremely descriptive, painting an immaculate picture in the minds of each reader. When I read the series, it felt so real that I was almost stressed out for the characters and empathized with their feelings.

The writing conveyed the feelings of each character and the setting of every event while remaining concise and not boring the reader with unnecessary details. The series also contains an enchanting atmosphere that makes readers feel like they are part of the story. The detailed descriptions of the magical world of Hogwarts, Diagon Alley, and the Forbidden Forest draw readers further into the narrative and allow them to experience the wonders of the wizarding world. 

The Harry Potter series is filled with exciting plotlines and captivating characters. Each book introduces new characters, creatures, and magical powers that draw the reader further into the fantastical world of the wizarding realm. The books also contain complex themes of loyalty, friendship, and courage, allowing readers to relate to the characters and their struggles. From the hardworking and determined Hermione Granger to the brave and loyal Ron Weasley, the characters in the Harry Potter series provide an inspiring example of how to overcome adversity and come out on top. 

Finally, reading the Harry Potter series provides readers with an escape from their own lives and a chance to explore a world of adventure and magic. The books provide a sense of comfort and familiarity for readers, as they can immerse themselves in the world of Harry Potter and forget their worries and troubles. 

In conclusion, the Harry Potter series is an absolute must-read. The captivating plotlines and characters, enchanting atmosphere, and ability to provide an escape from reality make it one of the most beloved book series of all time. The series has many complex themes and is relatable to readers. Whether you are a fan of fantasy, adventure, or just a good story, the Harry Potter series is sure to captivate and enchant you.
