Book Reviews of Does Harry Potter Tickle Sleeping Dragons?
Book Review: Truly Surprising!
Summary: 5 Stars
I love the Harry Potter books and have wanted to know more about Rowling's thoughts on her series. This book delivered!
When I read the bit from the dustjacket that said "you may find the need to go back and read the Harry Potter books again... for the first time," I thought that would be awesome since they're such great books, but I sorta doubted that was really possible. I mean really, we all know that Harry and Voldemort is the classic good versus evil tale and stuff, and I'm a smart reader, so I didn't think I could have missed much. But I decided to give this book a chance to live up to its promise because five years of Potter/Rowling study, before releasing a commentary, is something no one else had ever done. No one.
After reading "Does Harry Potter Tickle Sleeping Dragons" and being swept away by the unique narrative style (man, that was fun!), I am pleasantly surprised to say that I am deeply impressed. This book lives up to its promise! Mrs. Villaluz has uncovered truly surprising clues which Rowling left all over the place. I really think this book explains a lot of intagibles that factor into Harry's literary success.
Thanks to this book, when the 6th movie comes out this summer, I'm gonna be looking at the scenes of Dumbledore and Harry in the cave with new, sharper eyes!
Next, I plan to spend the summer reading Rowling's books all over again while I wait for the second installment. This is shaping up to be a very cool and unique trilogy.
