Harry Potter Series (Re-read!)

This week I thought I'd talk about all the books I was able to re-read this year and what I thought about them the 2nd (or 3rd) time through! Today I'm starting with the Harry Potter books.

I'd only read them through once and that was back in the day as the last one had just come out. Now I got to read them again and though they are still good, they're not as great as I remember.

Too many things are possible in the world of magic, it makes it hard to believe they had such a hard time fighting evil when they can literally DO anything. There's ways to make you stronger, smarter, luckier and even time travel! Which is a really ugly plot hole in the entire series because it makes you wonder why they didn't just go back in time and stop this all from happening from the very begining!

That and apparent lack of reasoning to why the "magic" world is so well hidden from the public though in today's world (or the early 2000's when this came out) none of the events could've taken place without everyone on earth knowing about it. (No matter how many memory charms you cast)

But overall, it's still a good series and one I'll probably read to my kids when they get older.
