About Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone Book
Harry Potter spent ten long years living with Mr. and Mrs. Dursley, an aunt and uncle whose outrageous favoritism of their perfectly awful son Dudley leads to some of the most inspired dark comedy since Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. But fortunately for Harry, he's about to be granted a scholarship to a unique boarding school called THE HOGWORTS SCHOOL OF WITCHCRAFT AND WIZARDRY, where he will become a school hero at the game of Quidditch (a kind of aerial soccer played high above the ground on broomsticks), he will make some wonderful friends, and, unfortunately, a few terrible enemies. For although he seems to be getting your run-of-the-mill boarding school experience (well, ok, even that's pretty darn out of the ordinary), Harry Potter has a destiny that he was born to fulfill. A destiny that others would kill to keep him from.

Even now, if you ask anybody about Harry Potter, they would refer to it as magic or Emma Watson. I really want people to read the books at this point. I feel this huge urge to make them read the whole series.
You see, it's not only about sorcery or black magic. As there is no effort needed in watching the movies, almost the whole population of the world has seen all the movies. But the ones who have read books like me, know that the movies were not able to cover up the true emotions and feelings of the book.
Harry Potter is more about loyalty of friends, deep love towards someone and a tragedy.
