MixedThis book isn't my number one because it did do something special for all literary readers, and I appreciate what Harry Potter series did, but it's fantasy and it's a children's book, and this is a science fiction adult award in my opinion.

Others: Overwhelmingly positiveFor Harry Potter, it’s the start of another far-from-ordinary year at Hogwarts when the Knight Bus crashes through the darkness and comes to an abrupt halt in front of him. It turns out that Sirius Black, mass-murderer and follower of Lord Voldemort, has escaped – and they say he is coming after Harry. In his first Divination class, Professor Trelawney sees an omen of death in Harry’s tea leaves. And perhaps most frightening of all are the Dementors patrolling the school grounds with their soul-sucking kiss – in search of fresh victims.

Loved itif I had to choose one of the seven books, it would probably be the fourth one, Harry Potter and the Goet of Fire just because that's where things start getting really, really exciting and tense and I love it.
Loved itthis book was just so well done i loved every single element from the quidditch world cup to the tournament to seeing the wizarding world on a grander scale to of course the ending which did so much for the overall series arc
