Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

NOW THIS IS WHAT I WANTED!

Except for the majorly cheap time travel twist, this book is a thorough delight through and through.

The character depth and focus are phenomenal. The drama is brilliant and realistically handled, and it is paced really well. It's just a brilliant book all around.

I won't yap too long like I do for some of my reviews here, but I'm really pleased with this! Got a little emotional towards the end for Harry, and I even managed to forget how much I hate J.K. Rowling now for a little while and get totally engrossed!

Exceptional.
