Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire by JK Rowling – review

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire is about a boy called Harry who is a wizard and goes to a school called Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry.

This is the fourth book of the Harry Potter series, I have read all of them up to four, and a quarter of the fifth. I have read this one three times (maybe two and a half). I love Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire so much I read it in every second of spare time I've had, even at school!

In this book the Triwizard Tournament is held at Hogwarts. The Triwizard Tournament is a competition between three wizarding schools, Beauxbatons, Durmstrang and Hogwarts. It is a competition involving three unknown tasks. Though you have to be 17 or over to enter, someone put Harry's name in the goblet and he ends up competing. Could the whole tournament be a trap?

This book was amazing. The characters are interesting and some are funny. Some of my favourites are Hermione, Hagrid and Dobby the house-elf. I like Hermione because she is smart, but not full of herself. Hagrid is friendly, even if he is huge. He is like a father to Harry, because Harry does not have one. Dobby is funny, sometimes a little crazy, and he always wants to help. He is a good friend to Harry, Ron and Hermione.

I recommend this book to people who like fantasy stories and I rate it 9⅞ out of 10. The only thing it needs is some Daleks.
