The Books of Harry Potter

How you may now, the book serie Harry Potter consists on seven books. But there aren't books of 50 pages or 100 pages. They are books with at least 250 pages and a maximum of 750! If you don't like so much the book serie or if you don't like so much to read, sorry but I think to you keep watching the films instead of reading. Obviously I hope that the Potterians (or Potter Maniacs, you decide) had already read or plan to read.

The books written by JK Rowling, check her official site clicking here.

  The books are:




Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (England's edition)

Review (synopsis) of the book:
"Harry Potter is a common boy that lives on a closet under the stairs in his uncle's house. His live changes when redeemed by a bunch of owls and his taken to the School of Witchcraft and Wizardry of Hogwarts. There he discovers everything about the weird death of his parents, learns how to play Quiddditch and faces, on a duel, the cruel Voldemort."


With intelligence and creativity, JK Rowling created a classic of our times (but for me are the best books of all times). A work that combines fantasy and suspense is a original universe attractive to everyone (or at least most).

Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince

 Review (synopsis) of the book:
"We are in midsummer, but there's a strange fog that compresses the windows. Harry Potter waits, restless, on his room, on his uncle's house, Dumbledore's visit. Never on the other times that he saw the head-master, he treated a duel hand-to-hand with Voldemort. Harry don't understand very well what will be the reason to Dumbledore visit him on his uncle's house. Why couldn't he wait his return to Hogwarts, that is in a couple of weeks? The sixth year of Harry starts with a peculiar way, and the world of the wizards and the muggles, no doubts, appear to intertwine...


JK Rowling presents the adventures of Harry Potter in his sixth year with the ability of always and with a breathtaking rhythm."

Now you known a little bit more about Harry Potter.
: )

Know everything about:Lord Voldemort

Lord Voldemort. Murderer of millions of people in the whole world. A man without a heart (and without a nose hahaha : ), the terror of all wizards, the worst person that you can imagine. Tom Riddle, more known as Lord Voldemort, is... well, he is The Dark Lord. Can't bear the muggles, muggle-born and blood-traitors, he is the biggest vilan of the book serie Harry Potter. Tom Riddle was an orphan boy that lived in a orphanage when, in a certain day, Albus Dumbledore visited him. Dumbledore told him that he was a wizard and he also showed him a little bit of magic, but he got surprised when Tom said "I can make people suffer... if I want to...". Anyways Dumbledore invited him to study at Hogwarts, and he was selected to Slytherin by The Sorting Hat. In Hogwarts he had "friends" (which in fact were not good friends) that were called Death Eaters. Was an exemplary student, but Dumbledore never trusted him really much. He asked once to Horace Slughorn what was Horcruxs, and Slughorn, whit no idea what was he doing, answered what they were: when someone kills somebody, the killer can use any object to keep part of his soul, and until the object is destroyed, the killer becomes immortal. When he finished Hogwarts, he went to work on Burgin & Burkes (a shop on the Knockturn Alley, close to the Diagon Alley), what surprised a lot of his professors, because they thought that a boy so intelligent shouldn't be a clerk. Later, he tried to a professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts in Hogwarts, but Dumbledore didn't accept him. There are rumors that after Dumbledore didn't let him teach, the job became cursed and the following professors of Defense Against the Dark Arts didn't teach for more than a year, passing away. After Severus Snape say to what he heard of the profecy (made by Sibila Trelawney), sayind that Harry Potter and Voldemort should kill each other, the Dark Lord got scared that Harry could kill him, so he made 6 horcruxs. The old "friends", The Death Eaters, turned into his servants.  Voldemort tattooed on the left arm of each Death Eater, The Black Mark. To make an horcrux you need to kill someone, and Voldemort intended to make his seventh horcrux killing Harry. He didn't succeed and after that day, he isolated himself, living like a parasite inside other people's body, for 13 years. After these years, Voldemort returned and started trying to kill Harry Potter and attack muggles, muggle-born and blood-traitors again. With Death Eaters disguised as important persons of the Ministry of Magic, he was getting more and more powerful. Getting closer and closer to control the magic world and the muggle world. He died on the final battle of Hogwarts.

Know everything about:Albus Dumbledore

Who never heard about the famous Albus Dumbledore? The wise bearded old man... No? Albus Dumbledore is the most famous head-master of the School of Witchcraft and Wizardry of Hogwarts, known by his intelligence, his patience, his kindness, his sagacity, and, mainly, his love. Beyond his capacity of seeing the best of the people! He was created in Godric's Hollow, the same place that Lílian and Tiago Potter ( Harry's parents) lived and died. He had a big friendship with Grindelwald on his childhood and his adolescence. Rita Skeeter (famous jornalist) wrote a book about him, named Life and lies of Albus Dumbledore, that actually, can be quite interesting, but it isn't very real. He was murdered on the 6 year of Harry, by Severus Snape. Many think that Snape is a bad guy because of this, but it was the own Dumbledore that told him to kill him. He already was indicated some times to be the Minister of Magic, but he refused all of them.

More informations about: Hogsmeade

Who never dreamed in visit Hogsmeade? Who never dreamed in stay on the snow while talking to your wizard friends in Hogsmeade? Who never dreamed in check in in a hotel and buy things in Hogsmeade?


Hogsmeade is a village of only wizards that stays next to Hogwarts, were there are a lot of places to eat, to buy presents, candies, achievements, schoolar materials, clothes and other things.  


The students of Hogwarts from the 3th year to the 7th year you have permission to go to the village from time to time ( currently some days before commemorative partys, special dates and holidays) that are determined by the teachers and by the head-master.


Hogsmeade attractions are:


Hog's Head

A place not very frequented by the students, were only some mysterious people that don't take out their covers or able. A small tavern on the suburbs of the village, which has a smell of goat and is administrated by Aberforth Dumbledore, brother of Albus Dumbledore (famous head-master of Hogwarts, indicated to be the Minister of Magic). Is recommended to all that bring his one cup, because the place isn't one of the cleanest places and Aberforth always cleans everything with the same old and dirty cloth. It was there that Hagrid bought his dragon egg from a "mysterious man" (actually this mysterious man was Quirinus Quirrel) and it was there too that Harry, Rony and Hermione gathered a group of students from all houses (except Slytherin) for the first meeting of the Dumbledore's Army.


Honeydukes

Honeydukes is a confectionery of Hogsmeade, very famous and very frequented by the Hogwarts students, won of the biggest of Great Britain. Honeydukes sell all the tipe of candies, including Delicious Gases, Blood Lolipop, Licorice Wands, Mint Dental Floss, Explosive Chocolate, Nougat Tablets. The most famous are Beans of All Flavors and Chocolate Frogs.

Their owners are Ambrousius Flume and his wife, and on the floor of the store's inventory, has a trapdoor that takes to a secret passage that takes to Hogwarts. It was from this passage, that Harry went secretly to Hogsmeade on his 3 year, after getting the Marauder's Map from Fred e George Weasley.

House of Screams

Is considered the scariest house of Great Britain, only a few people have courage to approach to the house or even look from away. The villagers or the people checked in Hogsmeade said frequently that they heard howls, strange noises and sounds coming from the House of Screams, but on these days everybody knows that is only Werewolf Remus Lupin (he already was a teacher of Defense Against the Dark Arts in Hogwarts), that on the times that he was a student, he went evry full moon to the House of Screams, by a passage that exists on the Womping Willow (that was planted especially for this), to transform, to don't put students and employees in danger.

Owl Post


With more than five hundred owls from different sizes, colors, species and speeds, the Owl Post of Hogsmeade is the most wanted by local wizards. Some owls only do deliveries at the place or others can do a big travel, are divided by colors and emergency codes, speed, size, weight of the load...


Three Broomsticks


No doubt, a very famous pub and very frequented by the students, the teachers and the local neighbors!! Administrated by Madam Rosmerta ( which Rony had a crush), is specialized on the famous Butterbeer, but The Three Brooms to the best Aged Mead (oak)! Is possible to stay on the second floor and it's the place of the meetings of Madam Rosmerta, Minerva McGonagall, The Ministry of Magic, Dumbledore and other important persons. It also sells other drinks like Whiskey Fire, Gilly Water, Sparkling Punpkin, Currant Rum...

Coffe Madam Puddifoot


The Coffe Madam Puddifoot is a place, let's say... a little bit female. Everything is a bit pink, with bows, little flowers and this kind of stuff. They serve tea and (obviously) coffe and a few cookes and crackers. It's a big success on Valentine's Day, Madam Puddifoot, the owner, puts cupids that throw confetti on the tables. It was there that occurred the first Valentine's Day of Harry Potter and Cho Chang, that resulted on a big fight.


Dervish and Banges


A shop of magical instruments and other varied articles, like a Remembrall (Neville has one) and a Sneakoscop.


Scribe Feathers


It's a... well, a shop that sells feathers to write, were you'll find the most expensive, the most beatiful and other kind of feathers and ink. Hermione frequents the shop and it was there that she bought here golden and black pheasant feather. There is on the shop window very expensive and beatiful feathers.


Trapobelo Magic Fashion


It's a shop that they sell all the tipes of clothes, incluiding the uniform of Hogwarts and strange socks. This is the shop that Harry, Rony and Hermione bought socks for Dobby. Also has branch offices in the Diagon Alley, in London and Paris.


Zonko’s

Zonko's seems to be the shop that the students love, followed by Honeydukes. It is very frequented by Fred and George Weasley and Lee Jordan. It sells the best things of tricks and pranks. Among some of their products are Explosive Snap, Frog Eggs Soap, Hiccups Sweet and Cups that bites the nose. It was closed in 1996, to the sadness of the students.


Train Station

All the years, the students arrive in a big red train, The Hogwarts Express ( know more about him click here here), that arrives at the Train Station of Hogsmeade. The students when they arrive, they are directed to Hogwarts by the boats (students from the 1 year) or by carriages pulled by thestrals (from the 2 year to the 7 year).


Hogsmeade already was mentioned here and the House of Screams too. 


And below there is a photo of Hogsmeade.

The anthem of Hogwarts is:


"Hogwarts, Hogwarts, Hoggy Warty Hogwarts,
Teach us something please,
Whether we be old and bald,
Or young with scabby knees,
Our heads could do with filling,
With some interesting stuff,
For now they're bare and full of air,
Dead flies and bits of fluff,
So teach us things worth knowing,
Bring back what we've forgotten,
Just do your best,
We'll do the rest,
And learn until our brains all rot."

The first day of school year in Hogwarts is at 1 of September, the students go to the King's Cross Station, and, pass through a wall that exists between the platforms 9 and 10. Passing through the wall, you'll be in the platform 9 3/4 and at your front you will find the Hogwarts Express.

The Hogwarts Express is a big red train, that, every year, day 1 of September, at 11 am, takes the students from all the years and all the houses to Hogwarts. On the Hogwarts Express (usually) there are only two adults on board, the engineer and the woman that sells candies (excluding that some times there are teachers on board. There is a special cab, on the back of the train, for the monitors of all the houses.


__________________________________________________________________________________


Each house has two monitors, a boy and a girl, that can be selected after the 4th year. There is also the head-monitor, that can be selected after the 6th year. Rony and Hermione, on their 5th year, they were selected to be monitors of Gryffindor. Draco Malfoy was selected too, to be monitor of Slytherin.


__________________________________________________________________________________


Each house has a Communal Hall, were the students can talk to each other, study, play Exploding Snap... The Communal Hall has two stairs that takes to the boy and the girls sleeping room. The Communal Hall of Gryffindor is behind the painting of the Fat Women, the one from Hufflepuff is behind the painting of the dead nature, next to the kitchen. The Communal Hall of Slytherin is on the dungeons and the one from Ravenclaw is next to the Astronomy Tower.
__________________________________________________________________________________


Each house has a ghost, that stays next to their tables at the Main Hall on the meals and they stay at their Communal Halls too. The one from Gryffindor is Sir Nicholas, more known as Nick-Almost-Without-Head, he was semi headless and now his head is suspended by a few inches of skin that wasn't cut.

The ghost from Ravenclaw is Helena Ravenclaw, more known as Grey Lady. She is the doter of Rowena Ravenclaw and helps Harry to find one of the last Horcruxes of Voldemort, The Diadem of Ravenclaw. Actually, on the first part she didn't wan't to help (this explains she's anger on the photo), but later Harry convinced her.

The ghost from Hufflepuff is Chubby Frei, a fat priest, I don't know much things about him...

The one from Slytherin is the Bloody Baron, he lives full of silver blood and his the only one that can scary Prank, the poltergeist of the school.

Hogwarts has a ghost that haunts a toilet at the woman's bathroom, were is the Secret Chamber, her name is Moaning Myrtle. She lives crying and complaining of everything and she's always buzzed by the students. Because of her, the bathroom isn't really frequented by the students. On the day that she died, she was crying on the bathroom and she looked directly on the eyes of the basilisk.
