Something Wicked This Way Comes: A Re-Review of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

Mischief Managed.

I’ve finally come full circle; I finished re-reading Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban.

I started this journey last year, re-reading and listening to the audio-book for Goblet of Fire; I started there because, a year or so prior to that, I’d just re-read the first three books, giving up at four because it was very long and I had other books I wanted to read.

Last year I went through the final four books. While I’ve read them all before, the audio-books a brand new experience for me. And when I’d finished, even though I’d recently read the first three books, I couldn’t help but feel I’d missed out, since I hadn’t listened to those audio-books yet.

With each books finished, I wrote some form of a review. On some I had clear ideas on what I wanted to talk about with revisiting the stories, on others I simply discussed stray thoughts that came to mind. I compared the movies, I talked about artwork and different ways to take in Rowling’s beautiful works. And now, with book three, I’d like to do more of the same.
