The Beginning of the Boy Who Lived
Growing up I never read any of the Harry Potter books (although I read the first two a couple of years ago but don’t remember anything from them) but I watched all of the movies so I knew the main things that were going to happen. I was surprised by how different the character relationships are in the book versus the movie and how Neville gets pushed out in the movies when he plays a semi big role in the books. I think the detail of the characters and the character relationships are my favorite part about the book versus the movie. Enough about the book versus the movie, let’s focus on the book. I love how Harry and Ron come from similar financial backgrounds, of always getting hand-me downs and never anything new just for them. I thought that brought them closer and really started their friendship. I’m glad Hermione was able to became more friendly and still keep her focus on studying and knowing just about everything. Malfoy clearly comes from a family who cares all about image and thinks they are better than everyone and can get away with everything. It was interesting to see how Ron has spent his life in the shadows of his older brothers and to know what everyone expects of him, to see Hermione know everything even though she is from a muggle family and to see that people expect things from Harry but they aren’t sure what yet. I also feel like Harry has a lot of pressure on him because of how his parents died and him being the youngest seeker, and of course being the boy who lived. I really enjoyed the book and thought the movie left out a lot of cool or semi important details - but what book to movie adaptation is perfect. I liked following Harry’s path from living with the Dursley’s, to meeting Hagrid, exploring Diagon Alley, learning about you-know-who, going to Hogwarts and all of his adventures while at school. I’m glad we got to learn more about Harry’s parents, other then they are dead, and introduced to the relationship between his dad and Snape. I love how caring Hagrid is about Harry and his incredibly thoughtful gift he gave him.
