Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, by J.K. Rowling


Ah, Harry Potter, I am hooked on you. In Year 3 of Harry's schooling at Hogwarts, he finds himself wrapped up in yet another adventure that has the potential to end in death. This time, a convict has escaped from the wizards' prison, Azkaban (a prison no one breaks out of, ever), and the convict is heading for Hogwarts, supposedly to kill Harry. Meanwhile, there is a new (and wonderful) teacher at the school, Professor Lupin, who has a secret, while Hermione has a secret of her own. Oh, and Professor Trelawney won't stop predicting Harry's death. But, as many loose ends as there are, the many subplots all come to a completely satisfying end before the book is through.

This was my favorite book in the series thus far...on to Year 4 I go!
