Summary: Absolutely the _best_ in-depth Harry Potter Guide YET!!
Comment: I have read just about all the Harry Potter "guides," and, being an avid fan (aka: obsessed), I cannot say I have found a single better book. After begging for it as a Christmas gift, as I found the price a bit high for a college student like myself, I haven't put the book down since. This book is jam-packed with facts and histories, and theories about things even -I- have overlooked! Believe you me...once you read this, you'll be reading the first four Harry Potter books over and over again...the wait until Order of the Phoenix won't seem so long, as you become an HP Sleuth and try to find yourself what the wonderful Galadriel Waters has missed. Honestly, this is an excellent book, and please, please don't let the price fool you...this book is HUGE! Heavy, too! ^_~ Over 400 pages, filled with everything possible to make the little wheels in your head start turning. I've suggested to all my fellow fans for them to READ_THIS_BOOK!

Summary: A Little Overboard, but still ALOT of fun!!
Comment: I started reading the Harry Potter books a few months ago and couldn't believe how hooked I became on them! Naturally while trying to kill time while #5 comes out, I began to look around for other books related to the story. The Ultimate Unofficial Guide to the Mysteries of Harry Potter caught my eye!! I've never been able to stand surprises, so any insight they could give into the story was more than welcomed.
Naturally like any book that is entirely devoted to one subject, the authors went overboard in pointing some things out to you. It was interesting though to see how many times JK Rowling had repeated herself in different ways throughout the 4 books and to wonder what those clues may mean....!! All in all it was a very entertaining read and I can't wait to find out if their predictions are correct!!!

Summary: An interesting and in depth analysis
Comment: I found this book very interesting and liked it very much. The background info on names, in specific, was wonderful. It opens up a whole new world of ideas for me as to what will happen in the next few books and gives interesting insights as to particular characters' actions. The book is actually rather accurate most of the time (I read it after I read OotP). Some fascinating septology clues are pointed out that I never would have found on my own, like references to other works that JKR might parallel.
There were some things I didn't like. For example, parts of the Restricted Section in the back. I found it a bit far-fetched, though, certainly, what they say is possible. Then there's some things I thought that the solution/answer was obvious to, yet they couldn't figure it out. Overall, though, it was a fun book to read and was very insightful.
