“Yeah, you can have a word”!said Harry savagely. “Goodbye” And he set off back to the castle with Ron.

"Remember Cedric. Remember, if the time should come when you have to make a choice between what is right and what is easy.”

“We are only as strong as we are united, as weak as we are divided.”

“You place too much importance, and you always have done, on the so-called purity of blood! You fail to recognize that it matters not what someone is born, but what they grow to be!”

“Numbing the pain for a while will make it worse when you finally feel it.”

"Curiosity is not a sin," he said. "But we should exercise caution with our curiosity…” 

"I sometimes find, and I am sure you know the feeling, that I simply have too many thoughts and memories crammed into my mind."

“Miss Granger, a plain but ambitious girl, seems to have a taste for famous wizards that Harry alone cannot satisfy.” 

“Never be ashamed, my ol dad use ter say, 'there's some who'll hold it against you, but they're not worth botherin' with. An' he was right. I've bin an idiot.”

“Twitchy little ferret, aren't you, Malfoy?"

"Having a nosy git like you for a brother." 

"Oh no, Ron," came Fred's voice, very sarcastically. "No, this is exactly where we wanted to end up."

When the Quidditch World Cup is disrupted by Voldemort's rampaging supporters alongside the resurrection of the terrifying Dark Mark, it is obvious to Harry that, far from weakening, Voldemort is getting stronger. The ultimate signal to the magic world of the Dark Lord's return would be the defeat of the one and only survivor of his death curse, Harry Potter. So when Harry is entered for the prestigious yet dangerous Triwizard Tournament, he knows that rather than win it, the pressure is on to succeed. But Harry does not realise that he will soon face a horrifying fate . . .

Book four of the Harry Potter saga is the story where JK starts building more complexity to her tales. The characters have a comfortable lived in feel and the events continue on a darker path. There is a joy in re-reading these tales after such a long time, maybe that's due to being comfortable with the characters as well. Whatever the reason, any trip on the Hogwarts Express is wonderfully thrilling.

Briar's Reviews

The fourth book in an amazing series that I still cannot put down! While I was warned against reading this book, I read it anyways! 

Hard core Harry Potter fan friends of mine told me after the third book the novels went downhill, and I don't know whether to believe them or not.

I found this book leaving me with a sense of "Don't put this book down or else" like I got from the first three Harry Potter books. Yes, I found the first chapter to be not the best way to start the fourth book, but other than that this book was flawless!

I am prepared to read the fifth book and not want to put it down either! This novel leaves you with high expectations for more action, adventures and chaos for Harry, Ron and Hermione in the fifth book! 

Hopefully this series will be continued in some form in the near future, but we can only hope!

Goblet of Fire unravels more about Voldemort's life as Tom Riddle. The book opens with a flashback describing the mysterious murder of Riddle's muggle family. Back to present day the Riddle's groundskeeper, Frank Bryce, discovers that Voldemort and his servant Wormtail have returned and reunited to fulfill the prophecy made in Prisoner of Azkaban. Meanwhile, Harry leaves Privet Drive to see the Quidditch World Cup with the Weasleys and Hermoine. After the championship match Death Eaters surface and cast the Dark Mark signifying Voldemort's return to power.

As Harry, Ron and Hermoine start their fourth year of school, a new defense against dark arts teacher is picked. Ex-Auror, Alistor "Mad-Eye" Moody replaces Professor Lupin. Hogwarts also is honored to serve as host for rival schools Beauxbatons and Durmstrang for the first Triwizard tournament in over a century.

Unlike the previous three books, the maturity of the characters is really at the forefront of this storyline. Goblet of Fire is a must read. It goes without saying, but it serves as an excellent lead in to Order of the Phoenix where Voldemort and his followers begin to surface.

i had so much fun with this one – considering i NEARLY dnf-ed it twice. the first 50+ pages were incredibly draggy and i had 0 motivation to continue reading the series. then, i decided to try again with the audiobook and IT WAS SO GREAT. i sped through the novel in a matter of days! the narrator is so much fun and i honestly wish i’d read all the previous books as audiobooks. even though i enjoyed HP 1-3, i didn’t understand the hype and found it kinda meh. now that i’m listening to the audiobook, i’m finally excited to continue the story and understand the appeal.

Harry Potter is midway through both his training as a wizard and his coming-of-age. Harry wants to get away from the pernicious Dursleys and go to the Quidditch World Cup with Hermione, Ron, and the Weasleys. He wants to dream about Cho Chang, his crush (and maybe do more than dream). He wants to find out about the mysterious event that's supposed to take place at Hogwarts this year, and event involving two other rival schools of magic, and a competition that hasn't happened for hundreds of years. He wants to be a normal,  fourteen-year old wizard. But unfortunately for Harry Potter, he's not normal - even by Wizarding standards. 
And in this case, different can be deadly.

Going back and reading this book was a wonderful idea. It reminded me why Dobby's death hurt so much and why Sirius' did too. The love they have for Harry is so pure and good that it makes the story even better.

This is going to be a short review.

The Goblet of Fire is my least favorite of the Harry Potter series. Maybe because it follows my favorite (Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban). Maybe because this is were the series definitely turns dark. Or maybe just because it was so long. The very first time I read this, when I got to the graveyard scene I was so annoyed (and maybe not for the same reason as a lot of other people) that I put down the book and wasn't going to finish it. Granted, that lasted a whopping ten minutes before I picked it back up because I still wanted to find out what happened and I'd already gotten so far into the behemoth. 

I have reread it a couple of times since then, and while it does not get my hackles up like the first time, it somehow lacks the dazzling bewitchment (no pun intended) of the other six books. It still has Rowling's notable style, twisting plot, imagination, and memorable characters. But it just doesn't resonate with me the way the other books do.

"it matters not what someone is born, but what they grow to be" 

"If you want to know what a man is like, take a good look at how he treats his inferiors not his equals" 

"Remember, if the time should come when you have to make a choice between what is right and what is easy remember what happened to the boy who was good and kind and brave, because he strayed across the path of Lord Voldemort. Remember Cedric Diggory" 

So many wise quotes from the one and only Professor Dumbledore.

I don't think I've ever liked majority (almost all) of the characters in one series before.

My poor Cedric baybee and my Ron and Dobby adorable and underrated.

I found it a little confusing. I was suspicious of everyone and I couldn't keep track with all the names, jobs, history etc (especially because I normally write in my physical copies of books but I was just borrowing the book so I couldn't write my notes) and I also had very little time to actually sit down and read it because I was stressed with all my exams so that probably didn't help with my confusion lol 

4.5 stars ✨

Glad Fred and George, George and Fred, came up a few times aswell.

"Percy wouldn't notice a joke if it danced nanked in front of him wearing one of Dobby's hats" 

"Who're you going with, then?" said Ron
"Angelina" said Fred promptly without a trace of embarrassment. 
"What?" Said Ron, Taken back, "You've already asked her?" 
"Good point" said Fred. He turned his head and called across the common room, "Oi Angelina!" 
Angelina, who had been chatting with Alicia by the fire looked over at him. 
"What?" She called back.
"Want to come to the ball with me?" 
Angelina gave Fred a sort of appraising look.
"All right then." She said and turned back to Alicia and carried on chatting with a bit of a grin on her face. 
"There you go," said Fred to Harry and Ron, "piece of cake".

Wayyyy more detailed than the movie, and found that it filled a lot of holes that were in the movies too! Definitely my favourite Harry Potter book so far, can’t wait to read the rest of them !

Kelsey Joëlle

Still one of my favorite HP books, trying to re-read all of them. Slowly.

Kei demand

I'm just going to dive right into reviewing this book. The plot is that Harry has been forced to entire the Triwizard Tournament by someone who really wishes that he was dead. Surprise surprise, right? Harry's entire life seems to be all about people wanting to kill him. Poor kid can't catch a break. 

Harry, Ron and Hermione are also growing up and starting to become more adultish. Harry and Ron had their first fight ever. Honestly, Ron can be a bit of an idiot but I understand why he was so upset with Harry. But on the same note, Ron has to know that Harry didn't ask for any of that fame. I mean, who wants to be known as the child of dead parents. That isn't fun. 

Also you start to see Hermione and Ron develop and you see the possibilities of a relationship. Reading this book now that I am older, I don't ship Ron and Hermione anymore. I was totally all about it when I was younger. I thought that Ron and Hermione were so cute and adorable. They gave me all the feels. Now, after Jk Rowling admitted to regretting the relationship, I can't help but agree with her. Ron is extremely incompatible for Hermione. Hermione needs someone as intelligent as her, that can keep up with her. It is what it is, I suppose. 

Fun fact to end this review: Rowling put in the part of Hermione teaching Viktor Krum how to say her name because she discovered that a lot of people were saying her name wrong. There. That is a thing you know. On to the next book!

** spoiler alert **
           I think this is probably one of my favorite so far. It took me awhile to finish it simply because of Cedric. I knew he died and I wasn't ready to read about it. However, I was torn between not reading his death and constantly wanting to read this book! 

I'm glad I waited so long after seeing the movies to read this. I couldn't remember who out Harry's name in and was so shocked that is was 'Moody' then add on the fact it wasn't really him! I had completely forgotten all of that!

Beatrix Haase

I just watched the movie and the movie was just so good and it reminded me that I actually love the characters and plot. So I am bumping this review to a 4/5 stars. Hopefully in the future I will read this again and bump it up to a 5/5.

xoxo,
Bebe

Finally done with this beauty. Right now, I just want to write as clearly and beautifully as JK Rowling.

The book, you ask? There's no doubt about how well written, adventurous and thriller this book is. It's a curse to no-read Harry Potter series.
