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 International Quidditch Cup with Hermione, Ron, and the Weasleys. He wants to dream about Cho Chang, his crush (and maybe do more than a dream). He wants to find out about the myseterious event that's supposed to take place at Hogwarts this year, an 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 his case, different can be deadly.

From the back cover:"Harry Potter is midway through both his training as a wizard and his coming of age.

If there hadn't been so much hype about the series at the time, I probably would have liked reading the book. As it is, I never touched it. I am currently reading the earlier books in the series but I have those in hardback so these need to find a new home.
