Warning: I don't use SPOILER TAGS!I am doing this review for the whole series. I found out about the Chronicles of Vladimir Todd in my recommendation list from a different GR account. At first, I wasn't curious or has this desire to read it even though I'm having a "Vampire streak" in my Read list before. But after exhausting myself with dystopian themed books, I finally gave this book a chance.Vladimir Tod is the only vampire living in Bathory. Life isn't easy for Vlad specially after his parent mysterious death. As he went through the changes brought about by school life and his vampire nature, Vlad must go through a series of trial to control his power and eventually try to disproof the prophecy about the powerful Pravus. Vladimir Tod isn't my typical vampire - he isn't popular and has none of the "vampire mojo" I'm used to see in the other vampire series I've read. And that was refreshing. Vlad, as a character, is so real to me. Heather Brewer made him an ordinary school kid - who has ups and downs, girl crushes, problems with dating. Aside from that she made Vlad appealing with his powers and the Prophecy about the Pravus. The other characters amused me too. Henry is adorable. He reminds me of Ron Weasley - in the basis of his loyalty with Vlad. Their friendship is real - drudge or not drudge. And Otis - I love this man. I was crying in the end part when his secrets were revealed. I wish the part of Nelly dying could be change. That was the downside of this series, I think. Aside from the characters, I truly commend the author on how she wrote the whole series. The flow, and that cliffhanger was wham! I wasn't expecting Vlad's dad to be alive and the mastermind of everything. I pity Vlad for that outcome. Deception by your own family, the thought will wrecked me and left me in rage. However, Vlad wasn't all like that. His growth as a character made me love this series so much. I wish it didn't end that way. Although I don't like Josh at all, I'm planning to read his POV. I give this a 4.5 stars.(minus for Nelly's death)

Why else would he be waking in the middle of the night, screaming in terror?Harry has a lot on his mind for this, his fifth year at Hogwarts: a Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher with a personality like poisoned honey; a big surprise on the Gryffindor Quidditch team; and the looming terror of the Ordinary Wizarding Level exams. But all these things pale next to the growing threat of He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named - a threat that neither the magical government nor the authorities at Hogwarts can stop.As the grasp of darkness tightens, Harry must discover the true depth and strength of his friends, the importance of boundless loyalty, and the shocking price of unbearable sacrifice.His fate depends on them all.

For twelve long years, the dread fortress of Azkaban held an infamous prisoner named Sirius Black. Convicted of killing thirteen people with a single curse, he was said to be the heir apparent to the Dark Lord, Voldemort.Now he has escaped, leaving only two clues as to where he might be headed: Harry Potter's defeat of You-Know-Who was Black's downfall as well.

For in Harry's second year at Hogwarts, fresh torments and horrors arise, including an outrageously stuck-up new professor, Gilderoy Lockhart, a spirit named Moaning Myrtle who haunts the girls' bathroom, and the unwanted attentions of Ron Weasley's younger sister, Ginny.But each of these seem minor annoyances when the real trouble begins, and someone -- or something -- starts turning Hogwarts students to stone. Could it be Draco Malfoy, a more poisonous rival than ever? Could it possibly be Hagrid, whose mysterious past is finally told? Or could it be the one everyone at Hogwarts most suspects . . . Harry Potter himself?
