The books are beautifully written, each and every characters has its own different characteristics and they all have their own importance. The characters are very real excepting the fact that they have this magical gift. Conversations, emotions and the teenage life are very well presented and designed.
J.K Rowling has a very readable style. She has this talent of transposing you into the world that she created. She makes the characters very attractive and her narration is very clear, so true the lecture you feel like you are living the story along with the characters.
Excepting the fact that they have these magical powers, the characters are very real and relatable when it comes to everyday teenage problems. They have the rights attributes according to their age.
The story is presenting the beautiful aspects of a friendship and what a true friendship is. It also covers the not so good parts in a friendship, showing situations where friends have been angry with each other. As an example when Harry had an internal fight about with Ron and Hermione, feeling that they will never understand what is he is going through. But, the best part of the books is that no matter what happens, the true love between all three is triumphant, the friendship never lets them be a part for too long and in times of need they will always stand beside each other.
The books also shows different levels of friendships that people can have. For example the friendship between Harry, Neville and Dean or with Fred and George or the friendship all three had with Katie and so many others. Also, the friendship with Hagrid, it shows us that friend biding has no age limits.
J.K Rowling shares valuable lessons of life in her books. She is picturing the family love, between a mother and her son, brother and sister, between friends, and she is doing it so well that even you as a reader end up realizing that you have so much love to give. In the books we can also find feelings like sorrow and grief, it shares with us the feeling of losing a love one, for example, in this story, characters like Sirius, Dumbledore and so many others. Another lesson that we encounter in the story is how to move on, keeping memories intact and completing the mission of which other people also depend.
One of the things that I like a lot in the books is that J. K. Rowling wrote them as if she was there when everything happened, as if she was from that magical world, taking part at every adventure. The way she described all the creatures, architecture, characters, even the concept is so magical that thee reader.
