Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, by JK Rowling, 310 pages
It has been awhile since I revisited the world of Hogwarts et al, and I'm glad I did. Especially in audiobook form, since it was narrated by the brilliant Jim Dale, and when obtained through Overdrive you can speed the voice up a bit (a life-saver during boring quidditch matches). If you haven't read this since it came out in 1997, but you were there for the journey from book to film to conclusion, it is well worth revisiting. You forget how Harry Potter and all of the characters, muggle and wizard alike, really started so innocent and you will get glimpses of what you know lies in the later books. I still love this series.
