Customer Reviews

Not as described

Book came without a cover jacket. Did not state that it would be missing. Very disappointed. Book was going to be used for a display, now I have to buy another book. Waste of money. Please let us know when a book is missing the jacket!!

Came without a dust jacket

Condition of book was as expected and I am very happy with the price. But nowhere in the description or condition requirements is it listed that the book I would receive would come without a dust jacket.

A little disappointed

I purchased this book in "very good condition." I would day its "ok condition." It's been written on in sharpie and pencil marks all over the pages. It also didn't come with the cover which is very disappointing. If I had known it didn't come with the cover I wouldn't have ordered it. :(

favorite series

Great fan of Harry Potter. JK Rowling’s description allows for the imagination to soar while being a wizard yourself.

Love it

The delivery was fast and it looks practically brand new! :)

Like New Condition is Misleading

I do not think the book should have been listed as 'Like New Condition' when the inside cover page has ink writing dedicating the book to someone. Very disappointed that I paid more for a like new condition copy that was clearly not new looking.

Drawings on the cover

The book had a good rating but the cover and back of the book is covered in drawings and writing with pen.

Buyer Beware - Condition Not Accurate

Super disappointed. No dust jacket included. Condition is fair/acceptable at best. I purchased for my own private collection and don't mind used books at all, but there's "gently used" and "poor condition". This would fit the poor condition bill.

No jacket

Would’ve like to have known before hand that this didn’t have a jacket. Both of the Harry Potter books I bought on my last order did not have them. I wouldn’t have purchased this copy if given a choice. I also purchased HP 1,2,4,7 on an earlier order and those were fine. I’m disappointed and I’m sure this will change how frequently I order from here.

No dust jacket

Book is fine other then it didn't come with a dust jacket.

No dust cover

Came with no dust jacket so doesn’t look like picture

wrong book

i was ordered a large print of the book " Harry Potter and Half-Blood Prince" because I have a vision issue. BUT they sent me a small printed book. I'm so disappointed.

Great job

Book as advertised My daughter loves it Thank you!

All time fave! Nvm the author (sorry not sorry)

Never left the top 10 spot of my all time favorite series. I dunno how many times have I reread this series along with PJO & TMI 💕 Perfect for kids and young at hearts 😁

No dust cover

One of my favorite Harry Potter books!

In my opinion this is one of the best books of the HP series!

Came without book jacket

Came with NO book jacket, and nowhere did I read that it would not have one. In order to return it I would have to pay a no refundable shipping charge. Extremely disappointed

Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince is as exciting as the others in the series

Love all of the Harry Potter books, from the first in the series to the last. Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is full of incredible enchantment and adventure as the rest.

Great!

Loved it!

Great Read

love it nice not messed up at all 5 stars

Love all the Harry Potter books!

My daughter will enjoy reading these books as much as I have.

I have it; great book.

Harry's saga continues (*French language version)

This is the French translation of Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince. An excellent read. Very faithfully translated, although there are a few editing mistakes (dropped periods being the most common error) - but nothing that would really detract from the reading experience. I am going to assume that if you're looking at book 6 of the Harry Potter saga, you know what the book is about. So my review is based on the experience of reading this (and the other books in the series) in French. If you are a French student looking to improve your language fluency, I highly recommend reading otherwise familiar stories such as these in French. It is amazing how quickly your fluency improves when you read in your target language. And these books are so much fun, with such rich descriptive detail, you'll enjoy every minute.

Awesome purchase

I read this version of the book when I was abroad in Italy so I wanted this version as a keepsake. The retailer described the only physical flaw in the book (like a creased corner or something) to a T, it was wrapped in the most insanely protective packaging, and obviously the book is amazing and I tore through it all over again. Great price, great read, and I'll have it always. Thanks -

Excellent Book/ Libro Excelente

This book is a must have whether or not you're into the Harry Potter series this book plus the Deathly Hallows takes you deep into the story and let's your imagination soar with the incredible details and full of action. Este libro esta buenisimo y le encataria a todo el mundo, tenga o no conocimiento de la serie de Harry Potter. Junto con el libro de la Muerte Santifica (Deathly Hallows) te lleva tan adentro de la historia y deja que se eleve tu imaginacion con los detalles increibles y esta llena de accion.

Exceptional Book

The millions of JK Rowling readers are not deluded - the book is one of the rare examples of excellent fiction that are currently available. Like many great books, it does take a few hundred pages to get used to JK Rowling and her style and subject, but by then you are hooked with her story and characters.

El mejor libro de la serie!

Si eres un fan de la serie de Harry Potter y has leido los primeros 5 libros, no hay forma de que te puedas perder este! (Si no has leido los primeros, leelos y luego lee este) Durante el 6to año de Harry Potter en Hogwarts, el niño que vivió sigue enfrentandose a las peores pesadillas de la mayoría de los magos. Mientras que todos estan asustados por la posibilidad de que regrese Voldemort, Harry tiene que enfrentarse una vez más a... Lee el libro, es asombroso! No voy a decir más sobre este libro.
