Harry Potter and The Goblet Of Fire

 The book I am reading this week is called Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire by J.K.Rowling.
Pages read: 660/734

 There is a Tournament each year in the wizard world: The Triwizard Tournament, where one wizard is selected from one of the three magic schools: Hogwarts, Beauxbatons, and Durmstrang. Viktor Krum, a world-famous Quidditch player, is chosen from Durmstrang. Fleur Delacour is chosen from Beauxbatons. Cedric Diggory is chosen from Hogwarts. But just as they were going to end the ceremony, the Goblet chose another player. Harry Potter. But Harry didn't put his name in. He is not old enough.
Harry is brave and strong, because he escaped Voldemort thirteen years ago.
Ron Weasley is Harry's best friend, he is witty, stubborn and jealous. He is witty because he helped Harry figure the three tasks out, even though he is not allowed. He is stubborn and jealous because he convinced himself that Harry put his name in:
"I didn't put my name is that goblet!" said Harry, starting to feel angry.
"Yeah, okay," said Ron, in exactly the same skeptical tone as Cedric. "Only this morning you said you'd have done it last night, and no one would've seen you. . . . I'm not stupid, you know,"
"You're doing a really good impression of it," Harry snapped.
"Yeah?" said Ron, and there was no trace of a grin, forced or otherwise, on his face now. "You want to get to bed, Harry. I expect you'll need to be up early tomorrow to do some photo-shoot or something"
Hermoine Granger, is Harry's other best friend. She is accused by Rita Skeeter (a news reporter) of being Harry's girlfriend (LOL) even though she is only his friend. She is very helpful and knowledgeable even though she's not completely a wizard. She is also witty because she also tries to help Harry for the three tasks even though no one is allowed to know what they are:
"That's better, Harry, that's loads better," Hermione said, looking pleased.' She was helping Harry practice how to do a proper Summoning Charm, which was a spell (or a charm) which summoned objects and brought it to he or she who performed the spell.
"Accio Dictionary!" The heavy book soared out of Hermione's hand, flew across the room, and Harry caught it.
Hagrid is Harry's favorite teacher and tries to help him whenever he can.
All the headmasters of the schools and Hagrid (Harry's favorite Control of Magical Creatures teacher) want their champions to win, so they will do whatever it takes.
(By the way, this is the longest blog post I have done yet! :D)
