Harry goes off with Ron's family and Hermione to see the Quidditch World Cup between Ireland and Bulgaria! But then the Voldemort's sign, the Dark Mark appears in the sky again, a sure sign that Voldemort will rise again. But Harry is on his way back to Hogwarts again for his fourth year. This, the French school of wizardry Beauxbatons and the German school for wizardry Durmstrang are coming to Hogwarts to participate in the exciting Triwizard Tournament. Whoever wins gets a cup and 1000 Galleons (that's Wizard money). But Voldemort is on his way back to power again and Harry, who is in the tournament, must rely on Dumbledore to keep him safe. But he is now growing up and he, as an 14 year old adolescent, must choose who to invite to the Yule Ball, a special social in honor of Beauxbatons and Durmstrang. He is torn between tears when he finds his girlfriend Cho, is now walking around with Cedric. Harry hopes something will happen to Cedric so that he can go for her, and something does happen, but much worse than he hoped. I would give this book a 10 because although the start was slow, it got going fast and I was glued to my seat. If I could change the book in any way, I wouldn’t because it is fine like it is.
