Here’s How to Read the ‘Harry Potter’ Books For Free to Relive the Magic of the Series

As the best-selling book series in the world, most of us have read the Harry Potter series at least once (or, let’s be honest, dozens of times.) But if you don’t own physical copies, you may want to know where to read the Harry Potter books online for free to relive the magic of the series that made Harry Potter, Ron Weasley, Hermoine Granger and more fantastical characters household names.

For those who need a refresher, the Harry Potter series, written by J.K. Rowling, published its first book, Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone, in June 1997. The series follows a young wizard named Harry and his friends, Hermoine and Ron, as they attend the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. The books also followed Harry on his mission to stop Lord Voldemort, a dark wizard who killed his parents and wants to rule both the wizard and Muggle (non-magical) world.

After the release of Philosopher’s Stone (which was retitled in Sorcerer’s Stone in the United States), Rowling went on to release six more Harry Potter books: Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, and Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. 

The franchise also released eight movies and made stars out of cast members like Daniel Radcliffe, Emma Watson and Rupert Grint. With more than 500 million copies sold around the world, it’s clear that the Harry Potter series is one of the most successful franchises of all time. But if you don’t own physical copies of the novels (or just don’t have space to keep them in your home), you may want to know how to read the Harry Potter books online for free. Read on for how to do so.
