I've read seven years worth of Harry Potter in about a month. And yes, I've still managed to do other things as well. Yikes!
As a result, everything just sort of runs together...so excuse this and following postings for these books being a little short or inconclusive. I'm really SO done with this whole tale.
Don't get me wrong, I'm glad I've devoted part of a summer to what I'm sure will long be a favorite story among children and adults, I just know they were never meant to be read this fast or in such succession.
The Goblet of Fire to me, is where it all started to go downhill, for Harry at least. Cedric dies. The Dark Lord comes back to power. Oh boy, here we go...
The Triwizard Tournament was exciting and I'm really glad Rowling gave us one last really interesting Hogwarts adventure before it all became death and gloom and dying. Also, the introduction of the jealousy between Ron and Herminone, as well as culture of the other schools and Hagrid's little love affair were nice touches. In all, not my favorite book, but worth the 800+ pages.
