Christmas holiday reading… minimal comments.

I enjoyed this but I don’t think I’m quite as impressed with this series as everyone else in the world. I’m enjoying the fact that Harry, Ron and Hermione are growing up and acting like fourteen year olds and not getting stuck aged eleven in bookland. The character development is pretty good but the stories aren’t engaging me as much as they might. I really did think this one was getting a little drawn out at over six hundred pages. There’s plenty of storyline to fill the pages and it doesn’t get tedious, I think it’s just that I’m beginning to find Harry’s legendary status both in the real world and the one he inhabits bit trying.
