Alright, so I said "coming soon", but I just can't help it!
Well, we all know Harry Potter. A series destined to be a classic. It's nice, and the characters have many layers. It's understandable and imaginative, and the movies are great.
My fave book in the series is POA (Prisoner of Askaban). I really like the Marauders and more info about Harry's parents were presented. But the others are all perfectly fine.
Except one. The last book. DH was really disappointing. Some scenes (like the snake coming out... oops, spoiler) are so..... unoriginal. So maybe it's hard to find original ideas nowadays, but it's J.K. Rowling. I expected better from her.
Well, there's not much to say about the other books. SS provided enough info about Harry and co., so the reader won't be puzzled when J.K. suddenly refers to something else. Which rarely happens. She's really a good writer. Her very first chapter was a bit mediocre though, but that's understandable. It's her first time, after all.
J.K. developed the characters properly throughout the series. They aged, they faced problems commonly met by ordinary people. The characters were very realistic. Well, I mean by the way they think and act. Who ever said wizards are realistic?
Well, so I guess that's all for tonight....
I WON THE DIVISION SCIENCE CONTEST!!
I just can't get over that, can I?
