HP VI
Posted: Thu 21 July, 2005 Filed under: Reviews(ish), Thoughts 1 Comment »Well, I’ve finished Harry Potter and the Penultimate Cash-In. In fairness, it’s not too bad at all – and far better than the awful sack of shite known as Order of the Phoenix.
There’s a fair amount going on throughout the book, and while it’s not rocket-science, I’ll admit there were a couple of bits where I thought “Hmmm, I wonder if what’s happening is…?”. Of course, I was wrong – but at least it made me wonder. More than can be said for …Phoenix.
A couple of twists at the end – and a semi-unexpected development or two – and yes, overall not bad at all.
Isn’t “couple of twists at the end” a bit of a spoiler? Once had a really good book ruined because I accidentally saw the blurb on the back that mentioned ” a twist in the last chapter”. Moral of the story – NEVER read the blurb.
