Oh, Dobby, you meant well but...

This one isn't as strong as the first or the others in the series. I think only Half-Blood Prince would rank lower than this for me, but who knows. That might change when I get around to listening to that one.

I'm remembering how much I enjoyed book!Ron and I wish they'd more of an effort to get him right for the movies. :( And while every book has its share of plot holes, the ones here were pretty glaring. Are we really to believe that Hermoine, of all people, would rip a page out of an old book - AND WRITE ON IT?!!! No. There are some things I can suspend my disbelief for, but not that. It's asking too much. 

"It is our choices, Harry, that show us what we truly are, far more than our abilities."

True that.
