eschoeps 's review for:

4.0

Not as fun as I remember. I don't like this one as much because it doesn't take place at Hogwarts, which is like 99% of the fun of these books for me. There's a lot of deus ex machina and convenient plot devices, which is frustrating and seems kind of lazy. The romances are kind of bland and nonsensical and lack any real warmth. The ending section that jumps 15 years in the future is so cheesy. I'm don't really have anything positive to say... but I still love these books somehow and I absolutely raced through this.
