cozy_academic 's review for:

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire by J.K. Rowling

2.75

adventurous challenging dark emotional reflective tense medium-paced

Plot or Character Driven: A mix

Strong character development: Complicated

Loveable characters: Complicated

Diverse cast of characters: No

Flaws of characters a main focus: N/A

---

The book has good parts in it, but it drags and you can see Rowling's problematic worldview in the writing of the novel, particularly

Hagrid's opinion on "foreigners"

that seems out of character for him. Some of the characters have good British-humor one-liners and the ending was okay, but

Voldemort's return is one big boring 10-minute monologue

where I can't take him all that seriously.
