Weakest link in the Harry Potter series. It made me sad to see that otherwise strong HP characters have been reduced to bumbling idiots eg. Ron and Hermione. There’s no Neville, no Teddy Lupin. Ack…this book is tacky. JKR has conceptualised a good story, but Jack Thorne and John Tiffany ruined it with shoddy writing.
