4th book in the Harry Potter series. I'm getting less impressed with Rowling's writing. Mostly because she is showing signs of a malady I've referred to before about authors who become too popular. It seems to become impossible to edit their stories, and they become 700+ page monstrosities. Same thing here. Not to mention, the stories she writes have become ever more complicated. Kids are supposed to read this and follow the explanations? I get to the exposition at the end and I'm confused, how's a 13 year old supposed to make sense of it.
Still, a decent read.
Rowling, J. K.
