All in all, I thought that the book was ganerally an interesting read, however, I found it full of a bit too many facts, a bit too quickly and some things just like popped out of nowhere, like the romance between Ginny and Harry, it was written like a fan-fiction, however, it wasnt a main storyline, although romance did play quite a big part in the book

I felt that giving snape the DADA position was quite a good idea, as it had been mentioned in all the other books, and having an actual real curse be revealed to have been placed on the position by voldemort was also a good idea !

I felt that harry wasnt actually featured int he book half as much as he should have been. he didnt get enterered into the picture till the third chapter, and i foudn that he only wen on one actual adventure int he book, which ended in dumbledore's death and snapes cover being blown !!

I felt it was kind of rushed toward the end, but it wasnt badly written, and it is quite realistic that it would all happen that quickly, JK left a lot of times open to wondering what would happen, and there was a generous amount of tension within

There were a lot fo pieces that began to fit together in this story however, the reasons behind tom's decent to evil, and how harry can truly defeat him !

it actually gives quite a clear view of what the ourcome of the 7th book couldbe, and in some eyes, its quite a devastating ending... that is if all goes to plan !!


so all in all, not the best put together story I feel of her series, however I feel that it is a good addition to the world of HP as we needed an informative story to actually fit all the ecents together...

Ijust hope there's more action in the next one, and judging by harry's decision at the end to not return to hogwarts (if it actually DOES open again) then it could turn out to be very interesting
