THIS IS THE REPLICA OF A REVIEW THAT I'VE POSTED ON MOUTHSHUT.COM
I just got the invitation to join this site from a "dear" friend of mine..hes gotten pretty popular on this site, so i'll not reveal his name..atleast for now. I read the other revies for the same book and i was totally taken aback....this is gonna make me seem so damn cynical...but what the heck..
What follows is actually from a letter that i was writing to my friend...she hasnt read th book yet, so absolutely NO spoilers in this review....
Here goes nothing
...So tell me about your BIG test?? BTW I finished harry potter and the deathly hallows today morning at 6.00 Am...was up all night reading it off the lappy thirteen hours straight, my eyes are blood red when i finally got to sleep...now the color has gone down a bit. About the book..well without revealing too much..or heck..i wont reveal anything to you now...i didn't enjoy the book as much i had the first four...It reads too much like a movie script...too Hollywood for my taste. The plot and all is pretty well weaved and all the characters have ample presence...JK madam didn't want to dissapoint any Ron, Hermione fans..so she wrote chunky bits for them as well....a lot of things about Dumbledore have been revealed too..I'll not say anything further at this point..for the fear of my death at your hands..hehe.
There was a theory i had come up with after the sixth(and the most boring) book of the series had ended...and that little theory was exactly what Mrs MoneyPants Filthyrich Rowling or MFR had in her conniving little mind too. Like all series finales this book had special appearances by all the seemingly forgotten characters..which i wont name, and also all the magical places that were described in the previous books. MFR has also sprinkled in a dose of her new-agey social messages..that are supposed to be relevant even in the "real" world. Some bits of this book are down-right gay...The second last chapter of the book is THE most annoying piece of literature i've come across in recent times. I'm sure hard-core potter fans will hate me for saying this..but i'm pretty confident MFR got stuck towards the end and came up with the lamest way out possible...even if i was the biggest jerk in the world i would be able to describe how lame i thought that chapter was..you really have to read it for yourself...
I think thats enough Potter bashing for now..and if it wasn't for my mild OCD to finish any series i have started no matter how bad or annoying it gets towards the end..i wouldn't have touched the book or the previous one as well for that matter.
