Wax brought me donuts and the Potter book and generously said I could read it first... and I kind of don't want to, meh. I was like five chapters into Thorn, one of the older installments of one of my favourite fantasy series. I've only read it like six times before... and actually remember half the crucial plot points. Okay, I'm being silly. But nobody in their right mind would want to go from the relaxingly urbane and expert narration of Saberhagen's Dracula to Rowling. *sigh*

It's... it's worth reading. It's entirely different to the books that have come before; has a very different feel to it. Understatement of the century, I know, but still!)

It picked up a lot at the end, but she didn't stop with the clumsiness, the idiotic major characters, or the boring early chapters.

C'mon, it'll be fun! Don't you want to know how it ends? (I know I do, and wild_boys had better be reading the damn book right this moment so she can tell me.)

Well, I did want to know how it ended, which kept me going through the first fifteen chapters or so of PAIN and all the characters I hate, but I kinda did wish there had been a cliff's notes version...
