Advantages: good story and fast paced

Disadvantages: bit morbid :(

SPOILER ALERT!!

Raw emotion is the name of the game in this HP book. After losing his godfather before the summer, Harry is obviously devastated. The only real family he ever had is gone. Yet he perseveres in his war against Voldemort while diligently attending school. His private lessons with Dumbledore explore the unknown world of Tom Riddle while he struggles with his emotions for Ron's sister.

Rowling has delivered yet another thrilling book that fans will surely love. As the series has gone on though, it has become increasingly darker and darker. Yet amidst all the doom and gloom, Rowling manages to brilliantly inject humour, the sort of genius you would expect from your own friends, which makes a very pleasurable read .With a beloved character dying at the end of this book, I doubt whether younger children would be handle reading it.. The manner of the death leaves a lot of speculation and unanswered questions and will not doubt leave you wanting for more.

Summary: she delights us again!
