You know, I liked the first book; the Ultimate Unofficial Guide, but
the last one (which I got for Christmas) is just plain annoying. Her
insistence on refering to JKR as "The Lady", her inability to write
even two pages without telling us how her stupid made-up "clue
detectors" are wiggling or jumping up and down or wetting themselves
with excitement, her little running bits which make no sense (JKR
focuses on eyes? No duh, most authors do, they're called windows to
the soul for a reason), and her just plain wrong conclusions all
combine to make the lastest book horribly unreadable for me. I'll
read about ten pages with dictionary and OoP in hand, then give up,
ready to scream in frustration.
I do see on Mugglenet that the big conclusion this time around is
that-- there's another basalisk in the Chamber? Huh? That is about
the dumbest thing I ever heard. We've been there, done that
already. Harry killed the first one when he was 12 freakin' years
old, I doubt another one would offer him much chaalenge. Heck, now
that they no what it is, they can just slide a frickin' rooster down
the tunnel and Harry won't have to fight at all.
