Ok, I have been thinking, I have seen a lot of conversation about how
dark the series is getting. And I have a theory, I know that the series
is written for the 9-12 age group, but if a nine year old started with
the first book at nine and read the books as they came out (which I know
is unlikely considering I didn't even hear about HP until the 3rd book
was released) then that 9 year old would be 12-13 now, as the kids grow
so do the story lines, by the time the 7th book comes out those 9 yr
olds will be 16, and the reading level of a 9 yr old is quite different
from that of a 16 yr old.

Just my 2 galleons worth.
