I just finished reading the best review of a book EVER over at The 
Leaky Cauldron. Neva Chonin of the San Fransisco Chronicle reviewed 
OOP, and finally, here's a critic who GETS it! She obviously has read 
the text closely, citing Moody's disillusionment charm as a sign-post 
for readers as to the book's direction.  She writes of Harry's 
suffering with real emotion, and eloquently nails what both disturbs 
and compells us about this text.  For those of you disappointed in 
OOP, I urge you to take a gander at this essay, and I guarantee that 
you will feel compelled to pick up OOP for a close re-read.  I am 
anxious to hear what folks on this list make of this most excellent 
review!  Here is the address:

Enjoy!
