Potioncat, back in the middle again...

I feel for those who don't like DH. There is a lot to not like. In 
truth, this final book has shed a glaring light on weaknesses 
throuhgout the series. 

But in my case, reading differing opinions, and taking part in 
discussions have given me a more positive view. I may be using a form 
of Occlumency, because I am compartmentalizing some of the issues of 
DH and ignoring them a bit. 

I've started a very slow second read of DH. And, honestly, I'm 
enjoying it. In fairness, I did enjoy the first half of the book the 
first time around, but now I'm seeing some foreshadowing. We'll see 
how I feel when I'm done. 

I do agree strongly, that whatever one's viewpoint, one should be 
able to voice it, and those who feel differently should respectfully 
promote their opinions without disparaging others. 

As to "one little post stirring up this big pot." Well, in my opinion 
at least, that's far better than having one little post met with a 
thundering silence. Listen, can you hear it?
