Just received this from a non potterhead friend of mine....always
good to have the less obsessive take I think...
then we got those two dreadful chapters: the prince's story, that
just went on and on forever, and was so dull. needed a lot of
pruning, that one. and i wasn't convinced that harry would spring
from hating snape to thinking him one of the bravest wizards ever on
the strength of knowing he got a hard on ever time he saw his
mother. bit odd, that. and dumbledore's explanation of the wands and
horcruxes and whatever. long, boring, lost me, and had a certain air
of pointlessness; not subtle i think, just very very convoluted, i
made it through the blood bit, which made sense, but the wands? out
with the red editing pen. reminded me of studying logarithms (which
i can't even spell, let alone do).
<snip and on to the epilogue>
she could have had more fun with this.
fewer horrible kids with names that obviously mean they have to
spend their entire childhood living up to dead people. hermione
should have been hoggy headmaster by then
