Potter Slaughter

Yes, I have finished reading the latest adventure of Mr.Potter. And now that I am writing my own feelings about the book I realize that I am a tad bit later than people who finished the book the same weekend. I admit I have been slow. But I feel the need to blame J.K. Rowling for the slow pace at which I read the book. I had finished the Order of The Phoenix in 10 hours flat, but the half-blood prince felt more like a mills n boon set against the background of a magical world being taken over by the dark lord.

I kept reading and within no time I knew that this book was to claim Albus Dumbledore’s life. That was the only exciting thing that happens in the book. Probably Rowling leaves us bored with ths one because the next book will be full of exciting adventures that will lead to the death of Harry Potter… But I am not pinning my hopes on it… I did so the last time and The half blood prince left me unsatisfied and thoroughly bored.
