Who's your favorite possum?
I finished it Sunday... and only got to read it for about an hour on Saturday :(, but I still finished it MUCH faster than that blasted fifth book, but still not as quickly as the first through fourth books (finished all of those in just one day... but I may have with this one if I had enough time on Saturday).

First off, for those of you that haven't read it yet, skip the second chapter. It gives the WHOLE book away... it's terrible... and even more blatently obvious than it's predecessor (bad thing). However, to it's credit... it showed how well planned that the series was as a whole, because it connected all of them together (except number 1, which she (Rowling) made a really lame excuse for). It's good enough to read, and much better than the book before, but it will never be up to par with books 3 and 4.

Now's time for me to give the rest of my complaints in detail:

In short, it was good, but not as great as it should have been.

She's writing more for the money now...

And at one point she said that each book would be longer than the previous one... what the blank happened to that?!! MONEY.

But if you read those spoilers, because you finished or don't care, take a look at this one (it's hilarious):

But in all seriousness number 5 sucked, and this is a step up.

Actually, if I remember correctly, JK Rowling said in interviews before the book came out that

No, not really any questions.. both of those sound reasonable...
