Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

It is our choices, Harry, that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities.

“And then he greeted Death as an old friend, and went with him gladly, and, equals, they departed this life.” Damn, Joanne, how badly did you want to be done writing these? That line can’t NOT be metafiction. All kidding aside, there’s some of Rowling’s best writing in this, and I missed it the first time around in my haste to see how it all played out, and my frustration (less warranted on second read through) about stranding our heroes in the woods for too […]

*Note: This review was completed in 2017 before the author’s views towards our trans siblings began to be widely known. My reading experience was what it was and these reviews will remain up, but it should be noted that I find her TERF values abhorrent, which have only become more clear over time, and her doubling down in Summer 2020 has made the decision to walk away from her as a creative force the only acceptable choice for me. I will no longer be supporting […]

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows 5 Stars I can’t believe I’m finished. Seven audiobooks in four months! Part of me is happy that I stopped reading the series when the movies came out because I don’t think I would have been a fan of the adaptations . And so we have Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows or, JK Rowling Continues to Kill her Darlings. Again decade old spoilers for the book and movies. The WW2/ Nazi dictatorship similarities are strong in this one: muggle-born […]

Hogwarts … You Can’t Go Home Again?

The kid and I recently read Harry Potter and the Cursed Child. Hmmm … I don’t know what to say. I guess I can say that my daughter liked it better than I did. Initially it was wonderful to see favorite characters again — Harry, Ron, Hermione especially. There are even appearances by some folks you might not expect. I won’t spoil it. But … I just didn’t buy it. This was not who I imagined Harry, Ron, Hermione to be as adults. There are so […]

Zirza on A Gothic Classic for a ReasonIt's one of those wish-you-could-read-it-again-for-the-first-time books. I loved it.
Emmalita on “It came to something when you found yourself hoping that the footsteps you heard were ghosts.”I loved the ending! I don’t think it’s been out long enough to talk about why though.

Roland of Gilead on How can you give us the gift of a crazy character named Rando Thoughtful and then just as suddenly take that gift away? We need to talk, Uncle Stevie.I came across this randomly years after it was written because I was searching "Random Thoughtful. But I have the...
Emmalita on “Only you, Em, would refer to heartbreak as a distraction. I think I would have a more sympathetic response if I asked to marry a bookcase.”Oh my goodness, Gallifrey was beautiful. I’m sure her mittens were gloriously murdery.
