Book Reviews of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (Book 6)
Book Review: Harry Potter, need I say more?
Summary: 5 Stars
More of a mystery than some of the others, as entertaining as the rest. A must read for anyone who wants to know the whole story (movies are great fun, but the books are the backbone of the tale).Book Review: Beyond the Order of the Phoenix Aftertaste
Summary: 5 Stars
This is so far in my opinion the best Harry Potter book, together with the number 3, after the rumbles that the fifth one was, it was really refreshing to see a Harry more focused and centered, the history goes with no annoying moments, and it was one of the quickest to read so far.
OK, more in detail then:
The conflicts between the characters remain, which is great, the bad characters begin to give light that there is something else in them besides the urge to be opposite of being good, an common error in children's books these days, the duality good vs evil, in this book, you see persons with no choice having to do wrong, despite their wishes, a knowledge much harder to grasp for 11-years old, a book for the fans that kept growing.
I haven't read the 7 yet, and am going to keep it at bay for some time, but must say that the ending is really forcing me to find out how the seventh one starts.
Bottom Line:
Great Book, between the 2 best of the Series, great history, great ending, prepare for something shocking, Harry much more mature, Just the title, that has some connection to the book, but to me felt more like the name of a Chapter of instead the name of the book, but go wonder. In the end it certainly made more sense, but still, not enough.
Enjoy a great read.
Book Review: Another Great Book in the Series
Summary: 5 Stars
Nothing I can say more that hasn't been said alrady. Highly recommend. A must read in the series.Book Review: Potter contines
Summary: 3 Stars
Slow, slow, slow........That's what this book is, If it hadn't been next in line, I probably wouldn't have read it. Probably the worst of all the books.Book Review: Amazing - it keeps getting better!
Summary: 5 Stars
It really does keep getting better - every new book becomes my new favorite. Favorite scene: Felix Felicis/Slughorn/Harry gets the memory. And of course the kiss. And the cave. And pretty much the whole book. The death scene was the most devastating thing I have ever read. You really become emotionally invested in the characters. For the first time ever, I started re-reading the book immediately after speed-reading it (at midnight when it was released). Read it!!
