Unfortunately I had this book for almost a month and each time I picked it up I had a terrible time getting into the story. I returned it only partially read. <br /><br />I have read a couple of positive reviews, amongst the not so good ones, so perhaps you will be one of the lucky ones who forges past the themes and gets to the story. I hope you do enjoy it once you decide to give it a try.Shirleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06065113724187544247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4987722184686660770.post-20749924679587123312012-10-24T07:56:59.005-06:002012-10-24T07:56:59.005-06:00Oh that's sad it didn't reach up to your e...Oh that's sad it didn't reach up to your expectations. I got it soon, pre-ordered it in fact, solely on the basis of it being written by JKR. I don't usually read these kind of books as of yet and I still haven't been able to convince myself to pick it up. I don't know, I just don't feel very comfortable with those themes. I guess I'll just put it off for later. Reading at the right time is also important, don't you think? :)Ashna https://www.blogger.com/profile/12736664196142668981noreply@blogger.com
