It's shit like that that ruins the book. I say "us" because while I believe that taste is subjective, I also believe that art can be generally good and bad. I believe that this book was basically bullshit. I find it hard to believe that in anyone's heart of hearts they actually like this book. Apparently, I'm wrong. You and some others, who seem like smart, perceptive folks to me, seem to like this book. Whatever, I'm not stopping you, but I'm not going to stop complaining about the book, because I feel cheated.
Ozymandias:
All I'm hearing from the people who didn't like the book is that people think they understand J.K. Rowling's characters and universe better than her.
Which is, actually, among the most asinine things I've ever heard.
Ernest:
How can that possibly be the most asinine thing you've ever heard? She wrote a goddamn shitty-ass book. You're also spinning it. We're not saying that we understand the characters better than she does, we're saying that she did a half-assed job wrapping the series up.
CmonMiracle:
The language being used in this thread is out of control. Also, this thread is out of control now, it's pretty much degenerated into shouting back and forth.

What I meant was that it was random. It's like having a toaster that gives you dating advice. If it had been a compass or binoculars or something you usually use to find something that's different.
