Potter 5

well, i finally caught up with the potter series. though i can't comment too much cause brad still needs to read #5. overall, much better than 1,2,and 4. i think i rank it equally with 3, if not slightly above. lots of adolescent emotion captured brilliantly. the person who dies does so in a somewhat heroic manner, and not til the end of the story. i think there was a lot of gobbolty-gook that could have been eliminated to make the book about 200 pages shorter, but the story was excellent. can't wait for #6.
