I love Harry Potter and I totally agree with you Sistermadly!! I felt like the whole book was building up to something huge (which it did, don't get me wrong)-- but then it ended in less than 100 pages!!

In the other books all of the major incidents happened mid-book and then the book finished out with the solution to the problem!! Its almost as if there was not a major incident-- like in GofF with the buildup to the tournament-- and then the tournament started and all of the problems started-- and then in the end they fought off the bad people-- and then the year ended!!

I felt like this book is a complete pre-qual to the final book-- like it was the first 30 chapters of Book 7!! I feel as if we were reallllllly left hanging in this book way more than in the past books!!

Just my 2 cents!! Please do not cast any spells upon me!!
I do agree with you. As I stated earlier, this should have been called "Harry Potter and the Large Amount of Backstory." It wasn't the most "interesting" of the 6 (I kinda liked book 5, thank you very much...) but felt it was a necessary evil.

FYI... if you go to Mugglenet, there is the second half of the webmaster's interview with JKR posted. VERRRRRRYYYYY interesting part about RAB and Sirius' mirror. http://www.mugglenet.com/jkrinterview2.shtml
It's kinda toward the middle. And she basically shoots down any theory of a H/Hr relationship... which if you couldn't figure out after this book, that's sad. (Though I still hold out for fanfic. )
