And we had a massive argument - 1/2 of the people absolutely hated HBP while the other 1/2 said it was their favorite book.<br/><br/>What did you all think about it?<br/><br/>I can say that I was arguing alongside the people who didn't like the book. I was very, very disappointed. In my opinion, the book was less of the magic and adventure that I started reading the books for. There was too much about relationships and the characters all seemed like little kids having temper tantrums to keep the plot going. It was a lot like some crappy high school drama, in my opinion. I mean, there were parts that I liked but they didn't fit into a big picture like everything did in the first few books.<br/><br/>What surprised me on FA was that the two sides were complete extremes - no one seemed indifferent about HBP. There were the people who absolutely loathed HBP and wanted to murder JKR and there were people who claimed it was their favorite book in the series. There was no in-between. <br/><br/>So... any opinions? <!-- google_ad_section_end --> </font></td></tr><tr><td valign="bottom" align="left" bgcolor="666699" class="windowbg" colspan="3"><table width="100%" border="0"><tr><td align="left"><font size="1">« <i>Last Edit:</i> May 24, 2006, 12:07pm by <a href="/index.cgi?action=viewprofile&user=abaratianxslasher" class="group0">AbaratianXSlasher</a> »</font></td><td align="right"><font size="1"><a href="/index.cgi?board=snapey&action=display&thread=58&page=1#524">Link to Post</a> - <a href="#">Back to Top</a> </font><font size="1"><img src="http://s1.images.proboards.com/ip.gif" alt="IP: " border="0"/> Logged</font></td></tr></table><font size="1"><hr width="100%" size="1" class="hr">My fanfiction: <a href="http://www.fanfiction.net/u/45645/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.fanfiction.net/u/45645/</a> or <a href="http://www.fanfiction.net/~ladymyotismon" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">http://www.fanfiction.net/~ladymyotismon</a><br/><br/><a href="http://www.pickle-green.com/egraphics/main.php?id=eggs" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://www.boomspeed.com/egraphics/kju32.gif" alt="[image] " border="0"/></a><br/><a href="http://www.elementsgraphics.net/index.php?id=eggs" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://www.boomspeed.com/egraphics/a93l6.gif" alt="[image] " border="0"/></a></font></td></tr></table></td></tr><tr><td colspan="2" width="100%" class="titlebg" bgcolor="003366"><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0" width="100%"><tr><td width="50%"> <a href="javascript:popWindow('searchpopup&board=snapey&thread=58');"><img src="http://s1.images.proboards.com/search2.gif" alt="[Search This Thread]" border="0"/></a></td><td width="50%" align="right"><a href="/index.cgi?board=snapey&action=sendtopic&thread=58"><img src="http://s1.images.proboards.com/buttons/sendtopic.gif" alt="[Send Topic To Friend]" border="0"/></a> <a href="/index.cgi?board=snapey&action=print&thread=58"><img src="http://s1.images.proboards.com/buttons/print.gif" alt="[Print]" border="0"/></a> </td></tr></table></td></tr></table></td></tr></table> <table width="100%" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" border="0"><tr><td align="right"><select id="forumjump" onchange="if(this.options[this.selectedIndex].value) window.location=this.options[this.selectedIndex].value;"><option value="">Forum Jump</option><option value="">--------------------</option><option value="/index.cgi">» Home</option><option value="">--------------------</option><option value="/index.cgi#holla">» WELCOME</option><option value="">--------------------</option><option value="/index.cgi?board=secret">- The Lost Souls</option><option value="/index.cgi?board=about">- The Cryptic Revealed</option><option value="/index.cgi?board=info">- Tartar holes</option><option value="/index.cgi?board=clay">- Mold the Future</option><option value="/index.cgi?board=askandlearn">- The Darkness can be so Lonely...</option><option value="/index.cgi?board=avisigs">- "You can dream, create, design and build the most wonderful place in the world, but it requires p...</option><option value="/index.cgi?board=idwow">- Inspire Dreams</option><option value="">--------------------</option><option value="/index.cgi#northernlights">» His Dark Materials Trilogy</option><option value="">--------------------</option><option value="/index.cgi?board=tgc">- His Dark Materials Trilogy</option><option value="/index.cgi?board=hdmm">- Movie Discussions</option><option value="/index.cgi?board=othersites">- "So Lyra and her daemon turned away from the world they were born in, and looked toward the sun, ...</option><option value="">--------------------</option><option value="/index.cgi#magicwands">» The Harry Potter Series</option><option value="">--------------------</option><option value="/index.cgi?board=books12345">- Fear of a name increases fear of a thing itself." - Albus Dumbledore</option><option value="/index.cgi?board=snapey">- The Half-Blood Prince</option><option value="/index.cgi?board=book7">- "It is important to fight, and fight again, and keep fighting, for only then can evil be kept at ...</option><option value="/index.cgi?board=conspirehehe">- Theories and Discussions</option><option value="/index.cgi?board=moviesforbooks">- "I can teach you how to bottle fame, brew glory, even stopper death — if you aren't as big a bunc...</option><option value="/index.cgi?board=ssm"> --- The Sorcerer's Stone Movie</option><option value="/index.cgi?board=cosm"> --- The Chamber of Secrets Movie</option><option value="/index.cgi?board=gofm"> --- The Goblet of Fire Movie</option><option value="/index.cgi?board=poam"> --- The Prisoner of Azkaban</option><option value="/index.cgi?board=sharesites">- "I don't go looking for trouble.
