I read Harry Potter last year for the first time last year. The first book is great. The second book is okay. The third book is... meh. Everything after that is fucking terrible. My wife and kid are grinding their way through the books now and I've refused to read Order of the Phoenix when my wife gets sick of it because it's just so goddamn awful.

JK Rowling is a monarchist starfucker who is all about the proles knowing their place. I wasn't nearly as focused on her bad ideas about gender; her bad ideas about society were more than enough.

That scene at the end of the last movie? Where Harry and Malfoy are like waving at each other at the train station?

Fuck Harry Potter.
