Blurb:
Based on an original new story by J.K. Rowling, Jack Thorne and John Tiffany, a new play by Jack Thorne, Harry Potter and the Cursed Child is the eighth story in the Harry Potter series and the first official
Harry Potter story to be presented on stage.
It was
always difficult being Harry Potter and it isn’t much easier now that he
is an overworked employee of the Ministry of Magic, a husband and
father of three school-age children.
While Harry grapples with a
past that refuses to stay where it belongs, his youngest son Albus must
struggle with the weight of a family legacy he never wanted. As past and
present fuse ominously, both father and son learn the uncomfortable
truth: sometimes, darkness comes from unexpected places.
My thoughts:
I just do not know what people find in this book. I read some YA and this is not the best example of the genre. I was totally bored from the begging to the end. the fan fiction episodes were so dull. I did not like the romance. The family dynamic was the only interesting part of the book. And again, I did not find the relationship between the sisters so believable. When you went through a lot with a person (especially when it is your twin sister) you just do not forget about her the next day you are in college. Either they were apart from the start or the concept of sisterly love is somehow wrong.
Did not liked it, do not recommend it and it does not worth all the hype.
yep, some books are definitely not worth the hype
