I must disagree. I was somewhat disappointed in #5. The plot was sort-of pointless, if you think about it. The great mystery of who would die was pretty obvious to me. And for both my wife and myself, there was ZERO emotional reaction when the death did happen. I do like how the books are becoming more mature and sophisticated as Rowling has gone on. I wonder how much of that is intentional or just a result of her maturing as a writer. Now that the kids are 16 or so, I've been wondering if there is some sort of anti-sex hex at Hogwarts! There must be! - jmh _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
