J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince Review

Overall Rating

The story in this book is a lot darker than the previous ones and opens up more possibilities for the storyline. Relationships are made and there are a few surprises and we learn a few things about Voldemorte

The story isn't quite as enjoyable as the others, the humour seems to be a little darker and we understand the characters more. There is less action in this but this doesn't affect the book much overall.

I really do love Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince although it seems to be orientated more towards adult readers this time. I can't wait for the next book to come out next year. The questions and possibilities for the next book at the end leave you waiting for more. We also learn more about the characters feelings towards each other- not that these weren't fairly clear through the previous few books. Overall this is well worth reading
