I don't think the book is very good because, well, the characters are boring. Everyone that is good has pratically the same qualities: kindness, friendship, etc. and the bad people are always the same. They are the same people, just with different names. Nothing really changes at all in the characters, aka character development, ahem. There is really no different plot, either: all the books have the same thing, the Voldemort and the stuff. The books are going to go on until someone finally has the guts to kill Voldemort. I mean, he meets up with him five times, and doesn't do anything? Help us...
Anyway, everyone is fantasising over nothing. I don't get why this book is so great. Rowling pratically copied someone's idea...that's not great, people. In my school some 2nd grader read all the HP books and got all these points for reading (AR, you read a book, depending on how many questions you get right, you get points), but is reading HP going to do you any good? Yeah, entertainment...but if you were reading HP and then decided "OH! I want to write something like this..." there's really no more imagination left.
SIGNING OFF!
