I read the books this year because I wanted to feel pain, basically, and I wanted to be justified in disliking Harry Potter. I was not disappointed. However, I still don’t understand how the fuck the end of the book worked. It was so harebrained and convoluted and sloppy as fuck that I don’t know what actually happened. Am I stupid or was it a bad ending? And what the fuck happened? How did they actually kill Voldemort?

    if you write a book that captures the imagination of millions of kids and doesn’t contain your ideology in it, you’ve written a good book.

    Her book is neoliberal as fuck though

        Well yes, but that wasn’t the point you were making, at least I thought. You said that what made the book good was that it captured the imagination of millions of kids and it doesn’t contain your ideology. I was saying it does contain her ideology, which is why there was no real revolution or anything in it, and Voldemort lost on a technicality.
