Reviewing the Harry Potter series is hard because this is a reread and so the big reveals aren't nearly as exciting as the first time. Book 6 reveals a lot about Voldemort, his past, his powers and his vulnerabilities which is beyond fascinating the first time round. Harry's obsession with Malfoy does get a bit old and Ron and Hermione's constant bickering is tedious to say the least. Ultimately it is still an interesting read due to the insight the reader receives in regards to the larger story as whole.
