Status Updates From Harry Potter: La Collection...

And having Harry in the Tri-Wizard Tournament seems a giant oversight by Dumbledore. On this re-read, Harry also is no regular boy with tumultuous emotions regarding girls, and seems more effeminate. But it is a kid's book and it's written by a lady. And Snape is loathesome, despite whatever cuck sacrifice. The contrived plot of Ron hating on Harry also seems completely ingenuine. My least favorite book so far. (2/2)

In Book 4 now, with an adult tone, especially with the Voldemort opening chapter with a Harry witnessing a murder. This books seems a lot more contrived, with having Barty Crouch Jr. disguised as Mad-Eye Moody seems like a giant plothole that the greatest wizard, Dumbledore, did not notice the difference. And that Jr. could have such advanced magic even despite being confined. (1/2)

I'm on chapter 3 of the first book
