This book is very strange. I find myself cringing often, but I also enjoy it, as though the insufferable changed Harry Potter and his academic muggle science is more of an exploration of the wizarding world from a scientific perspective rather than an actual story.

I’m not sure how I feel about this so far. I heard this came highly recommended even for a novel regardless of its origin as a Harry Potter fanfic, but the beginnings are a bit cringe/unrealistic as Harry spouts off advanced vocabulary to prove how smart/scientific he is.
