I wasn’t too sure about this one at first. I pre ordered it months ago as I have always loved JK’s books. I was reading it on a kindle, and like many other readers I had difficulty with the on line chats format, and eventually swapped between my kindle and my iPad to read them. This made it quite difficult to “get into” the story, especially as the constant inane chats seemed unnecessary and quite frankly, boring. After a while I realised that that is exactly what these online chats are really like and that they were an essential part of the narrative.
It took a while, but the magic did kick in and by the time I was at 25% I was hooked and couldn’t put it down. I’m sure it will be a long wait until the next instalment so my only problem now is what to read next.
