Is Rowling Losing Her Touch

The books got too intense for me at the end of the 4th one. Although I really don't mind her getting Harry more involved into his "destiny", she just did some stuff that's really hard to NOT get mad about. Sad

She already has the whole thing planned and written out. She's just putting it into novel context. She's doing fine. I mean, everyone should have known from the beginning that the books were going to get darker and more intense. If that's a problem, don't read them. Not too hard to put the book down and walk away. You have to deal with what's happening in a more mature way than ranting about how "stupid, lame and crappy" her writing because the fact of the matter is if she weren't a good writer then she wouldn't have raked in millions.

BTW: thanks fallen for the ADVICE TO THOSE PEOPLE WHO LIKE TO RUIN IT FOR THE REST OF THE PEOPLE WHO HAVEN'T FINISHED THE BOOKS YET

I think it's more that the booka are changing, getting more intense. I do have my complaints about book 6, After reading it a week ago, I still don't have a full opinion on it. It did bring up more questions that JK nor has to answer in book 7.

I had who dies and who kills 'em part spoiled for me. I started a post about how long people think it'll take for them to finish it and one person replied _____ Kills ______. I got so mad and they kept being stubborn about it. And sadly no one else seemes to be ticked off at 'em. <_<

I still love Harry Potter though :wub:

rowling can't be losing her touch because she never [i] had [/i] a touch. she just hit on a subject that everybody liked and now that it's changing a bit, fans are going to filter away.

but not me. i love the harry potter books. have done since the year 1999. ^^

Now that I've truely compared the book with the others I'd say that wasn't the best book in the series,the plot kinda seemed rushed...compare,and thee shall know what I mean.
