Well, now that I think on it... Both senses of the word. There were parts that took my breath away, and parts that I simply stared, thinking, "...wtf?"
Secondly, you are an excellent writer, so I don't want to hear that bullocky from you. ;)
*blush* Thank you.
I love the premise of Harry Potter and books 3, 4, and 5 won my heart...but I was disappointed in 6.
It was kind of switched for me... but only a little. On reading HBP, I realized how suffocating OotP was. It was so long, and dark, and there was so little trust, and... it was kind of a rough read. It languished (as did Harry). Whereas HBP, on the other hand, was proactive, there was a sense of moving forward, and there was trust. Everyone was on the same page.
Of course, I acknowledge that part of that was the fact that I heard on the radio how it ended before reading it.
...OMG. That's terrible. What a snotty little brat (the radio kid).
I was lucky, and managed to remain unspoilered.
...Aw, crap, I have to go to class now. Second half of comment shall come later.
