This was not what I was expecting at all, but it is Harry Potter so I was going to enjoy it any way. This was a play not a novel and you definitely need to understand that going in. This was not written by JKR. This is John Tiffany and Jack Thorne with JKR's story idea. This world and these characters hold a special place in so many people's hearts that another dip into the Wizarding World is bound to cause controversy. That being said, this was written for an older audience and a play going one at that. Yes this is for the fans, but again, it was not written by JKR so it is not going to be the same. It is not the amazing magical world of the original seven books. We are taken to this new era in the Wizarding World post war and it is fascinating to see the story unfold. There were a bunch of aspects of the plot that had me baffled, but I honestly enjoyed every minute of reading this.
I laughed and I bawled. Anyone who knows me and has read this knows just what broke me. But at the same time I'm so thankful for JKR, Jack Thorne, and John Tiffany for giving me that little bit, even if it broke my heart to read it.
