And yeah it's such a monstrous doorstopper because it's so clearly the book where she stopped being edited Not even being edited in the line-by-line sense of cutting out cruft, in the big picture sense of "The book should be about one thing and everything should tie into it"

It is literally the book that I finished and said to my self "this is garbage, I have read four books of garbage and I refuse to subject myself to anymore garbage for the sake of staying 'in touch' with culture"
-
in fact on some level the book altered my life by firmly making me decide I don't have to subject myself to something popular just to stay in touch... screw that garbage.

Arent all the first four books just “Philosopher’s Stone but again”?

Feeling very justified in stopping halfway through the series. Also feeling very protective of my ASD bro who found himself in the vulnerable characters of those novels. It was his 1st connection with non-fiction. I am so pissed of on my non-binary and his literal + loving self.
-
Sorry, I meant to say his first connection outside of non-fiction. It's late. You know what I mean.

I stopped giving the books a chance after that book. Not because they're horrible or something like that, just because...they're, like, normal preteen-lit fare, not particularly good, or bad, just standard, with the same themes, same repetitive plots.

that's all the books. She does the same plot but in a different school year. I think that's why people love them, too, because they're so predictable.
