G. The Example Of Review Text:
I.
Review Paragraph:
Harry Potter: Order
of the Phoenix
I
absolutely love the Harry Potter series, and all of the books will always hold
a special place in my heart.
I
have to say that of all of the books, however, this was not my favorite.
When
the series began it was as much of a "feel good" experience as a huge
mug of hot cocoa. The stories were bright, fast-paced, intriguing, and
ultimately satisfying.
Order
of the Phoenix is a different kind of book. In some instances this works...you
feel a whole new level of intensity and excitement by the time you get to the
end. I was truly moved by the last page. Other times the book just has a
slightly dreary, depressing feel. The galloping pace of the other books has
slowed to a trot here, and parts of it do seem long, as if we're reading all
about Harry "just hanging out" instead of having his usual
adventures. Reading in detail about Harry cleaning up an old house, for example
- housekeeping is still housekeeping, magical or no, and I'm not very
interested in doing it or reading about other people doing it.
A
few other changes in this book - the "real" world comes much more in
to play rather than the fantasy universe of the previous books, and Harry has
apparently been taken off his meds. I know that he had a lot to be grumpy in
this book, especially with being a teenager and all, but the sudden change in
his character seemed too drastic. He goes from being a warm-hearted,
considerate person to someone who will bite his best friend's heads off over
nothing. It just seemed like it didn't fit with his character, like he turned
into a walking cliché of the "angry teen" overnight.
The
"real" story seemed to happen in the last 1/3 of the book, and this
part I loved. I actually liked the ending (and yes, I cried!) As sad as it was.
It packed a punch and it made me care about the story even more. Still a really
good book, with some editing it would have been great.
