Review of 'Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

HP #6 is possibly my least fave of the series (so far), yet I can't tell you why. The plot is advanced quite a bit, it's full of action—there's just something that doesn't sit as well with me. In any event, I still have to give it 4 of 5 ⭐, because I couldn't put it down. [Only HP #3 gets 5 ⭐ from me (so far)].
