The title speaks for itself
Taken from my livejournal (Harry Potter review). Just for the sake of it.

I really hate all the fuss going around that book, but I am a fan since the first book, so I just had to read it. Again, I really don’t like all the things that go with the last Potter installment: book leak, the merchandise, hysteria, films, action figures and even (plastic surgerised?) J.K.Rowling.
Far from being perfect, but still, much better than 5th and 6th, which had no plot at all. Really, am I the only one who can’t find a plot inside that huge 5th book? The only thing that was really important was Sirius’ death. The 6th was better, but without a good plot.
Now, we have something better in the book 7, but maybe too much stuff for one book. What I’m saying is, some of the stuff could fit into book 5 and 6. That way, 1)Those books could have more of a plot and 2)Some things would fit better into the book 7 (Snitch and flesh memory, the stone, the ring or similar stuff).
But in any case, book 7 was good. I loved the tale of three brothers, I loved Dumbledore’s story, I loved Snape’s story. Hey, I love Snape, I’ve always loved him, he’s my favourite character. Too bad we didn’t see much of him in the book. I loved Hogwarts battles, and the part when Harry’s facing his destiny… “
