I have to agree with Eddie Ching's comments. I thoroughly enjoyed the
first three Harry Potter books but was quite disappointed with number
four. There certainly seems to be a general lack of character development and for me this contributed to diminished motivation for
reading. Sadly I felt as if this was a 'formula' book. ie. Having found
a winning formula the author is dishing up more of the same in a
reorganised manner. Perhaps Harry cannot effectively last for the
proposed seven books.
