Harry Potter and the Cursed Child

Book Review :

Genre : Fantasy , Fiction , Magic , Young Adult

Synopsis 

It was always difficult being Harry Potter and it isn’t much easier now that he is an overworked employee of the Ministry of Magic, a husband and father of three school-age children.

While Harry grapples with a past that refuses to stay where it belongs, his youngest son Albus must struggle with the weight of a family legacy he never wanted. As past and present fuse ominously, both father and son learn the uncomfortable truth: sometimes, darkness comes from unexpected places.

My Review :

It turned out pretty good . No kidding .

Harry’s a Minister of Magic , Ron’s goofy as usual and Hermione is her usual self .

They have to bond together again in order to take down The Cursed Child ,

Who happens to be Tom’s kid .

A wonder his wand was still working . (Ew , I know )

Albus and Scorpius‘ relationship is heart-rendering .

New Squad Goals .

And Draco is all grown up now . Responsible and stuff instead of wimpy .

Best Moment :

Pssst , Snape appears for a short while and Gods , what a scene . Ron maybe the only guy who made it outta the friendzone but Snape is the only guy who goes through so much after being friendzoned  imo . However I digress . That part was just breath-taking .

Best Character

Scorpius Malfoy .

He’s adorable , fun and all in all very entertaining . Some of his exploits are just amazing .

The Not So Good Part :

The Play Format is pretty different after getting used to all the previous books . But that’s a small obstacle to overcome if ya really wanna read it . (And some parts were pretty different from what I expected )

Best Quote :

“Harry, there is never a perfect answer in this messy, emotional world. Perfection is beyond the reach of humankind, beyond the reach of magic. In every shining moment of happiness is that drop of poison: the knowledge that pain will come again. Be honest to those you love, show your pain. To suffer is as human as to breathe.”

Overall Rating :

Its a nostalgic and enjoyable ride all right . I’d recommend it to every Hp fan out there . But ….its more of a standalone than a sequel

What did ya think ,

Lemme know below

Mistborn – The Final Empire

Genre – Epic Fantasy 

To be honest , I hadn’t heard of this at all . I picked it up by chance at a local bookstore . The synopsis sounded intriguing :

In a world where ash falls from the sky, and mist dominates the night, an evil cloaks the land and stifles all life. The future of the empire rests on the shoulders of a troublemaker and his young apprentice

Got me hooked . Brandon Sanderson accomplishes his work skillfully and masterfully .From an amazing intrinsically crafted magic system to like able characters , this one’s got it all . Packs quite a punch .

It follows the trials of Kelsier , The Survivor of Hathsin and Vin , a young girl whose “Luck” seems to favor her whenever she draws on it .

Adrift with Downtrodden servants , a tyrant God-King and brilliant world-building , it never fails to disappoint . (This ain’t no regular cliche book)

And OH , I almsot forgot

ALLOMANCY !!!

Favorite character

Kelsier , Hands down

Planning Skills , Brilliance , Compassion , Quirks , Combat skills . Certainly one of the best epic fantasy heroes ever .

Favorite Quotes :

“There’s always another secret”

“But you can’t kill me, Lord Tyrant. I represent that one thing you’ve never been able to kill, no matter how hard you try. I am hope.”
