I don't know why people are saying 'it's so obvious JKR didn't write most of this' because I think her style is all over it - the very fact that this play (which is meant to be viewed on stage) can be just as easily read like a book tells me JKR had a lot of input.ДЄlso, it's funny. I don't usually love to read plays, especially modern ones, but this one is very readable because the dialogue is wonderful. Right away it's going to be something unlike what we've seen before. Because this is something different - and I'm happy about it.ДЇirst, of course, it's a play. Separate the two in your mind, and you have a better chance of liking it. If you feel there's a gap where something HP is missing, then I don't think this will fill it. However, if you went crazy needing more from the HP series, you'll probably be disappointed by this.

The thought of extending a series I loved so much actually made me NOT want to read this. To be honest, I never wanted another Harry Potter book. I guess it's just what you're hoping for. It does not feel like an eighth Harry Potter book at all there's a real disconnect between this play and the other seven novels. Aside from being a play, it's also a more mature, character-driven, less magical story. Harry Potter and the Cursed Child has a completely different vibe. I'd love to see this story play out on stage. I completely get why many HP fans will be disappointed with this, but I have to admit: I really enjoyed it.
