It was kind of switched for me... but only a little. On reading HBP, I realized how suffocating OotP was. It was so long, and dark, and there was so little trust, and... it was kind of a rough read.

I was lucky, and managed to remain unspoilered.

...Aw, crap, I have to go to class now. Second half of comment shall come later.
