Okay, this is for people who've read the book to say what you want to say, without screwing it up for anyone. If you haven't read the book and don't want it spoiled, don't look at the comments.

Her editor needs to be shot.

All I have to say to defend that is "Merry-faced thief"

I agree that she could have done better on the descriptions of some of the characters she introduced for the first time in this book, Gindelwald undoubtably included, but overall I still say it's very well written. I would have loved to see more of that character.

I... I have no words. The story concept is ok, the world creation and attention to detail are spectacular, but her writing is, and always has been, sub par in my personal opinion.

[musuko]

bah, i like her style.

[jetstream]

Of course her writing is sub-par. No truly great writer has ever really gotten that popular that fast. Mediocrity sells.

It is, however, fantastic mediocrity.

See, that's my thing though, I don't even know that I'd qualify it as mediocre.

I personally just think the writing is crap. Maybe I'm just picky though.
