I think that J. K. Rowling is an awesome writer because she has written 7 books in the Harry Potter series, and she writes in a voice that makes you forget everything else.

Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince
I liked the book Harry Potter and the half blood prince because it is a perilous book with tons of action. Harry is still going through the five stages of grief, because Sirius has died. Then, he and Dumbledore go on a dangerous journey to find The 4 remaining horcruxes of Lord Voldemort. Harry finds out more about Voldemort's family and past by taking 3 or 4 trips into the Pensieve. With Hermione and Ron, he fights the most dangerous of people, like Fenrir Greyback and other evil Death Eaters that have their minds set on murder.

Okay, I've read Mick Harte was Here for Years, and I've read Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince twice, but I never made the connection that Harry was going through the five stages of grief. Brilliant!
ReplyDeleteCan you give us evidence of one (or more) of the stages?
