i've decided to give the Harry Potter books a second chance. I read the first one a few years ago and thought it was awfully simplistic and left no possibilities to the imagination (rather than allow the reader to wonder what was going on, Harry always had to think "Is Snape trying to get the Stone? Did he send Dumbledore away? Did Snape let the Troll in on Halloween?" etc., etc.) I've been assured the books get better, but we'll see
