Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince (Book 6)

very simple paper engineering 2010-08-27

Reviewer: D. Shafer

Even though the front & rear covers of this book states that it features "pull-tabs, pop-ups and lift-the-flaps", I do not consider this to be a typical pop-up/movable book.

There are only "two very simple pop-ups, one pull-tab and one spin-the-wheel" in this book. As a pop-up book/movable book collector, I'm sorry that I bought this book.

To be fair, I rated this book 4 stars because I don't think that it's fair to judge this book solely by focusing on just the pop-ups. Since the majority of reviews give the book 5 stars, it sounds like most Harry Potter fans find the story and illustrations to be very enjoyable. If I rated this book solely on the pop-ups, I would give it one star.

If you are not a Harry Potter fan, and you are buying this book to add to your pop-up book collection, you will probably be disappointed.

Great Book 2010-08-14

Any fan of the series will love this book. Just make sure you bought the last one to start reading once you've finished this one.

Great listen at a great price! 2010-08-03

These cds are fabulous for family car trips. The Narrator, Jim Dale, is amazing. He makes Rowling's work an audible masterpiece. Better than a video because the whole car gets to listen in (and watch the scenery as well.) Time goes by so quickly, it eliminates the 'are we there yet' question. Product arrived quickly and in the condition described. Great value as well, less than half the retail cost.

This was another great book from J.K. Rowling and I was looking for a hardbound copy. There were several listed and I chose one of the many. This one arrived almost a month after placing the order and while the dustcover was in almost new condition, the top of the closed book had cola spills all over the top of the pages and several were absorbed down the pages. While it didn't interfere with the reading, I am certain had I read there were cola watermarks I would probably have purchased from someone else.

The Harry Potter book (story) is, as everyone knows, fantastic. But the hardcover book itself is a crappy piece that would have been better off printed in paperback.It doesn't help that I was sent a used library copy.
