Do I love Harry Potter? Absolutely! Do I love the entire premise of the series? Definitely! Did I love Harry Potter and the Cursed Child? I didn't LOVE it, but I didn't hate it either.
I have read the Harry Potter series at least four times. (And yes, it is nearly time to start again.) I love Harry Potter, and I particularly loved the vivid descriptions that abounded in the books. That being said, I liked the plot, story line and new characters in the Cursed Child. I understand Harry's parenting woes, and since I have raised two children, I totally get that our we misunderstand our children, and they misunderstand us.
If I were watching this as a play, or reading this with a group of students, this play would be amazing, and I do hope to see it very soon, but here I am stuck in my Potter World, and I missed the old ways.
If you are a Potter fan like me, I would recommend that you read the play, but I would also recommend that you see the play as soon as you possibly can. That, I think, will bring back some of the magic.
