Yes, she's nothing like Tolkien or Pullman for lingering descriptions or that kind of poetic beauty - and there's too much "he said" and "she said". But you cannot fault her for pulling off a gripping plot! The characters are much more developed in this one anyway - Harry is much less of a 'pouty Potter'...much less SHOUTING...

I shall avoid telling you too much though
