I finally finished the last book of Harry Potter (well, or at least the latest theater adaptation)! I don't know how to start this review so I'll go directly to the point ... The truth is that Harry Potter and the Cursed Child hasn't convinced me. Don't misunderstand me, I love Harry Potter and all his magical world, I just remember how quickly I devoured the books when they came out, but unlike the other books, for me, this story lacks a lot of originality. Not only I didn't enjoy the play format (sorry but I like descriptions) but above all, I always had the feeling that the story was extremely topical. How many movies, books, and series have already told stories focused on the theme of time travels and the consequences of upsetting the past? I will not say it's a bad book because it's not, but I just missed too much this original and extremely entertaining Harry Potter stories which I learned to read.

Spanish version:
Por fin he leido el ultimo libro de Harry Potter (bueno o al menos la ultima adaptacion de teatro)! No se muy bien por donde empezar esta review asi que ire cara al grano... No me ha convencido. No me ha convencido para nada. Adoro Harry Potter y todo su mundo, devoraba los libros tan solo salir y en ingles para no tener que esperar a la traduccion en espanol pero creo que a diferencia de las otros historias, esta es floja. No solo no me ha gustado el formato obra de teatro (si hechaba de menos las descripciones) sino que ademas la historia me ha parecido extremadamente topica. Cuantas peliculas, libros y series han contado ya el tema de los viajes en el tiempo y en las consequencias de trastocar el pasado? No dire que es un mal libro, porque no lo es, pero simplemente he hechado de menos esas historias de Harry Potter con las que aprendi a leer.

Mohammed Arabey My friend glad to read your review on this one, and agree with you in many things, I love descriptions, but I tried hard to use my imagination here... and yes, it's still feel so different.

Glad to read to you again and still waiting for your English Edition of your book
