How very odd.
Sep. 7th, 2004 07:55 pmIt's come up on a couple of discussion lists again... time travel, apparently, really bewilders a lot of HP fans.
And yet, PoA seems to be a widespread favorite.
I am puzzled. Are these two massive groups of people -- those who like PoA and those who really, really don't understand one of the critical components of the plot -- disparate? Or is it all the rest of the book that pleases those who like it? (I certainly hope those who praise the "tight plotting" do understand the time travel. That's one of the most carefully done pieces.)
