Review of 'Harry Potter and the Cursed Child' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
If you think of this as a standalone book, you'll be left very disappointed. As a story from the Potter universe adapted for the stage ... I thought it was fantastic and I can't wait to watch it in person.
In fact, as a story set two decades in the future of book 7, I think it has matured very well -- An adult Harry with adult issues. Perhaps it resonates with me more because I grew up as a child reading and obsessing over everything Potter (books 4-7 bought and finished the day they were released!), and now I'm an adult too.
I won't say more. Read it!
