I just finished Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince a few moments ago and my first reaction to the book was disappointment. Not at all what I was expecting and not in a good way.

It's not so much that it was a bad book, but it felt thrown together. It pretty much takes lots of information that could have easily been fit into the other five books, tries to make a book of it and doesn't give itself enough legs to stand on by itself. I liked all the info that was given, was sad at the character death, but it read differently than her others. I didn't connect with the characters as much as I have in the past. And there's a bit too much teen romance for my taste (the word "snogging" is on almost every single page toward the middle to end of the book). Oh well...
