I'm currently about halfway through the Deathly Hallows book and am thoroughly enjoying it. It does indeed grab you and insist that you stay in the bath an extra 5 or 10 minutes in order that you can finish the current chapter... and perhaps peek at the next one. ;)
However, I have to say that unless something miraculous happens in the second half of the book that turns it all around, that I have to the conclusion that Harry Potter himself is a bit a of whiny loner who's really not all that good at magic. And what's more, his leadership skills are highly questionable. Who could blame Ron for getting frustrated and storming off after months of aimlessly disapparating here and there all over the country to avoid the Death Eaters. After all, Harry really never had a plan and then when he finally decides to do something it ends up nearly getting them killed - just like Hermione said it would all along!
Let's just put it this way, I certainly wouldn't have picked him for my team during a family Softball game.
