I should probably explain this. Like <i>Azkaban</i> it's a strange mix between light and dark tonally. However, <i>Azkaban</i> is probably the best critically received installment in the series. Most people just forget <i>Goblet</i>. Harry and Ron look like grunge superstars, Hermionie (who is 14) has an illegal relationship with a grown Bulgarian man, Harry eats a magical vegetable and electrocutes mermaids... it's just weird. One of my personal favorites in the series though.
