I have, it's definately a downer at times but I think a very interesting read.

I started to recently but I really disliked it so I stopped. In particular, the opening scenes where the pregnant woman is tutoring the hispanic woman...I know it sounds ridiculous but I teach ESL and I just finished studying linguistics, and the conversations with the hispanic woman seemed so absurd to me, not to mention the big shocker that comes in the first couple chapters, I just couldn't take the book seriously and put it down to re-read HP5, which I enjoyed much much more, even the second time around! :D

I really liked it! It's slow in places...but I like the "Barthowmew Theory"--how everything is connected. I think it would make a really good movie....and yet, I think they'd butcher it as a movie.
