I wish JKR weren't such a turd because this is just as magical and whimsical and warm as ever. she's really sullied her own legacy. that said I did knock the rating down a bit for the fatphobia, which just gets more egregious each time I reread this series.

Animal death of a mythical creature. And listen, eating a vomit-flavored Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Bean was one of the most disgusting things that's ever happened to me so I'm counting it as a content warning!!!
