How could you like the books so much? They don't even make sense. Rowling's writings leave far too many loopholes.
Here's an example: When Harry, Hermione, and Ron are wandering around lost.
Like, why do they only stay in Britain the whole time? Why did they teleport around in forests eating mushrooms, when they could've just disapparated near a McDonald's and grabbed a cheeseburger? Why not go hide in Russia in a hotel or something?
I guess that would make too much sense.
Really, the amount of stupidity in the wizard community in these books has me rooting for the muggles. Why the **** do they still use owls, which take days to send messages, when the muggles have invented cell phones? Apparently muggle technologies kick the shit out of their magic bullshit, because muggles can talk to each other instantly, at any time, anywhere in the world, while wizards have to send owls and notes around hunting each other down.
Which brings up another example: How does a bunch of wizards in Britain seem to think they can take over the entire world, including muggles? Have they forgotten that muggles have nukes and guns?
This book is set in 1997, and Rowling has it set up where the world is much like it is today, only there is a hidden magical community.
The World War II theme was also annoying and blatantly obvious. Mudbloods = Jews. Eliminating anyone but "purebloods" = Holocaust.
This brings up another thing: The books say that the number of purebloods has drastically thinned, and mudbloods / half-bloods far outnumber them. How, then, does a group of purebloods manage to take control of the entire wizarding world and get the mudbloods / half-bloods, which significantly outnumber their own numbers, to happily go along with them? The Jews weren't exactly a majority in Nazi Germany.
Where are the wizarding communities of the United States, China, Russia, the Middle East, et cetera in all of this?
