If you have been growing up with Harry, Ron and Hermione, you are probably still waiting for your Hogwarts letter that, for sure, got lost in the mail. 
 As a BIG fan of the series I've been waiting for a sequel forever! Between fear of being disappointed and excitement I pre-ordered Harry Potter and the Curse Child, months before the publishing. I want in it without knowing anything about it, even though spoilers were available everywhere, I've been a good kid and I resisted every temptations. Maybe that's what I did wrong. 
 I published a post about the things you should know before reading it, you can find it HERE. 
 Since It's hard to talk about the plot of the play without spoiling bits. I will just give you the start point of the story. The story picks up from Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows epilogue. Nineteen years after the Battle of Hogwarts our heroes, now grown up, are at platform 9 3/4 to send off their kids. From there the story skips forward to Albus, Harry's kid, forth year of school. The play concentrated itself on the relationship between father and son, Harry and Albus. 
 I'm just going to give you some clues about the plot: Time-turner, Cedric, Triwizard Cup. 
 Let me say I was really happy to see our heros back, some even from the dead, and was surprised with the new characters. I loved Scorpius Malfoy, he is a good mix of intelligence and humor, on the other hand Albus Potter felt obnoxious to me and as stupid as his father, sorry Harry. 
 The plot was kind of boring and felt like a bad fanfiction from start to finish. After finishing the Harry Potter series we all said good byes to the characters or made up our own story, I would have like to see their kids in Hogwarts, playing quidditch, going to potion class and making some mischief, we don't get any of that again someone is messing with magic to bring back You-Know-Who. 
 I think that most of my problem with this book was in fact that it isn't a book, but a play the only way to judge it honestly is to see it on stage. As a read it was not so entertaining. 
 3/5 STARS
