I'm indifferent to the whole Harry Potter thing. I read the first one, and felt no compulsion to read on. But given my political/philosophical proclivities, I was please to see this at Instapundit:

… here's a blog review that says the book has libertarian themes.

Interesting.

UPDATE!!!: But, you might want to read Natalie Solent about all this first. (Or try Natalie Solent, assuming blogbollocks does its usual with the latest entry.) Don't read that review, she says, it'll spoil it for you.

She says read this.
