I'm about to start Harry Potter and the cursed child. Is it worth the read? No spoilers please

Question

Karla · Accepted Answer

For some reason, a play is distracting for me to read!

Deb · Answer

I hated the format. I did not like the plot. I was disappointed all the way around.

Brooke · Answer

It's terrible.

Fiona · Answer

I am rather annoyed by that whole thing. I finally thought I could get some tickets to the show, only to discover that unless I wanted an obscured view it would cost us (for two) about £300 going up to £600. That was trying to book tickets to both halves on the same day. Non-consecutive days boyish save us much money in travel or hotel to sodding London.

It’s a dark read and you have to appreciate it as a play. Besides it follows the Harry Potter storyline. Must read if a fan.
