J loves GoF. Mostly because of the action, though. Plus, he's never read the books, so doesn't know what's supposed to go on.
Her writing just isn't very powerful. It's funny how I didn't care about any of the deaths, even though they were so built up, and it's a kid's book or whatever, so it was a big deal, but then in fanfiction sometimes just offhand lines about someone dying can get to me, because the characters are so much more real in that context.
Although, seriously, who would care about Sirius's death? I mean, I'm sure JKR liked him, but did she unintentionally make him an asshole? She should have beta-readers in the fandom or something. Ha, that'd be interesting.
