Actually, before I make myself useful, a couple things about the new Harry Potter book. They aren't specific, but they might spoil a little. I made the following comments to a friend of mine on Saturday:
As a -- let's be charitable -- skeptic of the educational establishment, you're going to love the new Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher.
The book also continues and expands on GoF's ["GoF" is "Goblet of Fire", the previous book in the series] press-skepticism theme.
Instapundit points to this review which goes a little deeper (though Reynolds doesn't consider it spoiler material, I do) in discussing libertarian themes of the book.
For the record, I'm about half-way through. I'll probably read a little more today, but most of my reading will be school-related.
