harry potter 8 got very bad reception
this wasn't a case where fans tastes grew to exceed the media they once liked
and this was not some retroactive distancing from rowling
harry potter 8 is simply very very not good.
the plot of harry potter 8 is the same as the episode of fairly oddparents where timmy's dad becomes a dictator
its best adaptation is the wikipedia plot summary
if you were a former harry potter kid and you've been a bit curious about the once-desired eighth book, don't worry: it sucks
people who once foamed at the mouth for this book and bought it on day 1 simply could not read through it
the good news is that there already existed a good theatrical adaptation by team starkid
