I'll grant that's a possibility... because from looking at some of it I'll say that the only person capable of writing a scene such a particular long-winded fashion is Rowling herself. As usual, the beginning does suck you in with its interesting sequence of events but mediocre writing style. I think this one was written so that the movie for #7 could contain everything in the book... the scenes are described in such detail that the filmmaker need only put all the items in their right spots and film the scene. Which makes for rather dull reading, when an hour of reading encompasses 15 minutes of realtime events.
