Edit : I say it is much better than (canon) Harry Potter.

Reading it right now for the second time ; it has big pros and big cons. it's a little sad no one is commenting in here aside from me.
the pros :
here Harry Potter doesn't get pushed around like in the Canon version : he is equipped with science and logics.
the cons :
it leaves the (hetero) reader hoping for love between Harry Potter and Hermione, instead the author chooses murky plots involving Draco Malfoy.
