YAY!!!! Someone else actually liked it! (For the most part, it sounds like?)
Voldemort's supposed inability to love always struck me as unrealistic and one-dimensional in the books, but I've made peace with JKR's black and white world view and wasn't expecting more from the play. So I was fine with Delphi being a throwaway plot device (and perhaps an authorial send-up of fic tropes). For me, the play was all about Albus and Scorpius, and their characterizations made it worth the read. Also nice to see Draco humanized while remaining true to character. My Malfoy love is bursting at the seams!
