Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - Scholastic Version 

No spoilers… I promise.

After I have flipped the last page of this book, I felt a deep sense of disbelief and loss.

It was over.

The series, which I have followed for years, was finally over.

All the questions that were burning in my mind weren’t answered, but on the whole I absolutely loved this book!  I felt all kinds of emotions with this book and so far, only J.K. Rowling has managed to do that to me with a book.  If I remember correctly, my eyes welled up about three times in this book.

Usually, she does it only once.  But with this book, I cried three times.

I can’t say I loved the epilogue.  I thought it could have been better.  But on the whole it wasn’t so bad.

The overall story was amazing.  Humor, angst, adventure, drama, action and, of course, magic, was splashed all over the pages of this book.  J.K. Rowling is simply one of a kind.  I was so proud and so impressed with her to have written such a wonderful, engaging tale of a small, scrawny, bespectacled boy who would carry the weight of the world on his shoulders.

I absolutely feel sorry for those who haven’t read this series.  The movies do not contain a tenth of the wonder and magic of the books.

I can’t say much since that will totally spoil everything for some people, but my mind got to thinking after finishing the book…

Somehow, in some way or another, there is a Lord Vol

Ooops!  I meant You-Know-Who, in all of us.

Sorry.  I forgot the name’s taboo.  *Wink

  1. I thought the plot was fairly complete. What did you think was not properly explained?

    i have newfound respect for snape.

    it was quite an emotional read for me as well…. it felt like a chapter of my life closed after i read the last sentence.

    can’t wait how they will visualize this book on screen though you’re right when u said they’re not as good as the book.

    I watched Order of the Phoenix na and I was underwhelmed. I thought didn’t hold a candle to the book. As for Deathly Hallows… what can I say, it was a fitting ending to a wonderful series. It was action-packed from the start (as in page 1 pa lang you’re being drawn into it na).

    I don’t really mind th epilogue but I thought it could have been better. Daw bitin but I think it had a sense of finality in it. Hopefully the movie version can give justice to just how good this book was. Hopefully. :)
