just finished reading...

The last installment of the Harry Potter series. This book is a great finale--tying up loose ends in a satisfying manner. Instead of returning for their seventh year at Hogwarts, Harry, Ron, and Hermione seek to fulfill Dumbledore's quest. Most of the book is on the run, trying to escape detection of the Death Eaters and other newly instituted organizations aimed at finding Harry. I liked that the characters stayed true, that they weren't suddenly transformed with other characteristics and traits than they'd been given throughout the previous books. And I like that my body is still tense, half an hour after I finished reading it. I was that into it. I'm interested to see the final movie, to see how Snape's actions are shown, instead of reading about him.
