Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by JK Rowling

I was never a Harry Potter maniac but I’ve read and enjoyed the whole series. One of them got me through my first week of quitting smoking (and I heartily endorse them for that purpose).

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows was a fitting finale for the series. She really tied the ends together and gave plenty of opportunities for joyful tears. I particularly liked Neville Longbottom’s contribution to the ultimate showdown. My only complaint is that I’d have appreciated a longer “wrap-up” because I was sorry to see the characters go and wanted to relish their happiness a little longer. I’d also have liked more Harry/Ginny interaction because what little there was was so nicely done, but perhaps that’s the secret to a good romance.
