After about seven months of re-reading the entire Harry Potter series, I have finally finished the seventh and final book. I've been immersed in that little world for so long now that I'm a bit sad to have finished--especially knowing there are no future installments to look forward to. But there are still two more movies to anxiously await.
Impressively, I managed to survive all these months without hearing any spoilers, unless you count the graffiti on the Mount Holyoke sidewalks that said, "Voldemort Lives" and "Harry Dies". But I didn't put too much stock in the Sidewalk Literary Critic, as I've seen cartoon penises drawn on these same sidewalks.
I won't spoil the ending here, in case there could possibly be anyone out there further behind the rest of the world than me. I will say that I am proud to have correctly predicted two major pieces of the story and pleasantly surprised that JK Rowling had a couple tricks up her sleeve that I never would have seen coming.
The very end was a bit disappointing, but that's to be expected. It must have been very difficult to wrap up a seven book series, and I think she did pretty well.
