The Deathly Hallows


Planning to spend Friday night waiting in line until 12:01am - kinda sad.
Having your plans changed and spending the weekend at a cottage with the need to be social - new plan needed.
Driving 2 hours to the nearest town during one of the most beautiful days of the summer - dedication.

I finished the book on Monday night and....and...I don't know what to say. I feel that JK Rowling did a tremendous job tying up all the loose ends and answering everyone's questions. I especially liked being able to see "19 Years Later" and having a glimpse. It is all a little bittersweet though...no more cheering Harry on in his exploits, or laughing at the Weasley twins' highjinx...I wonder how JK Rowling feels. Perhaps like a parent letting go of now-grown up child - she's done all the nurturing she can do, now she has to let go....

Now, all us Muggles have to look forward to is the movies. I think the 7th movie will be a blockbuster - so much action! Can't wait!
