Done!
Yay! Going to sleep now…while I’m not entirely happy with every single thing JK Rowling made happen in the book, I do think she’s a freaking genius. Hope you all are enjoying your books!

I’m finished too. Wow. What a rollercoaster of a ride. I think it was brilliant. I’m a bit too overwhelmed to discuss it now but I’ll be back!
Me too - only got it today as ended up too busy yesterday. Not my favourite of the books, but tied up a lot of ends better than I expected. It made me cry - in the late 300’s so you can work out which bit!
Need a few days to let it sink in I think.
Done! I really liked it, but I think I won’t be picking up the series again for a while.
I’m left completely…. underwhelmed. I hate to say it, but I think I was disappointed. It was so bitsy piecey. I mean, I did like it, and it made me cry in all the right places, and I took the right messages from it, but, I don’t know. Is there a diplomatic anf complimentary way of saying “I didn’t like it?”
I finished it too. I loved it, and it tied up so much. How she managed to keep all those threads straight during 7 books amazes me. I did think the last chapter was a bit much, but I’ll forgive her. After all, it is a children’s book and needs to have a nice fairytale ending. LOL
I liked a lot of things about it, and thought they were well done, but I was disappointed with what she did with a few characters. I agree that the very last chapter was too treacley for my taste. Overall, I enjoyed it.
I’ll be popping back more later.
I think the ending was perfect. I don’t care what anyone says. Good things can and do happen and I was glad to see it happen to the boy who lived under the stairs. I didn’t think it was childish at all.
I finished it this afternoon, and am going back to re-read the last 100 pages or so. I read them so fast that I’m sure I missed things. I loved it. Loved the end. Rowling’s amazing. Truly amazing. What a series!
I did love that she gave Potter’s middle child a name with the initials ASP. I wonder if he will end up a parsletongue.
I got my UK edition in today. It’s only 525ish pages (small type and no spaces between lines), and is missing the small chapter illustrations. I’ve started it for my second read through.
