Alisha Wright said: " This book is AMAZING!!! I am so glad I decided to re-read it because there are so many good parts that I had forgotten about! I also saw the movie at midnight, so now that I am reading the book so soon afterwards I am able to go "Hey! That wasn't in This book is AMAZING!!! I am so glad I decided to re-read it because there are so many good parts that I had forgotten about! I also saw the movie at midnight, so now that I am reading the book so soon afterwards I am able to go "Hey! That wasn't in the movie!" Or "They changed that!", which I enjoy. So far I have found several mistakes, but I realize that the movie can't be exactly the same as the book because then you would have a twelve hour movie (which would be so cool!!!!) Anyway, this book is the last book in the series, and the conclusion is so EPIC. I totally did not see it coming, well, I saw what was coming, but I couldn't have told you why what was coming actually happened, partly because it confuses me sometimes. I all I have to say is that the first part of the book as a lot about Harry, Ron, and Hermione tracking Horcruxes, but it gets really good. You won't be sorry if you decide to read this book, but I definitely recommend reading the first six first, because if you don't you really won't understand what is going on.
"Do not pity the dead, Harry, pity the living. Above all, pity those who live without love. By returning you may ensure that fewer souls are maimed and fewer families are torn apart. If that seems to you a worthy goal, then we say goodbye for the present." Is a quote from Albus Dumbledore, and I think it really captures the theme of the entire series. You see love shown throughout the books in several different ways, which I think is pretty cool, because most people would probably assume that books about witches and wizards would not have love as a main theme, (actually I know of one other book that is about angels and the author said something similar to this, about how the main theme of her book is love, but most books about supernatural people/creatures are centered around other things) but J.K. Rowling has done a wonderful job of incorporating love into the story of the life of a wizard named Harry Potter. LONG LIVE HARRY POTTER!!!!!!!!!! ...more "
