For I have finished, just now, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.
I say nothing of details, mind, but this is the strongest book, the one I have liked the best, since Prisoner of Azkaban. I am, simply and completely satisfied with so worthy a conclusion to the series I have enjoyed now since first I listened to Jim Dale's wonderful narration of Harry Potter and the Sorceror's Stone five years ago.
Of course, I wept bitterly. Don't take that as being over anything specific, either (though some events did reduce me to being unable to read for tears). I was pretty weepy throughout much of the last half. Just one of those things.
Normally, it is so hard to say goodbye. Really, though, while I'm sorry the series is over, I could not have gotten anything better or enjoyed it more. If ever I thought Rowling deserved her fame, I think so twice as much now. Well done, ma'am.
