How amazing in the typical JKR style. From beginning to end, the fight to the finish was unique, honest, funny, devastating, and encompassed so many memories from the past six books. From when Harry takes a look under the stairs and remembers how small he had been, and what life was like before magic, to reuniting with the giant spiders of the Forest, to the constant battle for blood rights and the return Buckbeak, memories abounded in this last installment.
That's not to say there weren't amazing plot twists and turns. Characters grew in both maturity and depth, in particular, Ron and Dumbledore. Through deaths (and non-deaths), I think all Harry Potter fans found something, over which to shed a tear.
It was brilliant and witty, while being mature and proving these stories... they're not really kids books.
I loved it.
Bye, Harry! We'll miss you. :)
