EDIT: Still loved this one. This one will always carry a special place in my heart I think. Still a 5/5 for me. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Wow. I’ve finally finished this series again. I’d forgotten how much this book hurt. I’m glad that I finished it, but I’m also sad that it’s over. Just because I knew who died didn’t make it any easier. Reading Dobby, Fred, Remus, and Tonks’s deaths hurt so badly. Yes, they were side characters, but they were my comfort characters. I don’t really even have the words to talk about this book, because I love it that much. This has always been one of my favorites in the series, and I still stand by that. Overall, I give this book 5/5 stars, a spot on the Hall of Fame shelf, and I’ll eventually read it again.

Review: September 2014 ✔ Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by J. K. Rowling 5★♥♥♥ Umpteenth reread and still love this series. Reread on kindle w/ iTunes audio. Own all the hard/ paperback books and audio on iTunes, borrowed it on kindle this time around for the tenth or something reread. Jim Dale seems to be the only person I can tolerate to listen to in regards to adults attempting to speak like a child or teenager. They either get the tone wrong, or something in a way that I wouldn't have done if I had just read it myself. The case of Jim Dale and the Harry Potter books, most of the time he's spot on to what I would've imagined the characters sounding like. I am a Harry Potter fan. Go Gryffindor. But I didn't become a fan until 2003. My youngest sister was a fan first and I just thought it was for young kids. Nope. I ended up buying a European edition of the 4th book from a grown man who was in the Marines (I was in the Navy). It's just one of those under-dog storylines that captivated a lot of people on my ship in my Navy days. So I was never embarrassed to be seen reading the books in public. And watching the movies as well as reading them have been a family thing. My younger cousins are now reading and watching the movies. And in the near future, my sister told my 4 year old niece that maybe I'll read them to her. So I think I've become more accustomed to watching the movies as of late. Rereading the Deathly Hallows, I've found that I have forgotten about some parts. Mostly little things. And this book will always be my most favorite of the series. It really shows the strength of all the characters. Even Mrs. Wesley. I really loved the part with her and Belatrix fighting it out. And the fact that Harry was not the only one that killed off the Horcrux pieces. Let alone fought against Voldermort. And there is certainly a lot more symbolism in this book than the others I think. And yes there is a lot of fantasy in this. The fact that these people are all wizards speaks that. And though I might think (along with a lot of other of my family and friends), that this book is both universal and ageless, it's still a Young Adult book. But it's still my favorite.

★★★★★ Dark, hopeful, touching. Finishing Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows left me feeling emotional and satisfied. I already knew how it ended from the movies, so I didn’t have the same element of surprise, but experiencing the conclusion through the books still felt incredibly rewarding. In the final installment, Harry, Ron, and Hermione leave Hogwarts behind to search for the Horcruxes and find a way to defeat Voldemort once and for all. With the wizarding world under his control and danger growing around them, their journey becomes darker and more dangerous as they move toward the final battle. What made this a five-star read for me was the combination of emotional impact, incredible world-building, and a classic hero vs. villain story where love ultimately wins. I’ve always been a sucker for stories like that, and Deathly Hallows delivers it in a way that feels earned. I also loved the darker tone of this book. There is something about a story becoming darker that makes the moments of hope feel so much more touching. You can’t embrace the light without a little darkness, and I think Deathly Hallows does that beautifully. The stakes felt real, and the journey to the Battle of Hogwarts made the final confrontation feel earned rather than like an easy victory. Being away from Hogwarts for so much of the book did feel a little strange. Hogwarts has been such a central part of the series that I missed having it as the backdrop, and it probably wasn’t my favorite aspect of this one. More than anything, I’m leaving this series with a feeling of nostalgia and comfort. Harry Potter has become one of those stories I know I’ll return to years from now, and I’m glad I finally experienced the books for myself. It’s popular for a reason, and Deathly Hallows was a wonderfully written and satisfying conclusion to a story that has become timeless for so many people.
