Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

Reader reviewed by Bettina

Riddles, creatures that suck away souls, missions for destroying possibly the world's most evil wizard: It has it all. The soaring finale of the Harry Potter series is enough to make readers want more even though it has a satisfying ending, just like eating a whole bunch of your favorite food and then stopping to take a nap.

Harry and his friends decide to skip their last year of school to go and try to make sense of every riddle that their beloved headmaster, Albus Dumbledore, left behind. At the same time, evil is sweeping over the world as Voldemort is coming back into power. With noone to trust and having their trust being shaken in things they thought were truths, the friendship and loyalty of the friends are put under a grueling test as they go through disastrous weddings and battles with evil. Finally, the answer to "what will happen to Harry?" is revealed in the amazingly detailed last book in the series.

There isn't much more to say, but to readers that didn't read the book yet, try to reread every book before and pick out all the details. It's going to make you love the book even more. ;)

HARRY POTTER HATERS BEWARE. THIS IS A GOOD REVIEW! If you have followed the Harry Potter series from the start, you know what I am talking about. But Im writing this to tell you about what you have all been waiting for. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.
Even though Harry Potter is what I like to call fantastical, (a mix between fantastic and fantasy.) the emotional problems that triggered these characters were very realistic. On the other hand, the setting of this wonderful story was in very un- realistic places; for example, Hogwarts, the magical wizarding school, and Azkaban, the maximum security prison that is controlled by evil dementors. But lets get back to the substance you really want to know about& the plot! Basically, J.K Rowling follows Harry, Ron, and Hermoine on their quest to search and destroy the horcruxes, otherwise known as pieces of Voldemorts soul. While looking for these horcruxes, they are sent on a wild goose chase to find out what the deathly hallows are, and how to find them before Voldemort uses it to his advantage. This eventually leads to an epic battle at Hogwarts, Good vs. Bad. This whole story is read through third person, mostly exploring Harrys thoughts and ideas. Overall, this book was non-stop excitement, adventure, and suspense.
To rate on a scale of 1-5 would be impossible. I would have to give this book a definite 6. I couldnt stop reading! My mom telling me I had to go to sleep eventually stopped me. Who needs sleep when you have Harry? And when the second day came around? The book was flipped shut. I was already done. I must admit that the first few pages were a snore, but after the first chapter, you could officially say I was hooked. It was easy to concentrate, even with my dog jumping all over me, because I felt like I had left my world and was gone in Harrys. I really connect with Harrys internal conflicts and feelings. Though the whole magical craze was going on, the character description and setting details were magnificent! I connect to the theme because I understand that you should keep driving, even if there is a road block. I loved J.K. Rowlings style of writing, and loved the way I could swish into the story. It was grand!
I am an enormous Harry fan, and I adored the last of Rowlings famous series. I loved this book, and I hope you love it too&all of the 759 pages of it!

In the last of the Harry Potter series, we once again join Harry, Ron, and Hermione in a dangerous world full of hidden dangers. They confront Death Eaters at every corner who are taking over the Minstry. (Umbridge is baa-ack!)Snape is Headmaster and the Hogwarts students are abused. Finally, the prophecy is fulfilled and one dies while the other survives.

This was a suspenseful read with all the elements of another great Harry Potter. It was great, the only thing I wish was that she would have made the ending longer so we could see the effects of the outcome. The epilogue made up for some of it, but you become so attached you want to know about what happens to EVERYONE! The one thing I hated about this book: it's the last in the series!

In the final book of the series, Harry along with Ron and Hermione, are on a quest to find the missing horcruxes. Except that many horrible things are happening at Hogwarts and the whole magic world, the death eaters have taken over the ministry of magic and getting rid of all muggle born wizards.

Soon Harry realizes that he will have to face Voldemort once again. J.K Rowling takes us through many adventures that will eventually lead to Harry fufilling his destiny.

Will Harry be able to defeat Voldemort once and for all?

This book was a great ending of the series. It dove deeply into the secrets of Dumbledore and Snape and also Voledmort. It had action and tragedy from the first chapter, making you not want to put it down even for a second. I finished the book within 24 hours and was definitely not disapointed with this final installment.

I read this book in less than four days. It was amazing. There are tons of secrets and questions that get answered. Snape surprises you and a lot of people die. It is so sad but so good. A great way to end the series if I may say so myself. Definitely worth the buy since you will cherish it forever.

Unlike the other harry potters, this book had so much more action. In the other books you would have one peice of massive action in an entire book. WQith this one though, it has a lot of action in every chapter.

It was the best harry potter book in my opinion and i'm extremely sad that it's the last. But i was a bit disappointed with the way it ended. so was my friend.

Anyway you have to read this book, if you loved the others then you're garrenteed to love this one!!
I know i did.

i thought it was awesome it tied everything together and the adventure that Harry went through keeped me on the edge of my seat. The only thing in my opinion that I didnt like was at the end it didnt tell you what everyone did, job wise i mean, but everything else was great.

This book was amazing, there was so much action and adventure! Harry is back with Ron and Hermione and they are collecting the Horcruxes that Dumbledore left them to figure out. They are basically on their own for a while and are really missing Hogwarts. It was interesting how they were lacking leadership and organization in their lives and there were parts where they were just sitting around in a camp talking or listening to others when they should have been going off to search for things. The end was really great though, kind of confusing but there was tons of action.
