Will we experience the Harry Potter phenomenon ever again?
For the all of two people who read this blog and have not read Harry Potter & The Deathy Hallows - do not worry - no spoilers are here. Now I am not trying to sound crass or such but I do have to ask, “Will we experience anything like this again for a book?”. The mass movies, marketing and such for a book that both children and adults were obsessing about? Waiting for in baited breath? Parents and kids dressed up as their favorite characters just to go in a line-up and get the latest / last book? All this interest in a… book. It is an amazing event. I do hope it happens again in my life time.
I really do not know but I will say that after reading the book, I am very satisfied with it. It made me laugh, made me cry and made me shout at it. Of course their are parts of the book that thought could have been either cut down or revised but hey - no body is perfect - no one. Go write something and see what someone else thinks. Someone you don’t know. No one save your parents would think its perfect.
No. It was a nice final book which made me feel apart of its world, its characters and its emotions - what more could I ask for? Thank you J. K. Rowling.
To my friend best mate William regarding the conversation we had while standing in line on Friday night, “No she did not stick to her guns in the end but I liked that. I enjoyed the ending.”

Yea I know. I was a tad disappointed here and there. The relentless need to have everyone whose ever had more then two lines in a previous book show up for two more lines being my biggest stumbling block to pure whimsical enjoyment. At times I had to remind myself that it was a kid’s book and in them everyone get’s … oh right, no spoilers.
