No Big Surprises, but still a great read.
Pros: It's a nice, long read that holds my interest. Cons: The ending was a little too easy. Bottom Line: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - A Magical Adventure Ends (No Spoilers)
Pros: Returning characters in a satisfying end to the series. Cons: It is the last book. Some slower spots. Some characters underused. Bottom Line: The BEST Harry Potter Book, Sans Spoilers
Pros: nonformulaic action, mystery, well edited, twists, vivid details, wonderful message, well resolved Cons: not a standalone book (hardly a con for the last in a series!) Bottom Line: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows -- Rowling's finale is a masterpiece
Pros: Fantastic end to a fantastic series Cons: Not one. Bottom Line: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Harry Comes of Age, and the Epic Ends
Pros: Cathartic conclusion; many echoes and reminders of themes and images from the earlier books Cons: Some story arcs of important secondary characters felt rushed Bottom Line: No spoilers--just some, perhaps, sappy analysis and and a thank you
Pros: Story--if I say more I will undoubtedly spoil something Cons: It was only 750 pages long, but that's probably not as bad as all that. Bottom Line: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows - An Ending
Pros: it's the right ending for the story Cons: god, it's long. And Rowling really needs an editor. Bottom Line: The Saga Concludes With Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows
Pros: beautifully written, brilliant conclusion Cons: some storylines are underdeveloped Bottom Line: Severus Snape: Friend or Foe? Now I Know! Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Review
Pros: Loose ends are wrapped up, questions are answered. A very satisfying ending. Cons: A bit wordy and too long at times. Bottom Line: Harry, Ron, And Hermione one last time
Pros: Gripping read. Cons: The epilogue is flat. Bottom Line: |
