I've Read It.

I picked up my copy of Harry Potter & the Deathly Hallows on Saturday afternoon. Read a bit of it in the afternoon, but read most of it that night. Was done within 6 or 7 hours.

So...the epilogue? WTF???

Wow, the whole thing moved kinda slow.

Far too many questions left unanswered. I remember seeing an interview or list of questions or something some time ago that included a bunch of details that would be resolved by the end of the book that never were.

As far as a book goes though, it was generally pretty good.

As the end of the series? Feh. I call do-over.

I think I agree with you. I'm still trying to decide if I really liked it or not. A re-read may need to happen.

It did move too slowly in the middle. All those pages in the forests could have been much shorter.

The epilogue did piss me off a little. Could have been written better, especially by her standards. But seemingly she's had that written since book one.

But yeah, I second your motion for a do-over.

Just give it a few days . . . it'll start growing on you.
