So, we're a little slower than most people when it comes to finishing the Harry Potter series, but WE FINALLY DID IT! Last night at 10:40pm we finally finished
Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows, the 7th and final book of the series. I know some of you will be happy because you won't have to be so "hush, hush" about it around us anymore. The reason it took us so long is because Darwin had the idea that he wanted to re-read the 4th book again before the 4th movie came out, so we decided to read it together. Actually, Darwin reads it out loud to me, and does different voices for all the characters...he's better than the guy on the cd! We didn't actually get it completely finished before the 4th movie came out, because we mainly read in the car on road trips, but once we finished the 4th book it had been long enough since I read the 5th book that we had to read that one again. We didn't have the 5th book finished before the 6th book came out, and it was kind of a domino affect from there. So, we got behind in our reading, but we at last met our goal. We've been doing some serious Harry Potter reading in the last few weeks, so much that Darwin's neck has been hurting and his spine has been swollen from looking down at the book for so long (he's such a great guy!). But, his physical suffering and our curiosity is now over, after a long wait and great anticipation of completing the book we've so longed to finish. We both agreed that we liked the ending, after hearing from other people that they didn't. J.K. Rowling is an amazing author, and it would be fantabulous if she were to write another series just as good, although we highly doubt it. Anyway, for those of you against reading Harry Potter, I repeat my opinion that you are missing out. I highly recommend reading these amazing books!
