Rowling's masterpiece. There are several plotholes created throughout the series, but I can forgive them for a final book as strong as this. The Golden Trio are simply just lovable; Rowling presents the personal consequences of war so accurately, you simply cannot put it down. Love and loss are the tale (one particular student's death had me sobbing, but then you're delighted because the slowburn couple finally admit their feelings), and Rowling merges them perfectly. My only qualm is the epilogue. 'All was well'.... Rowling. You can do better than that.

This is definitely one of my favourites of the series. Way better than the film's, the first one especially (tent the film *eyeroll*). Always something happening unlike previous books where it takes a while for Harry to really do something. There's continuous new discoveries that excite me everytime you can click it together. The writing style is definitely so much better than previous books, and it was just easier to read due to the continuous adventure, I loved it! It didn't wait until the end of the book to uncover the mystery and I appreciated that, there was clues right throughout. Makes me cry every single time, just the deaths and Kreacher (he broke my heart in OoTP, but he puts it back together in this, with his story uncovered I have a new appreciation for him. And the end when he bursts into the battle, just tears. Anyways, overall a good read and would definitely read again. It's definitely the darker of the HP books.
