Top review for a book by J. K. Rowling
Megan wrote a review on Harry Potter and the deathly hallows (ill., engl.ed)
It was an awesome book. I couldn't seem to put it down. Read it in less than a week. My only complaint is that I thought the ending was too short oh and it was upsetting that most of the characters i'd come to love die. Won't spoil it for those who haven't read it but I will say that a lot of what's said in the book seems to relate to what was said in the second book. I'm pretty sure I'll read it again especially with the last movie coming out next year.
