At the same time, their friendship, fortitude, and sense of right and wrong are tested in ways they never could have imagined. The ultimate battle between good and evil that closes out this final chapter of the epic series takes place where Harry's Wizarding life began: at Hogwarts. The satisfying conclusion offers shocking last-minute twists, incredible acts of courage, powerful new forms of magic, and the resolution of many mysteries. Above all, this intense, cathartic book serves as a clear statement of the message at the heart of the Harry Potter series: that choice matters much more than destiny, and that love will always triumph over death.
Reading the series again after 25 years made me realise how much I didn't get the first time and how much was altered for the movies.
From all books I liked "The Order of the Phoenix" the least. Not sure why but I thought it quite chewy to read through. Not as gripping or thrilling as the others.
Nonetheless, I love the series. Guess, I will read them again in 20+years or so ;).
Review of 'harry potter the deathly hallows' on 'Goodreads'
4 stars
I was delighted (or slightly irritated) again by some of the details I had forgotten since my 2007 reading. I have to admit to staying up well past bedtime last night to finish the book/series. No regrets!
