Harry Potter and the Deathly Harrows by J K Rowling
Well, what can I say...this book is the epitome (the BEST) as of yet. Author J K Rowling has outdone herself...I especially loved that she didn't spend half the book re-explaining some things that occured in the past 6 books, as this book was already long enough. She must have felt that if you haven't read them yet, now's not the time to jump in!
This last installment focuses on Harry, Ron, and Hermione as they ditch school to fulfill Dumbledore's last wishes that they locate and destroy the remaining horcruxes to bring about Lord Voldemort's timely and overdue demise. This book is not for the feint of heart...if some of the past books upset you, then don't read this one...not everyone lives happily ever after.
That said, Rowling has masterfully woven a tale sure to please the most ardent fantasy lover. The details and foreshadowing are fantastic, and without giving the ending away, the finale is nothing less than perfect. I hope you enjoy it as much as I have!

Summer!!!
Hi all of you bookworms out in Library Land!!! Hope you are enjoying your summer. Any exciting reads??? Just post a comment to this entry, and I will check periodically and share your thoughts in a new post.
I have been reading some "grown-up books" lately, nothing too exciting, just some mysteries by Patterson. I will be reading some "kid books" soon, and let you in on any reads that I think you might enjoy.
Happy Fourth to all!!!
