I finished reading “Harry Potter & The Deathly Hallows” a few minutes ago. I’m not ashamed to admit I was in tears at the end: if anything, that’s a credit to JK Rowling — it’s only the very best writers who can draw such an emotional reaction from their audience (alternatively, I could just be a giant sap). I’m going to put my specific reaction down in a post, but so as not to spoil the book for those who haven’t yet finished, I’m going to delay that posting until Monday or later.

Yay! I haven’t read it yet – so please put a warning on your post so I won’t read it. I don’t plan to read HP7 for a few weeks – when I go on Vacay.
Happy you had fun reading.

Snay, I started reading mine at 8 last night, and didn’t put it down until I was finished at 5:40 this morning. I cried, too, along with laughing, smiling, and feeling quite giddy. What an amazing book – the best by far! I can’t wait to hear your opinions, too.

Is there ANYONE in the blogosphere not reading HP this weekend???
I guess it’s just me. Sigh ;-)

i started reading last night at 11, and finished it at two.
Honestly?
I felt a little bit let down with the ending.

My mom got the book yesterday and read it. I got it today and started it about an hour ago. I took a break just now to check if the “real” world was still out here.
I’m kind of hoping to have it done before I go to bed tonight. Over on LiveJournal there are all these posts that I cannot read because they contain spoilers and it’s really getting on my nerves!

I’ve heard nothing but good things about the book – glad you liked it!

My son stayed up all night last night reading it. I may even have to give it a shot even though I haven’t read 2 thru 6.
