So long, Harry Potter!

July 29th, 2007 § 0 comments

I just finished reading the latest and the last book of J K Rowling’s series. It is still too early to form any sensible opinion about the book but I can confess to feeling sort of anti-climatic. Not the way she has ended it though parts of it will not sink till I read it at a much slower pace next time. More about the fact that this is it – no more Harry, no more adventures, no more save the world capers.

Though I do not think I will need grievance counsellors like some kids around the world, like most of Muggle-dom, I do experience a sense of ‘whoa! It has ended!’ Am I surprised with the way the book ended? Not really. Am I shocked with some of the explanations? Hmmm, may be. Was I happy to part with 8.99 pounds? Hell yeah!

But am I the only one who feels that the title doesn’t really fit the bill?
