I had a lot of doubts going into the final installment in the Harry Potter series. The most recent books in the series wandered around a lot, leaving a lot of threads dangling and leaving me wondering whether or not Rowling could possibly come up with a satisfying ending.

Well, for the most part, she came through. Most of the plot lines I remembered were resolved adequately, and this book moves more fluidly and evenly than any since The Prisoner of Azkaban. I'm glad it's over, but I can definitely say that I enjoyed the ride.
