Brief synopsis (no spoilers):
The end (of the series) is nigh. Harry comes of age, and then he, Ron, and Hermione set out to finish Dumbledore's last orders, alone. They struggle with not having clear direction, and having to figure out their own way. And to muddle their path, they learn about three ancient, powerful, magical artifacts, and have to decide which are more important to hunt: Hallows or Horcruxes.
Category:
YA fiction
Why I chose this book:
I've read the series several times, but I've never reviewed them
My personal opinion:
I was sad to reach the end of the book, wish it could have gone on for longer. Don't give in, dear author- don't continue the story! Let it live on in our imaginations only. The story line was thrilling, the narration excellent, and the character development flawless. It definitely has some sad parts, so be warned.

Series review as a whole:
Outstanding. Aspects from the very first book carry through to the end, and become significant. My younger children (under 12) prefer the first few books, but my older children and I prefer the later books in the series.
If you only have time for one, read:
Start at the beginning- Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone
