Spoiler
The story has amazing foreshadowing. This book is where it starts getting darker in the series. Although sad, I love a bit of a dark element in a book. It did take a while to read, that’s probably my only con. However, it’s a big book, so I can’t complain much there. I loved how we got to see Harry’s character improve over the book. I loved how the last chapter was realistic, too. Harry said how he couldn’t remember much from the days after. In traumatic events, that’s often the case. I love how they had a logical reason for why Harry could defeat Voldemort, too. A reason that wasn’t purely because he was the main character. I feel like the books are much more detailed than the movies. Like in the book, Dobby gave Harry gillyweed instead of Neville.Spoiler
I loved the books more overall. I can’t wait to read the rest.Moderate: Child death
