Re-read After a few years and good god, I am sad now. This book might not be the best hp book, but the end is devastating and I can almost feel Harry's emotions as my own.
The waves of anxiety and fear that overcome him after Dumbledore is gone is so understandable for everyone who lost a loved one... well done Rowling!

alternate title - Voldemort: A History
Seriously though, this is by far one of my favorite books in the Harry Potter series. It's probably #3 out of the seven books.
I enjoyed it so much because it was so info-dumpy. Now, info-dumpy books can be enjoyable if they're written well (this one was). I think the reason I, and many others, wasn't bored with this book is because, in spite of the fact that most of it was backstory, there was still a main plot and a main mystery that each Harry Potter book always features.
I also love that Dumbledore is so up close and personal in this book because as a I reader I look up to Dumbledore and Harry looks up to him to and there is just so much heartwarming looking upping.
There is one thing I want to note. If you've read the book (or if you know anything about Harry Potter) you know what I'm talking about. I am so sad. It hurts to read that scene and it hurts to think about it. much sad.
Overall, this book was very informative and, although some may not enjoy it as much as the others, it is definitely worth a read.

Probably the most emotional book in the series. Well-paced, solid plot, satisfying character arcs, and a great-set up for the final book in the series.

Ugh, I forget how dark it gets towards the end of the series. This one is probably my favorite book and movie.
