5.0

Towards the end of the Harry Potter series, the books are increasingly more devastating. It doesn’t matter how ofter I reread them, they still hit me with the same punch. It’s hard to see characters we’ve come to love in such terrible distress. But the story is so compelling, and the books so clever, that they demand to be reread.
