The book is amazing! i forgot how to do the spoiler tag so i wont say anything but its the best book shes written. I thought it would be the worst because there was so much to be covered but she managed it seamlessly it just fitted into place. since i dont have the spoiler tag i'll just sort of code it... The "Thing" that the Goblin stole, it was used at the end to destroy a horcrux...how did they get it back 😖

What? Yeah, plenty of children read the books, but it's not simply a "childrens book." People of all ages read those books. Children, teenagers, adults. It's stupid to label the series "childrens books."

They started as childrens books, but as it went, they were no longer childrens books. Okay?
Trust me, I was watching the news when the book came out. They were interviewing a bunch of kids in the early years of Elementary School (Which surprises me because they didn't look like readers but hey, that's just me.)

I asked a few friends and one really smart one pointed out that it was...
Spoiler:
the final battle between Voldemort and Harry - cause see they were in the great hall - that's why its got that orange sky thing - it must of taken place as the sun rose or something... it would make sense as the ceiling of the great hall is enchanted to look like the sky outside...
Reading while on vacation is not fun
Also, I was wondering if anyone else had people bugging them while you were trying to read... my dad walked in almost every half hour and said. "Is he dead yet?" [/B][/QUOTE]
My experience while reading the 7th book was very interesting. I was on vacation with my wife. We went to visit her dad and his brothers, who do not appreciate the books at all (they think they are children's books...ignorant people). Anyway, every 15 minutes I was hit with the question "Is he dead yet?" I did not find it amusing in the least, but unfortunately they did. It was very anticlimatic having to read the final book in the company of haters. However, I enjoyed the book immensely.
My wife's cousin (only 13 years old) is an amazing speed reader and finished the book after only 4 hours (I was only on page 180, we got 2 copies), and he promised not to tell me the ending. However, the next evening, one of his friends was at the house (I ended up ostracizing myself in a bedroom, being tired of hearing the "Is he dead yet?" taunts from my Uncles-In-Law). All of the sudden I heard my cousin-in-law's friend yell, "DAD! HE ALREADY READ THE 7TH BOOK AND TOLD ME THE ENDING!! HE SAID..." and then I covered my ears and sang the Harry Potter theme by John Williams as loudly as I could. Fortunately, I did not hear what the kid said. From that point on I was paranoid about hearing the ending in the hater-infested house. I kept myself away from everyone until I finished the book, my wife was very displeased, but it was worth it. I finally finished it at 4:30am on Sunday. Being thankful that no one told me the ending and happy to enjoy the book in a not-so-encouraging environment, I enjoyed myself the rest of the week.
