Even though it was satisfactory, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows lacked the magic and suspense that the other novels had... the editing was lacking and the storyline was incredibly predictable. Some scenes received more attention than necessary while others, which should have been developed, were dropped in as an afterthought.

However, in spite of these negatives, the book as a whole provided an adequate ending to a series that has captivated me for years. The death count was surprisingly low and the end was a little cheesy (although I don't know if I can approve of the choices Rowling made in naming Harry and Draco's children), and both of these factors seemed to add to the novel's charm.

Now, I can look forward to returning to my current obsession; Gene Wolfe's Books of the New Sun... his fantastic use of language creates a depth and mystery in his novels that is incomprehensible.

Due to classes and a lack of motivation, I haven't drawn anything in a while...in spite of that failing, I have returned to art and will hopefully be able to produce improved pieces.
