The Last 100 Glorious Days of Harry Potter – Day 98

Q: Which is your favourite Harry Potter book and why?

A: Book 7, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows.

Because all those little details that you forgot about from books 1-6 come back to mean something important or wonderful in the end. Because while all of our frantic questions are answered and wrapped up in a nice little package, there are still things to ponder that don’t fit inside that package. Because Ron’s character arc is so brilliant and perfect and it broke my heart. Because ‘she’s like my sister.’ Because ‘I thought you knew.’ Because ‘that makes me sound a lot cooler than I was…’ but it doesn’t because he WAS. Because characters who were ‘good’ or ‘evil’ are suddenly somewhere in between. Because Harry makes two of the most difficult decisions of his life. Because you could remove magic from the book and it would still be my favourite thing ever because of the characters and their relationships. Because it all ends here.
