gadgets, magical races and Potterverse economics...

Way back when, I pre-ordered Deathly Hallows, not realizing that summer classes didn’t end until August 1st. This past weekend I finally had a chance to read the book. It’s kind of strange reading it now, when most other people have had time to mull over their reactions to it – I’m even having trouble finding interesting reaction articles and posts at this point. Oh well. Having read it completely unspoiled and not being infected by online squee, my interpretation is king. ;-)

I really enjoyed this book. I got nearly everything I wanted out of it and I was comfortable with it. Deathly Hallows is not an especially challenging book but I don’t think that the rest of the series was either. It was, above all, a good read.
