Excitement was shifting from neuron to neuron. I slowly opened the parcel containing my 14th birthday gift. I wondered why dad would give me two thick paperback novels that seemed to be appropriate for children of half my age. I brought it to class. No one seemed interested. A week after, some weird-looking muggles approached me and said that the book was a hit in Great Britain. Duh, stupid muggles! Well, that convinced me, atleast, to open the book and read from line toline, then page to page. That’s when I started to fly a broom and play quidditch, wave a wand and enunciate spells, and put on a hat that screamed… SLYTHERIN!
Harry Potter was a common talk in the entire school. Some muggles preferred to watch the HP movies while some fancied the book, which is more detailed and unmodified. The only question I had was “What will the ending of this fascinating story be like?”

Seven years passed and that question has already been answered when my journey with HP took its last curtsy with the 7th installment of JK’s book – The Deathly Hallows. Yes, ‘the boy who lived’ failed to succumb to You-know-who’s evil powers. Truly, there are certain things that even the greatest sorcerer couldn’t explain, one of which is LOVE!

It was a massacre of characters yet I’m still thankful that no one of the three main characters met death along the story. Fear not, some can still be reached thru portraits. I must also praise Snape’s bravery. He was a hero all along and I am very sorry to witness his gruesome death in the hands, or should I say scutes, of Nagini.
The epilogue was lovely and peace streamed down my soul when I read the last words – “All was well”.
