Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I live in Eastern Europe, where there has not been a six-month advertising campaign, where bookstores were not open at midnight, and where people did not spend three days in sleeping bags outside of shop doors. I did, however, buy the book within two minutes after the relevant bookstore opened, and I read it in one go. Magnificent, that's all I can say. Certainly I do not want to give up any of the book's many secrets, but I can say this: Everyone who appeared in the first six books reappears in this one, without exception, and sometimes in cameos which say "And there, standing before him, were Cho and Mary and Peter and David and Lee and Andrew and Susie and John." There to make the appearance, never to be seen again. Sort of like Miss Jeannie and her mirror on Romper Room. Second, JK Rowling said that people would die in this book, and she was right. Won't say another word about that. Third, this is the decisive battle between good and evil, and I won't be giving away plot points to say that in the end, good wins, but with several twists. Fourth, several baddies turn out to be good. Won't say which ones, because some baddies remain very, very bad indeed. Fifth, I think JK Rowling deserves every one of the gazillions of dollars she's earned for this series, and I am terribly, terribly sorry that it's finished now, but "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows" is certainly a heck of a way to go out with a big, big bang. Thank you, JK.
