And it’s finished

I just finished Harry Potter.  It was a roller coaster ride unlike any other I’ve ever read, I believe.  I won’t say anything that could spoil things for anyone else.  besides, I’m actually not big on sharing my feelings about this type of thing.  I guess all I have to say is, I’m amazed at how it turned out.  I’m amazed at the creativity that JK Rowling has to have created this story, or channeled it as it may be.  I’m truly amazed.  And I’m sad that this is the last book.  Much more sad than I should be, considering it is still just a book.  But with a story like this, spanning so many years and adventures, you don’t want it to end because you feel like the characters are real people.

I realize JK Rowling has spent over 10 years with this story, and deserves a break to do other things.  But I hope, in the future, she will be inspired to tell us what happens next - in more than a few pages.  But if she doesn’t, I guess we’ll have to fill in the details ourselves.  Though I can’t imagine it would be nearly as interesting that way.  I guess all I can say is, Thank you Ms. Rowling, you have inspired me in ways I can’t even understand yet.
