| | |  Deathly Hallows USA Today's Book of 2007
USA Today has announced that Deathly Hallows is their book of 2007. In a piece on the novel, they explain their decision. Quote:
Hallows is the book of the year because Rowling gave her story an ending that was as graceful, unpredictable and satisfying as the series itself. She reaffirmed that magic can exist when someone opens a great book and enters a world created from words on paper. She made us believe that the imagination — like her own little wizard, now all grown up — still lives.

Good choice. The new Matt Ruff didn't live up to my expectations.

First. Now accepting gift-wrapped cookies.

hear hear! The ending was graceful. Although some of us might have a few more questions [probably because we still can't believe it's all over!xD], we're all satisfied by what she's done. | |

Awesome news for DH & I do agree about the ending. As much as the HP fandom has over-analyzed every possible scenario, JK still managed to surprise us. And that sure is something  | |

I am not surprised... We all were waiting to see what was going to happen
to Harry.. I do agree the ending was written perfectly,, And years to come
there will still be questions not answered about HP...

Frankly, I'm not surprised. Jo definitely deserves this title. There's no doubt about it!
