So, now that most of you have read Deathly Hallows, I can link you this and this, which are my reactions jotted down as I was reading.

I loved it. Loved it! And I loved reading that most of you loved it too!

Ha! Finally finished the Age of Unbeauty review, figured out what I'm doing for the chaptered Büch-thing and the chaptered Mulisch-thing.
