Great story! As a lover of standalone books I loved that this one connected to the first but totally worked on its own. I really like how unique the books by this author are, the journeys on archeological digs are really interesting. The change of female leads were also a cool concept because of how it highlighted insecurity based on comparison.

Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows is the seventh book in the series and is the last book in the series. In this book Harry Potter goes on a quest to end Voldemort's Horcruxes. Though at the same time the wizarding world is going through darkness and chaoticness. I really enjoyed reading this book and would rate it five stars.

Harry Potter and the Half-blood Prince is the sixth book in the series. In this book the Death Eaters have gone crazy not only in the Wizarding world but also in the Muggle world. Muggles are people who don't do magic. Now Hogwarts is no longer a safe place for the students. I really enjoyed reading this book and would rate it five stars.

The Goldfinch

Disappointing. It’s heavily-flawed in ways I cannot overlook; the message feels tacked on at the end, and isn’t ‘present’ as a through-line. I couldn’t suspend my disbelief half or even most of the time. Long book, but not daunting; it’s laughably easy to get through, because even if it didn’t feel like ‘all that’ to me, it was still written with a quick and entertaining pen. I gave The Secret History a three-star rating but this novel struggled in comparison because of the wide-reaching scope. Like I said: couldn’t suspend my disbelief. Did not live up to the Pulitzer hype, though I understand why it touched people; wasn’t saying anything new to me. Also: weird structural quirks, with the punctuation and all that. Blegh.
