HP 7 (Deathly Hallows)
1- “It is a curious thing, Harry, but perhaps those who are best suited to power are those who have never sought it. Those who, like you, have leadership thrust upon them, and take up the mantle because they must, and find to their own surprise that they wear it well.” Harry was the leader of the operation throughout the entire novel. This vividly written and intriguing quote was indirectly targeted at him because he was given the power even though he didn't ask for it.
2- What was the point of the wizarding war? What was the cause of muggleborn prejudices? Why was Umbrige able to conjure a Patronus while interrogating muggleborns? Who was the real hero? How was death a major object of this novel? Wizards are humans, so why weren't all humans treated equally? How does this relate to the real world?
3- The Deathly Hallows created a dark and foreboding atmosphere for the readers. Even at the end of the story, there was so much death and destruction that there was no way for the audience to feel completely contented and happy with the ending. Throughout the story, characters were being tortured, maimed, and dying. No one was safe and it was overly shocking how quickly the world fell.
4- In my opinion, this was an amazing story, the best of the Harry Potter franchise. The writing was vivid and meaningful, and characters were memorable and well-crafted. J.K. Rowling gave readers the ability to get attached to the characters and the story. It was amazing that she had the ability to make us feel what the characters feel.
Alexandra St. Clair was in love with her college sweetheart Christopher Mason. One day Christopher decides they need a vacation, he makes plans for them to have a wonderful ski weekend. Alexandra's father didn't like Christopher at all and told them both. During their weekend Alexandra had a tragic accident. From that point her father tries to destroy her relationship with Christopher.
Alex's father made me angry. He could plainly see that his daughter was hurt by the breakup. He was a selfish man and had secrets of his own.
I was disappointed with this book because some of the questions were not answered. It was kind of like a movie cliffhanger with no sequel. For example, once Alexandra found out her father sabatoged her relationship with Christopher, she never confronts him. Now I am wondering if Ms. Wilson-Harris created a sequel to answer these questions.
Transferring energy in, because you’re ADDing heat.
Sorry, this is an educated guess.
