Harry Potter
Well you didn’t really think I would blog on it, did you?? Come on!
For a complete review, go here. One thing, though, that I didn’t add in that review–the use of biblical quotes was quite amazing. Rowling’s feelings toward Christianity (perhaps her own beliefs?) come through quite strongly, and positively, in this novel. She quotes Matthew: “Where your treasure is, there shall your heart be also.” It’s quite a poignant scene, as it is etched on a gravestone. And of course the themes of good vrs. evil, death vrs. life, etc. are present, just as they have always been.
