.... that was exciting....

I finally finished reading the Harry Potter series (again) on October 21.
It was rather anti-climatic, ending it. I was reading to distract my thoughts, not really to enjoy. I think the momentous themes and revelations that happen in the last few chapters just sort of informed me in a dull, matter-of-factual way. It wasn't exciting, or exhilarating, or relieving, or comforting, or any of the other things I generally associate with Harry Potter and happy endings.
How disappointing after my first year-long read-through of the series.
