Yesterday, I finished the Harry Potter series. I feel surprisingly poignant about that today. While there is now some closure, just like so many others I am saddened that I will no longer read about Harry and his adventures again.
I would have never expected to get so into this series, however I think that's probably one of the main reasons I've enjoyed the books as much as I have (and also because J.K. Rowling did a excellent job developing the characters).
Since there are so many people who are working on finishing or plan to eventually read the series, I will refrain from talking about anything in the books today. However, I would like to share my favorite / least favorite characters in the series (and my grades for all the books and movies to date). I will likely do a much more detailed list of items at some point in the future.
Favorite characters (in order): Ginny, Sirius, Hermione and Neville (in book seven)
Least favorite characters: Snape (in the first five books), Vernon and Peeves
