I always dread reading the final book because it means the series is almost over. One thing that really stood out to me this time is how lost Harry would‘ve been without Hermione. Yet even with their friendship, in the end he had to take the final steps alone. Neville‘s transformation into a brave leader is one of my favorite parts of the story. I love meeting Aberforth and hearing his POV too. It‘s such a wonderful end to the series.
