Hey Harry!
RandomTalks here with a short review!
I genuinely liked this start to the final chapter. We actually 'hear' from the characters in this part, even though it is just Harry. You have tried a more contemplative approach in this part, where we focus more on the character's thoughts than what is going on with the plot. And I have to say it really works because it adds that element that had been missing in the last chapter. This chapter instantly becomes a better read, because we are hearing from Harry, we are experiencing it with him. Even though it is only one person, we know now what is going on in our characters' heads and it gives us a better perception of the story.
I liked the fact that you kept this part brief as it acts more like a short and calm interlude before we move back to the story, or rather the next book. Listening to Harry's overview of this story makes us a little nostalgic and release a great big breath when we realize everything that has happened since we started on this journey. It makes us think and remember and we feel Harry's emotions reflected very much in our own. I also liked the fact that you included the moments in between like Harry wanting to stand up to get a better view of the bleak scenery or the shared wink between the siblings. Moments like these are what we had been missing in the last couple of chapters and I am glad we got to witness these 'quiet' moments again. Just like back when our trio used to stare at the stars after their shift. Wow....it feels like such a long time ago.
Mom was pretty clear about what had to happen next after all.
Now, the beginning to this chapter also felt like it was setting up the next story. It definitely adds a new excitement to the story and we wonder what is going to happen next. From the quoted sentence, we get the impression that they know exactly what is going to happen next and have a very formed and well-prepared plan. The fact that we know nothing about it, does excite me a little.
Keep writing and have a great day!
