by J.K. Rowling, 759 pages
Voldemort's power and presence is rising and all who stand against him are in mortal peril. Harry knows that he can't return to school this year. Instead, he must take on the challenge left to him by Dumbledore. He must find and destroy Voldemort's remaining Horcruxes if he is ever going to have a chance at defeating the Dark Lord himself. Ron and Hermione accompany him as Harry sets out on a quest filled with dangers that can be met only with equal daring and bravery.
This is the book where all all of Rowling's intricate plotting comes to a head. The characters overcome challenges, both internal and external, and we can feel their triumph, uncertainty, and pain. The big message that Rowling has been hinting at all along (especially through Dumbledore) becomes clear, and I think it's this that sets the book apart from the movie. But I still think the movies were great!
