> Dumbledore's death really was a shock --
Yes. WAH!!!
>although, with hindsight, I can see that his not healing his hand was probably a sign that it was coming, you know?
Hmm. Thats a good point.
>And, if I'm being fair, there were some other reasons I can see -- for dramatic strategy -- that it was time for him to go, so that Harry would have to be more independent.
:-(
I know you are right.
> I know that I'm weird, and I'll admit it probably has a lot to do with Alan Rickman, but Snape's betrayal was probably more of a blow to me than Dumbledore's death! How could Severus fool me so completely? I ask you, is that fair? I'm still feeling pretty off-balance about that.Yeah. I do wonder what will happen there. Why dumbledore trusted him. Whether dumbledore trusted him really - or whether it is more that snape is crucial to the success of their enterprise so it was more a matter of hope...
> As for the various romances, I'm just glad that Tonks found her way to happiness.Yeah. I like her very much :-)
>She deserves it, if anyone does. And, since I didn't ever think that Harry and Hermoine were a good romantic match,
You didn't???
Aw.
I thought that could have been okay...>I'm just as happy to see her with Ron. While I'm not sure I'd want to spend significant chunks of time with their offspring,
!!!
>I wouldn't worry about their breeding too much. Between Grandmother Weasley and Momma Hermoine, think what those kids would have behind them! ('Course, that might just mean they'd learn to RUN!)
I guess if Ginny and Harry end up together and Ron and Hermoinie end up together. If Harry and Hermoinie were together we'd need new characters for the others...
> Excellent book, I enjoyed it a great deal, and am glad I broke down and bought it last week. Now, on to the next in my stack...That was my once yearly novel thing I think. I just can't seem to get into novels very much anymore :-( Too much text book reading has ruined it for me, I think.
