I didnt even think about the Teddy and Harry thing. Why DIDNT he go live with them? Anyway I hated the ending. I dont think Snape was good at all. He was acting selfishly the whole time - he wanted Lily safe and only because he had feelings for her. If he were really a good person he would have worried about Harry and James' well-being as well. He was still in league with Voldemort even if it wasnt whole-heartedly. A truly good person couldnt have done it at all. I never liked Snape much and never will, and although I've always known that he wasnt truly EVIL, he was never a good person.

I also disagree with the Harry-Ginny relationship. In the span of 7 years their relationship has been nothing more than a few kisses and sideways glances, and then ALL OF A SUDDEN, 19 years later they are married. It just bothers me (yes yes I know a lot could have happened in those 19 years but *I* dont know about it do I?) and the names of their kids? Dont even get me started... Lily and James, eh, ok... But "Albus Severus Potter"? That's such a ridiculous name, and Rowling went completely overboard on the 'naming after other characters' bit. >_<

Harry should have died. I would have cried my eyes out and hated it, but I felt that's how the book should have ended. He and Voldemort would have both died and the rest of the wizarding world would have returned to normal.

The two good things about the ending: I thought for sure Hagrid would die by the time the series was over and Rowling gave me a good scare when he got carried off by spiders, but in the end he didnt. Hagrid was my second fave character. I would have never forgiven her if he had died. And the second thing is that Neville is now proff. of herbology, and his character grew up so much. I adored him when he was younger and he just became this great character the more and more the years went on. (I loved his gran. -lol- I pictured her as this mad old woman running around with her huge hat stunning death eaters and yelling crazy things an old bat would say. It was comical. -lol-)

I apologize if this is confusing or wordy and not wordy enough. I just finished the book a few minutes ago. My brain is still digesting.


***Could someone please explain why Harry said that the rightful owner of the Elder wand was Draco Malfoy? Or did I read that wrong and he was talking about the wand he had stolen from Draco?***
