Welcome to Gaia! ::

Just in case you're a moron....

SPOILER ALERT!!!!

Oh, god. Oh, god. It's over. It's... over.

I should try for real sentances now. Um.... Severus. Yes. I knew it, I trusted him, he was brilliant, I love him so much, and then... it was so pointless, his death. So pointless.

And Fred! Poor George, poor baby... I called that one, too, I'd like to point out... but I didn't want it to actually happen! And Dobby... I cried for Dobby. Lupin and Tonks, too... but it was kinda thrown in there like an afterthought, which was sad.

Harry died. Harry lived. What the ********. I can't even be angry at JKR, although I might be eventually... But right now... Oh, wow...

See, Dani? We were right. Everything happened. He died. He didn't die. Both. Everything, both. He was a horcrux, but he wasn't a horcrux. Yes! Brilliance!
Except the 'Lupin is evil' bit... heh heh...

Severus... I... Severus. Yes.

And Colin! Awww...

And the fanservice! Insane! JKR does love us, maybe. Well, not those of us who are Slytherin, clearly. Glare. but... yes.

All said, it was very much worth the time spent in line.

Lupins >> And I am regarding Tonks as a Lupin. Out of all the characters that died beforehand, they were the only ones I cried for. And I mean, I bawled when they died. I went into that book, upset that Lupin had married her, but in the end I was happy. And... Teddy... Man, when Lupin announced Harry as his godfather, I suddenly didn't want Harry to die. It would've been a horrible Sirius-thing, all over again. I bawled when I thought Harry was going to die, because I worried for Teddy. I love Teddy. TT.TT And, I did hate how they kind of just added Lupin and Tonks' in there. Like, "do de do de do... Look, there are the Weasley's mourning Fred. And... well, isn't that a sight! Lupin and Tonks, too! Shucks." For that, I wish death upon JKR. Unbearable death.

Severus >> Dude, I love that man. I can't even form a sentence strong enough to show my love. I just... ah. And at the end, "Albus Severus Potter"... I cried, I admit. Actually, I sobbed.

Overall, honestly, I liked the book. Third is still my favourite, though, but Deathly Hallows is most definitely my second. Don't know the order of favourites anymore. Don't care. Just... DH... I just finished the book, if you hadn't guessed. I was stopped from reading the book on Saturday due to chores and family gatherings. And then on top of that I had to work today. Oh, how the world hates me. ><

BUT, the one thing that I almost clawed my eyes about was...

"The scar had not pained Harry for nineteen years. All was well."

... All was well? That's how she decided to end her beautiful series? Dear Lord. I think I burst an atrium.

could have been worse, she could have said Harry felt a slight twinge from his scar. She left out who ended up raising Teddy at the end. All we know is that he was snogging some girl and he's 19. I laughed when it hit me that Draco has a receeding hairline at the end of the book. I cried when Dobby, Fred, Colin, Remus, and Tonks died. Kreacher had me laughing hysterically. And Finora my mom took my book like 5 chapters before the end because I didn't want to stop to walk the dogs. I have a bad feeling that the 7th movie is gonna be the worst b/c there is no way they can cut stuff out! 4 was my favorite but it changed. 7 is now my favorite simply because I thought it had no fillers and was the best written.

Oh God, I wanted to glomp James and Albus. They are so adorable. And James is so devious. *cackles* Reminds me of Prongs himself, or an evil mixture between Prongs and Padfoot. It's... Padong. Or, Pronfoot. razz

Oh my gosh, when the book said that Harry HAD to die, the first thing I thought of was, "NOO!!! DON'T DO THAT TO TEDDY!!!" You may ask, did I scream it this loud, considering I finished the book at 3 am? As a matter of fact, I did. My Dad was reading to cut my throat and hang me by my large intestine from the ceiling, but I did it because I felt so much emotion. By the end of the book, I couldn't stop myself from squealing in excitement or crying in sorrow. It was all so much emotion, all rushing together into this big... emotion-puddle.

Everything from the chapter Harry's dead on I didn't really like.

Voldemort's death was pathetic, and for some reason it reminded me of the end of Death Note in terms of what happened to Raito. It was completely ridiculous that the Dark Lord died by a) the first spells cast, and b) his own hand. On the other hand J.K. could just be trying to prove how very uninformed Voldemort is...

And it seemed like J.K. was trying to do too much with the wands at the end.

I didn't like that marriage between Lupin and Tonks (Lupin is closer to her mother's age then anything), and the scene where Lupin said he made a mistake marrying her was just awesome.

Their death was insignificant and I didn't like that, but I absolutely adored the scene where Harry summons Lupin, Sirius, and is parents. I still say it was better he died.

For the bloody saviour of the wizarding world Harry is a moron and should be speared for his idiocy. "Oh, sure Bathilda, even though you're acting completely loony I'll go upstairs alone with you! I'm only the future saviour of the wizarding world after all. Hey, while I'm at it, why don't I just hand over my wand? Oooooooooo, do you have something for me?" And then he followed the doe! Alone! Like, my God.

I hated the epilogue, but I loved the Draco bits, and the Severus bits. And reading that makes me wonder which crazy fangirl has already begun an Albus/Scorpius with implied Drarry fic. Certainly not this one (lies).

I loved Dumbledore in the seventh book, and learning about Dumbledore. That was cool. He was so... human.

And ok, the Snape loved Lily thing (and then he started to love Harry as well) was just adorable, and it made me happy. I honestly thought Snape defecting had something to do with Lily.

I didn't like Draco in the seventh book, but I mean... What could he REALLY do? He was trapped, and so were his parents, so he had to behave. Poor baby. But I like that Draco's family did actually love him.

I cried for Dobby. Actually I had to set down the book and cry for Dobby. That was really upsetting. I also cried for Fred a little, and well, I was already crying when it came to the SENTENCE about Lupin.

OK, the part where Harry was thinking about his death seriously freaked me out, because almost everything he thought, I've thought before (except, you know, the saviour of the wizarding world bits). I really got into that chapter. And although I was really happy Harry was going to die, I was also terrified.

I like at the end, when Molly took out Bella. Molly pwns.

There's more, but it's 5:45, I've slept for 3 hours, and I can't focus.

Overall, I liked the book, and while it's not my favourite, it's really useful knowledge-wise.

EDIT: So, just curious has anyone else had an anxiety attack over the fact the Harry Potter is over?

Ha ha ha! Lightsabres! That is delightful.

I guess I can ALMOST see the Bathilda thing, but I still think it was stupid to trust someone he just met.

And I agree that I like Teddy, and I'm glad Lupin was happy, but the rest of the marriage is no.

As apposed to a dead female? And what of males? Dead or otherwise? Oh, what is your favourite Lupin pairing?

Once I write more you can, but I'm feeling really insecure about my writing... so... who knows when that'll be.
