Six honestly bored the daylights out of me, and I don't bore that easily. I thought the writing was sloppy and the usually sparkling characters were flat. I read it twice and that only made it worse. There were some good plot points in there, but they were smothered by the Teen Date-O-Rama (which my teenaged cousins felt was sadly stereotypical of their age group) and finding out what kind of kibble was preferred by Tommy Boy's mother's best friend's sister's pet cat Tigger.
*I don't think Snape was wrong to take the Vow, exactly; I think he and Dumbledore both knew something like that would be a possibility. I think he did what he did because it had to be done; by carrying out Draco's mission for him, he kept Draco from harm, kept his cover and did as Dumbledore wanted.
I'm sure they were in it together; if nothing else, I think Snape trusted Dumbledore completely. I agree with you that he is not evil; I think that behind the scorn and apparently selfish motivations, he has a strong faith in what he believes is Right.
(*forgive if the following doesn't make perfect sense. I have to really think about my English to remember the correct words.)
