I thought the epilogue was a bit weak, too.

dizilla July 22 2007, 21:10:02 UTC

*hugs back* It was! It felt like a fanfic (the only part this time that did XD) with just naming names of all the children. I mean yay for children and and the OBHWF but i wanted a little more trio love and... >_< *sigh*

I'd have liked some Harry/Ginny love. It went from "the battle is over, don't feel like breaking in on her mourning for her brother, we've got all the time in the world now" to "married 19 years with kids".

A SNOG would have been nice!

Hugs! I think the only reason she offed snape was to have Harry name his son Albus Severus. LOL

Oddly enough, in a less than subtle JK way...it make sense..lol.

dizilla July 22 2007, 21:18:21 UTC

XD But you can name a child after someone who's not dead. *sniffles*hugsback*

padawanewan July 22 2007, 16:34:16 UTC

You already know it's Remus that I was in HP for. I knew Snape would be a goner and vindicated. JK isn't subtle.

Remus dying was a bit of a shock. I am still a bit numb from the book.

dizilla July 22 2007, 21:20:48 UTC

Well I *hoped* he wouldn't have died but I was hoping for a grander death. Kills me that both Remus and Tonks die. *hugs*

It's sort of JKR's bitchslap version of a dubious happy ending. Look I have the werewolf with the kid and wife...before I killed him off and had him hangin' with his boys.

*big hugs* Why kill Remus is still my question.

*hugs* I am still reeling myself, but my trust in this fabulous snupin comm to pull us up and out of the doldrums is pretty strong. The hurt feels pretty awful though. *another hug*

dizilla July 22 2007, 21:25:13 UTC

*hugs back* Yeah it does feel mighty awful. First time I've been so emotionally vested in a book series and first time I have people to talk to with. Other book series I don't think I was as into (as I didn't fanfic or discuss or look up fandom related items) that had such powerful endings or journeys, I had to go through it alone. So thankfully you all are here.
