gioiamia gave me the go ahead, so here we go: chapter by chapter discussion of Deathly Hallows. I'm just going to post an overview of the chapter, and then we can discuss it in the comments. Write about what you liked, what you didn't like, questions the chapter answered for you, etc. I guess the same rules as for the community apply: be nice, everyone's

I wonder how many Bellatrix/Voldemort fics are going to be going around after this book? ;)
I know that Muggle Studies has been mentioned in previous books because Hermione was taking it for awhile, but was Charity Burbage ever mentioned? She was kind of a random death, I thought.
Not a lot to say about this chapter. A necessary beginning, but nothing to big happening yet.

My son is eight, and we've been reading through the series since last summer. We're finishing up OoTP right now. HBP is my favorite book, so I'm excited to read it to him, but I'm kind of apprehensive at the same time, because it's very dark. He knows that Dumbledore dies, because he heard it back when HBP came out, but he doesn't know that it's at Snape's hands. And there is a LOT in this book that is too old for him. By the time we've made it through HBP he'll be at least nine, so we'll see then.

Burbage's death is unnecessary, though we do find out why Voldemort deems it necessary later in the book.
And the Malfoys...well, something is up. Also, if Bellatrix and Voldemort weren't evil, I'd 'ship them.
This chapter sets the tone (and begins the body count) for the book. A great many questions arise, and I had to find out more.

also, this chapter really brought to my accention that all the death eaters can love. well, i mean the important ones. lucius and narcissa love each other, as displayed by the holding of the wrist, and htey love draco, and even bellatrix, i believe she wholeheartedly loves voldemort. snape of course, loves too, as we all know. just thought it was interesting that even voldy's most ardent followers can do something he can't.
