obligatory Deathly Hallows post

Finished.

I liked it, a lot. Much better than the previous book.


Yes, the epilogue mildly annoyed me but "Whatever" - it's her world and I realized where she was going with that and accepted it last book. I do agree she could have left it out completely.

Regarding the death(s) and the stupidity and senselesness of them that everyone is bewailing: it's a war, people die in stupid and senseless ways. It actually made me accept the way things happened better.

The BIG death that has everyone all kerfuffled? Someone came to an erroneous conclusion and followed through on it, it certainly came back to kick him in the ass, didn't it?

How has this messed with my canon? Not at all. I live for the AU so I am not worried. I do hope that certain stories will not be abandoned because of this. Like happened last time.
