I know I sound like really evil but I sorta wanted either Voldamort to win or something like that. I still didn't want George to die though. I'm really bummed about that. I also wish Rowling would have told more about the end. I know it leaves room for your own imagination which is good and all but I sorta wish she'd gone a little further anyway.

Oh yeah. And I'm really shocked that Rowling said Dumbledore is gay. He was always one of my favorite characters and to find that out is a really really big bummer. It's wrong, absolutely wrong!

I guess I wanted it to be dragged out a little longer. Dragging feet is what I'm good at. LOL.

It ended pretty brilliantly. I suppose I never expected Harry to live, but I'm glad he did. (George didn't die, it was Fred.) I wish she didn't include the epilogue. It felt so...rushed and so...concluding. I wanted either an open ending, or an ending that was more so fully-written.
Likewise, I thought that it should have went on much longer. When it ended, I cried so badly. No more Harry Potter. Lol.
And the revealation of Dumbledore, I thought that even though it wasn't the wisest move, I fully support JKR in it. It's like proclaiming that she's pro-homosexual. It's a big step to make. She knew it would anger the Christians, but she still did it. I think it was really cool of her to do so.

I liked the ending. We knew that some of our favorite characters were going to die. It wouldn't have been realistic if everyone on the side of GOOD had lived. I was sad when George, Mad Eye, Tonks and Lupin died. I also hated it when Sirius and Dumblemore died in other books.
Having said that, I would have loved to have gotten more details about anything and everyone. When you get attached to characters as much as most Harry Potter fans are,(myself included!) nothing would ever be enough.

I liked the ending.
I did not understand the skinned baby -- what was that all about? Remove that. And the "Dumbledore is gay" thing? What a stupid bit of social campaigning -- she didn't have the courage to put it into her book, yet she later comes up with it -- irrelevant, transparent, unnecessary.

Should have? You didn't like the actual ending? I thought it was great. Voldemort's arrogance and refusal to understand, much less accept, the power of love resulted in his own downfall. Harry and friends go on to live reasonable normal lives. What more did you want?

It should have ended exactly the way Rowling intended - it was HER creation after all.

Harry and Luna!
him and Ginny was way to predictable, and so was Ron and Hermione

I think there should have been about 150 less pages of Harry and his friends camping and arguing abd Hermoine's magic bag. Then there should have been proper death scenes for the major characters. The way she did it by just telling you who was dead and tossing their corpses on tables at Hogwarts was absurd and ludicrous. Major characters deserve better from their authors. It was as though she just randomly chose which characters to die.
