I thought Snape was simplified too much for the ending.
But that's a discussion for another thread

Yep that it is Joel so I wont post my opinion here.

It made me feel sorry for him actually. I really hated him after what he did in Half Blood Prince but felt sorry for him after Dallows.

He is a tragic character when it is all said and done.

Ginny's OK, but not a patch on Hermione.

I'm indifferent to Ginny. She was introduced as a character in Chamber, one of very many childish elements in the most childish book of the series. For the rest of the books she remained a character whom I could never take seriously.

I was rooting for Cho a long time, hoping Rowling after Goblet would show her as mature and strong. So much for the hope...

I like Ginny and the idea of ginny and harry, though i am a bit confused at the fact that in books 3-5 she was a minor character and has now become a main character.

Ah, who cares, she rocks.

I liked Ginny until somewhere around book 6. I don't hate her, but there's something about Ginny/Harry that I don't like.

What don't you like about it, Lith, out of interest?

I would hazard a guess that its about them being together and the way Rowling wrote Harry's feelings about her. I didn't like it that much.

Lith · 1st January 2008, 02:07 AM

Uh, well, in short, I don't know.

I like Harry. And I like Ginny. But by book 6, it begins to feel as though Ginny is only there to be a part of Harry's life, like she got cool only in order to be with Harry. That and she's more than a bit like Lily, which gets rather Oedipal. Maybe (probably) JKR intended for Harry and his generation to mirror his parent's generation, but it just rings a bit hollow.

As for who I would see with Harry, if not Ginny- probably some heretofore unknown character that he meets a couple years after the end of Book 7- I don't like all loose ends being tied up too tightly, and surely there are more witches and wizards in England than those that attended Hogwart's.

Who said it had to be a witch or wizard he ends up with?

Controversial!

I don't know it just seemed like a bold statement, like:

WHO SAID IT HAD TO BE A WITCH OR WIZARD HE ENDS UP WITH, YOU BIGOTED A-HOLES?!

I guess its not really. Anyhoo, it sucks being a muggle.
