Yes, I've read the book. The epilogue is Gladstone-worthy. So is the romance. I'd be tempted to say the shippers on this site could do better.

The three ships. Kinda like the Mayflower and all those.

I liked the revelation on Dumbly, nice to know he wasn't a total Gary Stu in his youth.

Unfortunately, the over all quality of the story had to be ruined by the epilogue...

I agree, I didn't really like the epilouge. I want to know what happened to Luna, who is minister of magic, what the trio do for a living, ect.

That said, I loved the book otherwise. And I agree with Mwamba, I liked knowing Dumbledore's history...it made him seem much more like a real person than a Stu.

Yeah, the epilouge was bad... :sick:

I agree with Ianna, that I also want to know what happens afterwords, including the reconstruction of Hogwarts(and Britian in general), and rounding up the rest of the death eaters, etc. I think this might work well as something published on her website, because it wouldn't be enough to ruin the ending(like a full sequal might), but just enough to tie up loose ends.

Other than that I also really liked, it especially Dumbledore's past.

I wouldn't have minded if the epilogue was simply:

And Harry Potter married Ginny Weasley.....blahblah.

So long as all the major (and minor) characters were covered.

Hermione. :)

Just because she and Ron has kids doesn't mean there's a possibility they got divorced.

They were married, you know it.

I would say Luna...as she's the only major character (of the kids) not mentioned in the epilogue.

But that'd be too weird.

Ianna, is that really you?! That would be really creepy...I think he'd end up cursing her to much.

Maybe he's changed.

And I wasn't really shipping there, honest. I was just trying to find out about Luna. I mean, even some random kid of Fleur's is mentioned.

It wouldn't have been Luna, because he would have recognized her.

I think it's safe to say she's another red haired woman that he married out of desperation and loneliness.

And then Ginny will divorce Harry and hire a hitman for the wife. And Draco will thank her by marrying her ;)

And then Luna will marry Harry?

Nah.

And I knew he would have, but I wanted her to fit in somewhere.

It wasn't.

It would have been if there was a muggle song played.
